Can We Change God’s Pronouns to They/Them?

Can we change God's pronouns to "They/Them"? When the Bible uses the pronouns "He" or "Him" referring to the Father, Son, or Holy Spirit, are we able to change or tweak those pronouns? In other words, is God male?

Are Covenant Children Christians?

How should we view our children? Are the children of believing parents Christians, or do we merely hope one day that they will become Christians? When we baptize infants of believing parents, are we saying, "God's promise rests upon my covenant child and I hope he or she becomes a Christian one day?" or are we saying, "I'm baptizing my covenant child because he or she is a Christian and already has the Holy Spirit?" Cornelius Van Til said, “Before God our children are personalities from and before their birth; we are chosen in Him before the foundation of the world. Moreover, I must regard all children of believers as children of God till the contrary appear to be true.” Should this be our approach as well? 

In this episode, Pastors Zac and Brandon discuss the status and nature of a covenant child.
