“In the world created by the triune God of Scripture, the boundaries don’t blur, like a watercolor left out in the rain. God divides, and he loves to call those divisions good. God created heaven and earth, which created the fundamental division between that which is God and that which is not God. The gulf there is an infinite one, and God still called that which was on the other side of the divide from him good. Having done this much, God was on a roll, and he divided the sun and moon, the sea and dry land, the earth and sky, and he kept calling all of it good (Gen. 1:4, 10, 18). And then, at the pinnacle of creation, male and female he created them, in the image of God he created them (Gen. 1:27). God made Adam into tow, so that he could bring Adam and Eve back into one — with a richer unity this time, one that presupposes genuine division” (Why Ministers Must Be Men, pp. 48-49).
