December ‘96

    The God of the Bible created the universe out of nothing. The universe is not God nor an extension of Him, nor is He part of it. Therefore, to speak of God as “She” or to refer to “Mother Earth” or “Mother Nature” or even “Mother/Father God” promotes a grave heresy. A woman nurtures her offspring within her womb and gives birth out of herself, precisely what God does not do. Nor is man, though in God’s image (Gn 1:26, 27), an extension of God or part of God but a separate being entirely.
