	The Deity of God, Part 6, God and Satan, by John H Essex (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		IN THIS SERIES of studies upon the Deity of God, we have endeavored to show that we have a God Who is Supreme at all times, never for one moment giving up the glory of His supremacy to another.
		Our God is a God Who is operating all in accord with the counsel of His own will, progressing in stately and unfaltering steps towards the consummation of a purpose conceived in the depths of His own heart and mind before the eons began.
		This action of God is used by Paul as an illustration of the way He shines in our hearts, replacing the innate darkness by "an illumination of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ" (2 Cor.3:6).

	psychology of ritual
		The God and Goddess are seen as either mother and son or lovers, depending on the time of year, but each of these relationships is symbolic, not literal.
		In the winter (specifically, at Yule), the Goddess is the mother of the God and gives birth to him; in the spring, they are young and growing into adulthood; in the summer they become lovers and inspire the fertility of nature; in autumn they become elders, approaching death as nature declines and daytime becomes shorter.
		Gods and Goddesses are not literal, but are otherwise very real — their characteristics, personalities, abilities, gifts, and insights exist and are encompassed within Universal energy, which cannot be limited or deficient.

	About The Universal Love Feminist Church
		Of course God was spoken of in reverence as our "Father"...to have referred to God as anything but male would have been tantamount to blasphemy.
		We must understand that God's love is not reserved only for those who blindly obey what we have been taught from infancy to adulthood...it is given freely and lovingly to all God's children, regardless of race, creed, sex, or color.
		Anyone who believes in God, in any form or language, may enter the kingdom of the God they believe in...and no one shall be excluded from salvation simply because she or he does not submit to the biases and prejudices which bear so heavily upon her or him.

	Apologetics Press - Is God Male?
		God’s “gender” has been a hot topic for approximately the last two decades, owing in large part to the impact of the women’s liberation movement and the sexual revolution.
		In 1 Samuel 15:29, God Himself announced: “The Strength of Israel...is not a man.” Moses wrote in Numbers 23:19: “God is not a man...neither the son of man.” Hosea repeated that affirmation: “I am God, and not man” (11:9).
		The masculine pronoun safeguards (1) the transcendence of God against the illusion that nature is born from God as a mother rather than created and (2) the grace of God against the illusion that we can somehow save ourselves—two illusions ubiquitous and inevitable in the history of religion (1994, p.
