IMO Bill adequately addressed the issue under
discussion. IMO you are revisiting the issue as if you'd not factored in the
reading of Bill's post.

Subject: [TruthTalk] God female?
cd: Here is another Bibical spirit that is a
male?
1Sa 28:8 And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men
with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee,
divine unto me by the familiar spirit,
and bring me him
up, whom I shall name unto thee.
1Sa 28:9 And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou
knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar
spirits, and the wizards, out of the land:
wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
1Sa 28:10 And Saul swore to her by the LORD, saying,
As the LORD
liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
1Sa 28:11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up
unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
1Sa 28:12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spoke
to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.
1Sa 28:13 And the king said unto her, Be not afraid:
for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods ascending out
of the earth.
1Sa 28:14 And he said unto her, What form
is he of? And she said, An old
man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And
Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he
stooped with his
face to the ground, and bowed himself.
1Sa 28:15 And Samuel said to
Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up?
And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against
me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by
prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make
known unto me what I shall do.
1Sa 28:16 Then said Samuel,
Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and
is become thine enemy?
1Sa 28:17 And the LORD hath done to him, as he spoke by
me: for the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy
neighbor, even to
David:
1Sa 28:18 Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the
LORD, nor executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD
done this thing unto thee this day.
