It seems to me unfortunate that our culture is being sucked off into such distractions of language (word meaning changes, pronoun selection, scientific constructs), given the reality that words make up the overwhelming majority of our public and private discourse--relationally, legally, economically, and especially spiritually. Now with gender fluidity banging at the doors of the Church, Christians are on the dime to respond. This, then is what I like most in this article: the call to bear witness, in love, to the truth of God's Word. I'm reminded of Luther's words: "We must recognize in our hearts and believe that we receive everything from Him and that He is our God; then out with it, and freely and openly confess this before the world--preach, praise, glorify, and give thanks! This is the real and only worship of God, the true office of the priest, and the finest, most acceptable offering." (Luther's Works 14:32) Getting caught up with the He/Him pronouns seems superfluous when we recognize God's overwhelming use the personal (and in English, at least, GENDER NEUTRAL) pronoun: I! "I Am", He says. "I am with you always", He says. "I am the way, the truth, and the life", He says. "I love you with an everlasting love", He says. Or how about the "ME" pronoun He uses: "Come unto Me... and I will give you rest", He says. God's focus is theocentric to be sure but He always aims it at people. Our focus is egocentric and we always aim it at our autonomy. The difference noted here is at the very heart of the social and political disruption we are currently witnessing. All the more reason to heed Luther's admonition: "Out with it!" Or as St. Peter writes: "...always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you...with gentleness and respect." I Peter 3:15
