Hence, whether 6 days, 6 thousand years or millions of years, it does not touch G-d, His eternal nature, His almighty power, His Son and Spirit, His Word – the Gospel! So why such obsession with it as though our very salvation hinges on it having been 6 literal 24 hour days? In what or in whom does the faith of such persons rest? On what or on whom do they focus?¹⁰

Yet others feel compelled to prove that G-d is not only masculine but also FEMININE¹¹. They go to incredible length of researching and studying to prove their “enlightened idea” that G-d is Father, and G-d Mother, and G-d Son and G-d Spirit, saying that the Son’s Name is “Michael” (which is actually the name of the leading archangel) and the Spirit’s Name “Gabrielle” (feminizing the arch angel Gabriel’s name, making of Him the “Holy Spirit”). These folk – especially the Mormons - preach the Gospel of salvation by insisting that G-d is a “Mother” or married to a mother god¹², and that wicked religious leaders removed the feminine part of G-d in the Scriptures making G-d a chauvinist, since they themselves were chauvinists. 

Their whole focus is on proving this point, obsessing with it, as though their salvation and faith hinges on proving that G-d is feminine, or at least also feminine, and that in fact the angels were originally feminine and that it was men who transformed them into masculine beings¹³. 

And what, may I ask, has all of this to do with salvation? How does this touch G-d Who is Spirit? 

Apparently such individuals fail to grasp what God’s salvation and its eternal workings are all about; nor do they grasp the divine nature of the eternal, almighty, only living G-d Who IS ALL THINGS TO ALL MEN¹⁴, independent of and regardless of gender. The fact is that G-d, as “Father,” is the protective, guiding, providing, authority figure, and as “Mother” the tender-loving, compassionate One, meaning He clearly manifests these attributes in the life of a believer. 

I, like many others, had great difficulty initially to relate to G-d the Father because I had had absolutely no relationship with my earthly father who did not care for me and whom I hardly knew way into adulthood. But as Yeshua revealed the Father to me and I came to know Him more and more both from Scriptures and experientially, I came to relate to Him ever more fully, without fear of rejection, disapproval or punishment. I often see myself cuddled at His Bosom in His everlasting arms , my ear attentive to what is on His heart. Nothing is more comforting and soothing to me than this, making me feel safe and at perfect peace¹⁵. I do not relate to G-d as Mother, but I know that He can manifest Himself in complete parenthood as is written:

“When father and mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up”¹⁶; i.e., He can meet my need for father and mother, being both parents in One, for the simple reason that He is omni-potent, omni-present and omni-scient, the Great and ONLY “I AM Who and What I AM.”

Furthermore, when G-d created Adam, He said “Let US create man in OUR Image and after OUR Likeness,” a saying which hints that G-d is not only a Father, singular. Having created Adam male and female, I have always felt that the union of a man and a woman in holy matrimony exhibits G-d’s unique nature more completely, more perfectly, than a single individual does.

To go to obsessive length to prove G-d’s “feminine” side or that He is actually “Mother” G-d, making of it a doctrine, is objectionable. Such doctrine misses the mark concerning what is truly relevant about G-d’s all-encompassing divine nature, and veers off into becoming a cult.

“Hear O Israel, the L-RD our G-d the LORD is One.” This is the banner of the only Living and Eternal G-d, the banner to which I, my people and engrafted Gentiles rally.

Furthermore, others feel that salvation as we know it is not enough, and that it could not be that man lives but once and then comes judgment. Surely, man must have been provided with more than one chance in case they missed it in this one life – with yet another life. Here, reincarnation is the answer! That’s it! Man can save himself, or mess up one life and say, well, so what I missed it. I am sorry, I didn’t know any better, now give me another chance in yet another life. 

And they, too, go to extremes in trying to “prove” from all sorts of resources and even the Scriptures that reincarnation¹⁷ is in fact true, Scriptural, spiritual and from G-d. Indeed, there is not a cult or erroneous doctrine that has not claimed “absolute proof” based upon Scriptures. Satan himself quoted Scriptures to the Son of G-d, albeit out of context.
