“The reason that millions of young men are resonating with the sorts of things that people like Jordan Peterson are saying is that they are crying out to once again hear that it is OK to be male, to be a man, to be manly, and to be masculine. They want to be who they were meant to be.”
(Bill Muehlenberg – Culture Watch) It is time to get back to the biblical Jesus:
Throughout much of the West, we have forgotten what it is to be a man. Or worse yet, we have demonised men and manliness. We have condemned men and masculinity. This is proving to be a recipe for disaster. And the Christian church should have no part in this. We need to get back to the Bible.
The fact that the Bible overwhelmingly portrays God in terms of maleness, be it in his attributes, actions and designations, does not mean there are no feminine terms ever used about him. Sometimes we hear things like this: “As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you” (Isaiah: 66:13).
But in the vast majority of cases, we find God being called Father, and we see masculine names and masculine pronouns used about him. See more on this topic here.
The same with Jesus. He was born a male, and lived as a man, and is always designated as God’s son. We never read in Scripture that Jesus is the daughter of God, or that God is his mother. But we live in an age where there is mass confusion – much of it deliberate – over things like sex and gender. And there has been a massive feminisation of culture in the West. See here for example:
