Question 227

Good Morning Father I hope you're well. I'd like to ask if God is male as Adam was made in their image I assumed he would be and seen as we call God Father and Son. Thank you 

 

Answer to Question 227

 

I don't think God is male or female, he is simply God, but as you have pointed out he made Adam in his image, but also Christ who is God came into the world as a male human being and made known to us God the Father which is also masculine.
