Why didn't God come down as a female?

[Bendito]

I always thought cos it was the men that needed more help.

ROFL Good answer!

Perhaps God simply wanted to test the charity of everyone toward everyone else without regard to gender. God is certainly no respecter of persons, but He inspired the writing of the Book we call the Bible and He created both male and female.

For what God thinks about charity see these verses:

1Co 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
1Co 13:5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
1Co 13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
1Co 13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

Jesus is known as the "last Adam" not the last Eve. (1 Cor 15:45)

 

[JoniSteele]

Basically, to start with and, no offense, no one would have followed a woman, also, the next thing that comes to mind is that Jesus fulfilled ancient scripture to be the Messiah and a Messiah was a male....God would have had to had changed that before he created the foundation: God is the father not the Mother and he sent his son not the daughter...the Holy Spirit created a male from a virgin. To theologically tie the Bible together, God is always referred to in the masculine tense although he has no biological body, he is spirit John 4:24 . And Jesus would have had to be male for our proper inheritance within God's Kingdom....lineage and inheritance was through the male not the female.

There's a group that says He came back now as a Chinese woman. Someone befriended me on Facebook and I looked up her church. No way! How can they be that dumb to fall for that?
