The God of the Bible is a Plural God - World Mission Society Church of God

The God of the Bible is a Plural God


Until now, We learned God Father, Christ Ahnsahnghong.
Then Let's study God Mother existence.  
Through the Bible,  Let's comfirm.
If There Is God the Father, then why isnt there God the Mother?




Gen. 1:26-27 "Then God said, Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.


So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male & female he created them."
Some may argue that this is refering to the angels. To such claim:  


Isa. 44:24 “This is what the LORD says
your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb:
I am the LORD,
who has made all things,
who alone stretched out the heavens,
who spread out the earth by myself,”God emphasized that He created everything by Himself. So no help from angels!



Most claim that God spoke plurally because it’s referring to the Holy Trinity.
Such a claim shows that people do not fully understand what the Holy Trinity is; that it means that God the Father Jehovah, the Son Jesus and the Holy Spirit Ahnsahnghong are one person.
So even if He were “talking to Himself” why speak in plural?
Also, looking at the Holy Trinity, God the Father is a male image, the Son Jesus is male, and the Holy Spirit based on the New Testament is a male:


John 14:26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.


John 16:7 But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.


So why did God speak in a plural sense when He made mankind in His image? The answer is in verse 27:
Gen. 1:27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.

Since we call the male image of God Father, naturally what should we call theimage of God?


Can you tell me the answer?
