The Nature of God and Pronouns

The podcast delves into the appropriate language for referring to God, emphasizing that revelation dictates how God has made Himself known. It discusses the notion that God transcends human categories of gender, leading to the question of the appropriateness of using masculine pronouns like 'He' when addressing God. While acknowledging God's masculine imagery in Scripture, the conversation also touches on the complexities of using terms like 'God self,' which some use to highlight God's transcendence over gender, though the speakers express discomfort with such formulations. Hence, they affirm that using masculine pronouns aligns with biblical revelation, reflecting God's personal nature, rather than viewing Him through an abstract lens.
