This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Is God sexist?

00:49

Sometimes the question is, is the Bible sexist? The argument here is that a lot of people seem to think that somehow to emphasize one sex or gender over the other is somehow wrong.

01:04

Now, this has really changed, at least in America, in the last 10 years because the whole idea of gender has changed.

01:12

But this used to be an argument because God refers to himself in a male gender and seems to deal with men.

01:19

And therefore, people somehow like to say that God or the Bible is sexist because it seems, in their mind, to put men in front of women or above women.

01:30

However, when we look in the Bible, we do not see that men are superior in any way to women.

01:38

There were cultural things that were going on, and the fact that men would be the ones that would do the work and women would be the ones to stay at home is going to, by nature, mean that men will be discussed more than women.

01:51

But is it sexist for God to refer to himself as a male? Well, here we have the issue that God chose to create men first.

02:00

And that becomes the issue. He wants male headship. And this is something that theologically we understand. And this is the way

02:07

God created it. So we have to let God be God. The issue is when we want to be

02:12

God. Now, in our day and age, people that want to say, well, we should accept people the way they identify, well, God identifies as a man.

02:19

Therefore, accept the way he wants to be called. This podcast is part of the Striving for Eternity ministry.
