Do you both agree that God is Father and not mother?
I don't know whether we agree or not, but I believe God is definitely "Father" and I probably use the term in a far more literal sense than most people posting on this forum.
IMHO - The SPIRIT (John 4:24) came and dwelt in the holy/sinless human body and taught for 3 years and bore ALL the pain on the cross.
But, since GOD is eternal and could not experience death...THE SPIRIT had to withdraw from the human body...in order for the Christ to die for the SIN of humankind. And this is where Jesus, the son of man...uttered...Father, Father...why have you forsaken me! The son of man felt the pain only for a MOMENT...
I copy/pasted this OP (mine) from a different thread to prevent retyping again...
Okay, we're sort of going off topic here, but are you saying that Jesus only felt pain for a moment? Are you saying that the Son = the Father? That Jesus forsook Himself or commended His spirit into His own hands? I am clearly confused about what you're saying.

Katzur...whether we agree or not in some aspects...we are still God's warriors...and every 2 cents worth we contribute, is thought provoking...a learning process meant for all HIS children...
I have and will always appreciate ALL who have contributed sincerely...aspects of God's Word different than my own. After all...we are taught to abide by the two commands: "LOVE GOD AND NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF...DO THIS AND YE SHALL LIVE" Luke 10:27-28

If you were talking about God and said She would you be wrong or just mistaken or saying blasphamy? I know Jesus said Our Father in Heaven. Is God male or female or neither or both?
The triune God is neither. However:
Jesus who is God is male
The Father...has a male name
The Holy Spirit is neither
That is what seperates those on the left from the right. This isn't a puzzle for christians because they don't ask this.
Well, maybe they don't ask it because they think God doesn't want them to know the answer. It's just what they've always been told. You know, God's a mystery. Stop asking questions.
And then they change the subject to who's a sheep and who's a goat.

I think HE is Father too.
