Breaking Tradition
My posts and videos have been running interrupted for a long time now. Many years it has been. There have been many times that I had the idea to write about things that the Creator has put on my heart, but I did not want to break the consistency of my weekly Hebrew portion as Shabbat is about to start. That is changing as of today.
He is Clearly Perceived
Most people, from an early age, have an innate knowledge of G-d as Shaul tells us in the B'rit Hadashah (renewed covenant).
For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Imagine someone suddenly faced with the reality that there is one G-d who is a spirit being. He cannot be seen, yet He is plainly evident in nature's design and instructions on how to avoid destruction were laid out in His Word.
They will plead, "But I didn't know!" and they are without excuse. They had seen it, and decided to believe something else.
The most recent belief that has grown in the popularity of feminism, is that G-d is a female. This is not that far off.
His Feminine Side
The Creator has made us in his image. More exactly, "Let us make man in Our own image."
I was reading today in Hebrew - Second Chronicles 15 - where the prophet was about to talk to Asa (the name means 'he does'} and the Hebrew phrase stuck with me.
ha-yetah ah-lav ruach elohim
She was - upon him - Spirit of - G-d
The people who knew in their hearts that G-d is female are correct, in that, the Ruach haKodesh (Spirit of holiness) is indeed female.
Clear perception was at work when these same feminists decided to speak of a female god. Every time in history when G-d spoke to men and women, it was a feminine being communicating with them. Whenever G-d appeared to mankind, it was the ben haAdam (son of man) that did the appearing. The Creator himself has appeared too at times.

There is a mountain in the land of Midian that is still scorched today as a result of one of those events.
Do with this as you will.

Also, shekhinah represents the feminine attributes of the presence of God, shekhinah being a feminine word in Hebrew, based especially on readings of the Talmud.

There seem to be many names for God. Or maybe there are just many gods (Elohim)
Shekhinah is also the divine feminine presence of god.
