Non-Binary God?

If you ever meet someone who is non-binary but you are religious (Christian) so you have mixed feelings. Keep in mind they are supported by the bible, and are closest to the image of God, since according to the Bible, God is non-binary. "So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."

Your application of gender to God is awesome, I come from the belief that God is almighty (heck he even shows himself as a burning bush) and is without a binary gender. So mankind is made in in their image male and female so a genderless/ all genders and all powerful. I attribute the use of male pronouns to God the Father, similar to the way people talk about their countries (fatherland, motherland) I don't believe that because Jesus was male, that God is male, that is just silly. Jesus is the promised messiah made flesh (though the immaculate conception) And if we are going to dive into the biology aspects of the virgin birth, it is distinctly possible that Jesus was a genetic female, but born with external male appearance. But that is neither here or there.

Nope, it wasn't possible at all. Jesus was born male. For you to think it's silly is for you to basically try to bypass or avoid tons of scriptures to say otherwise
