O.K., having perhaps watched too much science fiction, I sort of think that attributing traditional human sex or gender to an omniscient and all-powerful being who created the Universe is almost pointless. Our Creator probably cannot be adequately described with the vocabulary of any known human tongue.

That said, I think that the original Biblical texts are pretty clear on the matter of God the Father. And no one back then had any concept of "non-binary." And while I am sure that God wants us to love our LGBTQUERTY siblings, I don't think that God intended his Creations to live that way.

Hate the sins, love the sinners, and pray for their conversion.

No, an finite man cannot comprehend anything about an infinite creator other than what God chooses to reveal about himself. But God has chosen to reveal much about himself both through his creation and his divine revelation in scripture. He covers these matters.

God the Father self identifies as male all through the Bible as does the Son and the Holy Spirit. Male pronouns are used throughout. I take God at His Word that male gender is the appropriate way to address and think of Him. The Bible is not ambiguous on this matter or on what God thinks of sexual perversions
