Have you ever heard of the perfect prayer that Jesus Christ taught his disciples?

It’s called the “Pater Noster”; not the “Pater et Mater Noster”.

How many times did Jesus Christ refer to God, the Father, in the feminine sense?

How many times did Jesus Christ refer to God, The Holy Ghost, the Paraclete” in the feminine sense?

And how many times did Jesus Christ refer to Himself, the Second Person (i.e., God) of the Holy Trinity, in the feminine sense?

I'm not disagreeing with you. You won't find me arguing about any of that.

The language of the Sacred Scriptures and the Liturgy of the Church very clearly recognizes a divinely-revealed gender identity (not sex but "gender" identity) of Our Lord God the Father, Our Lord God the Son, and Our Lord God the Holy Spirit.

As for Jesus Christ, he has a biological sex --- unambiguously male --- as well.

I am absolutely sure that these particular, gendered words are revealed, and are providential.
