God’s Right to Use Male Pronouns for Himself

Our culture has been through a very interesting time, and one of the things we see that people are doing is trying to argue that we shouldn't have male pronouns for God. They are trying to change translations, to remove he when it refers to God, arguing that somehow it's sexist.

But let's think about that. Is that consistent? Because the culture is also saying that anyone gets to choose their own pronouns, so anyone should be able to choose a pronoun if they're a female, and yet they want to be called he, they should be allowed to be called he.

Well, if we take those two points of information and combine them together, what do we get? Well, we get the fact that liberalism, that is trying to argue that anyone can choose their own pronoun, has a problem when they want to try to say that somehow using a male pronoun for God is sexist, because if you think about it, God has selected his own pronoun.

He has selected a male pronoun. Therefore, if the liberals want to be consistent, they should call God he, and not try to rename him she, because he identifies as a he and not a she. This is the thing that you end up seeing, is that they want to recreate the pronoun for God based on what they want it to be, but they want to use their own pronouns when it comes to what they want it to be.

Notice a pattern. The thing that they always want is whatever they want and everyone else should submit to them. That's not tolerance, folks. That's actually intolerance. If God wants to be a he, then he should be a he.
