The Holy Spirit = Feminine?

I once heard someone I know say "I love the Holy Spirit so much."

I loved what they said. I know this person to be very close to God. I began exploring what they meant by love in that situation because it sounded like "I love the Holy Spirit more than Abba and Jesus." Not that there's anything wrong with that, we all have our favourites but I didn't think that that was the meaning behind it.

I think the meaning was "I can express myself to the Holy Spirit in a deeper way than I do with Abba or Jesus and this makes me get butterflies in my stomach." But I might be overthinking this whole thing.


It makes sense because throughout the Bible, the Holy Spirit is represented with personal attributes that almost put an invisible line between this person of the trinity and Abba and Jesus.


The image below shows the usual gender stereotypes. Meaning most persons of that gender have those attributes. I don't believe anyone has all the attributes so don't feel weird if you're a woman that never cries lol, I'm easily hurt emotionally and I'm proud of it! But I don't cry a lot. Eww. Alpha mentality always!!!

The 'cruel' could be seen as Father God issuing judgement upon the nations in Jeremiah and Ezekiel or Jesus issuing judgement against cities and pharisees that rejected Him in the gospels which isn't really cruel, it's justice but some people may see it as cruel.


So, here are a few examples of the Bible portraying the Holy Spirit with feminine attributes...

..................


Genesis 6:3 So the LORD said, "My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years."

When a child goes into drugs or something, it's the mother that runs after them with the father setting hard boundaries. So the Spirit was contending with and persuading people in that day to change their ways before it was too late. This happened for a long time as Father God was patient for the repentance of the people of that age.


..................

John 14:16 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you to the age


Jesus was the original helper of the disciples, then He says 'another Helper' will be given. I see this as a type of Adam having God as his helper, then God making him a 'helper'.


Genesis 2:18 The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.”


So now the mortal Adam had a helper, just like the immortal God has always had one in the Holy Spirit?


..................


Ephesians 4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.


This verse hints that the Holy Spirit is easily hurt emotionally.

Now, this could all be false doctrine I'm teaching and if I find out that it is I'll be sure to repent of it in the future. But for now I'm just shooting this harmless idea out there.


It's also important to remember that genders are just shadows/types of a Heavenly reality. Maybe this is could be another application of what 'Elohim' meant when they said...


Genesis 1:26 Then God [Elohim] said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness..."
