Making the Holy Spirit Female

There is enough Scripture twisting already, but some owlhoots want more so they can further their agendas. The Trinity (God in three persons, but is still one being) is denied by several, even professing Christians. Some deny that Jesus is God and make him a created being instead — Jehovah's Witnesses teach that today.

One with an interesting name is the Pneumatomachian heresy, asserting that the Holy Spirit is not God. (The JWs believe that he is God's active force.) A newer corruption of the Bible tries to make the Holy Spirit female.

Pay attention when reading the Bible, especially the New Testament. It is obvious from the text that the Holy Spirit, just like the Father and Son, is described as masculine. There are times when the way to resolve a conflict is by using the original languages. In this case, certain words and their genders are misapplied. Feminazis and others are thwarted with deeper investigation.

One way that feminist or queer theology tries to change our view of God is to refer to him with female or nonbinary language. They argue that feminine language about God in the Bible gives them a precedent for calling God “she” and “her.” Are they right?

Some try to state that the Spirit is referred to with feminine descriptors or that verbs attributed to femininity are used; therefore, the Holy Spirit is feminine. But this is a faulty conclusion based on an incomplete understanding of Hebrew (and Greek) cases.
