The result is generally imperceptible, unless specifically pointed out - and the result is a text that works for everyone: a text without distraction, and a text without the negative effect of the constant repetition of the default male pronoun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e'The Spirit of Truth will come to you, and guide you into all truth; honouring me, by taking what is mine, and making it known to you; disclosing to you the things that are to come.

This far into the 21st century, default-male pronouns are distracting, inappropriate, and even harmful. \u003ci\u003eThe Inclusive Language Bible\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates that they are entirely unnecessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJesus takes he\/him pronouns, and the Father-Son metaphor within the Trinity is retained; that conversation is left for the pulpit and the bible study, rather than being attempted in the text itself.
