For
example
“Who’s that?” or “What’s that?” and so on.
However,
in
the German language, the definite article before a noun can be
masculine,
neuter or feminine … eg the spoon is the masculine ‘der’
in der
Loffel (with an umlaut on the “o”); the knife is the neuter
das
in das Messer; and the fork is the feminine
‘die’ in die
Gabel.
How did
this
come about? No-one knows … it just is! People just accept it … and this
applies
to many languages.
However,
as
we shall see, man’s languages, being given by God, have a ‘parallel’
characteristic regarding gender.
Now, as
there is only one Bible … The King James Bible … its haters get all
high and
mighty … of course … all carrying their First Year Greek lexicon under
their
arms.
A case in
point is the following scripture where Jesus is talking to the lady at
the well
…
Ye worship
ye know not what: we know what we worship: for
salvation is of
the Jews. (John 4:22)
Bible
critics say “Shouldn’t that be who we worship?”
Furthermore,
they say …
“Fancy
calling Jesus a ‘thing’!” (Luke 1:35) … and Jesus
a ‘which’
(Matthew 1:20) … and the voice from heaven a ‘which’
(Luke 3:22) …
and people called ‘which’ John 7:39) … and the Holy
Ghost
called a ‘which’ (John 14:16; Acts 2:33; 1 Corinthians 6:19) …
and God
called a ‘which’ (Acts 15:8; Matthew 9:8)”.
But then
again, there are many examples of God and Jesus being
‘personified’
and called ‘who’ … with ‘God who’ (Genesis 35:3; 49:25)
… and ‘Jesus
who’ (Matthew 1:16) and so on.
Now, on
top
of all this, we have God the Father, and God the Son and God the Holy
Ghost …
and these three are one … they are masculine (1 John
5:7-8)!
All a bit
confusing?
“It’s no
wonder” they say “we have had to rewrite the Bible with proper pronouns
… to
get some consistency and update the Bible!”
Now, all
Greek nouns have their own distinct gender of masculine, feminine and
neuter …
with the masculine denoted by the article ‘o’; the feminine by the
article ‘a’;
and the neuter by the article ‘to’.
So Dear
Reader, if you want to know the height of hypocrisy of these Bible
critics …
look no further …
Being the
unclothed word emperors they are, King James Bible correctors ignore
the fact
that the word for “spirit’ is pneuma … and this word
is neuter.
Now, The
King James Bible correctly translates pneuma as
“itself” …
unlike bible versions incorrectly translating as ‘himself’.
Furthermore,
the ‘toilet’ paper bibles such as the ASV and the NIV (always leave one
in the
little room of relief and drainage in case you run out of the genuine
article),
call God a ‘what’ (Acts 17:23) instead of “whom” … which The King
James
correctly translates as ‘whom’!
Now, back
to
Jesus at the well … when he says of the Samaritans … “Ye worship ye
know not
what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the
Jews.” (John
4:22)
Jesus
gives
the answer that the ‘what’ is a ‘who’ … with the object of worship
being God
the Father (John 4:23).
But then
again, Jesus was merely asking … “What do you worship?” … which
is strictly
correct … as they could have been worshipping a totem pole, an animal
or an ancestor … or something else.
Jesus knew
that the Samaritans were mixed bunch with all sorts of heresies, wrong
doctrine
and beliefs that had infiltrated their worship.
But then
Jesus narrows it down … we at Jerusalem worship a person … God
the
Father (Hebrews 1:3).
Conclusion:
So here is
the explanation to all of this who, what, which, thing conjecture.
All men’s
languages ascribe a gender to their nouns of masculine, feminine and
neuter …
but God’s own special language, in the English, interchanges masculine
and
neuter according to the grammatical context … as he chooses to
do so!
God has
his own
‘above man’s’ language … unique to himself.
1. In the
Godhead, the Word (Jesus) is both masculine and neuter
… as
the Word is simply a word … and therefore, strictly speaking,
gender-free and
neuter … and as he is one with the Father, he is also masculine
(1 John
5:7-8). He’s a person, neuter and masculine … all at the same time.
2. So when
the Word enters Mary, he overtly become a masculine
baby … and
his maleness comes to the fore … the neuter Word in the flesh (John
1:14) … but
still neuter. HE IS BOTH at the same time.
3.
Furthermore,
Jesus is both the Son of God and the Son of man … a
Spirit God
manifest in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16). HE IS BOTH at the same
time.
4. In
addition, Jesus is also called the Light … and light
can be both particle
and wave at the same time (John 1:7. 8. 9). HE IS BOTH at the
same time.
Indeed,
God
and the Godhead are not human beings … and they will not be
demoted,
diminished and subject to man’s arbitrary classifications of gender.
Depending
on the context of the English
King James Bible, God has and will, determine his neuter-ness or
masculinity …
whether he will be a who, a what, a which
or a thing.
Bible
critics hate the King James, and
in attempting to fire bullets, simply shoot blanks … exposing
themselves
to being the clouds (clowns?) that they are (Jude 1:12)
God
is uncreated … unbounded … and
cannot be contained by man’s gender re-assignments (Isaiah 58:8-9).
So
God, in all his entities as
Father, Son and Holy Ghost, is a physical being, a which,
a what,
a who, a thing, a person, a masculine he,
a neuter
being, a Spirit, and an it.… how about that?
God
being God, will be a what or
a who, masculine or neuter … when he
wants and where
he wants.
But
here’s the real crime … King
James Bible correctors undermine, bully and intimidate the faith of
millions
who believe The King James Bible to be inerrant, infallible and
inspired …
without error … but these in turn, scorn and deride for those who still
believe
in an error free King James.
So
sad … so bad.
