I have absolutely no historical or theological reasoning for the following. It’s a gut feeling.
God the son, Jesus, was most definitely a dude.
Although his dad, God the Father, is referred to as “father,” my impression is parent, gender non-specific.
Somehow I get the impression the that Holy Spirit is more feminine in nature.
It is not uncommon to hear, from the pulpit in our church, of the Holy Spirit being referred to as “she.”
I let slip with that one time and my Evangelical friends all moved away from me on the bench.
