Quote:is that God, being the creator, the owner of universe, ..etc, when revealing divine scripture must be possessing an incomparable level of elquecy that allows him to express whatever he wants to express in a bifitting style.
God doesn't exist in a vacuum. There is evil in the world whose purpose is to corrupt the good.
As for what I leaned when, I am too old to remember. LOL I'm 52.
To answer your question, I doubt my kids are as familiar with the stories of the Bible as they should be. When they are old enough to knock, it will open, and it will answer their questions. I recently taught a CCD class for a week. I'm pretty sure I said things that they never heard before, yet nothing I said was new.
Revealing, as in 'revelation' is a change of perspective on the part of the reader. We need to come to God, not the other way around.
Again, this is exactly the type of argument that atheists use for why God doesn't exist. "If God is perfect, then he would do this..."
