Of course he does 😏


If he is omniscient, he cannot help but have read it.

Seek the Kingdom of God first, then your prayers may be answered.

Maybe it is God's will that one first wins the lottery, then realizes, "I should use this money to HELP people!"

Maybe. Although I would be surprised if God got involved with that. Is all pure luck if someone wins. Nothing to do with prayers or God.

Why? Why would you be surprised?

I can easily imagine a scenario where, being God, I am "omniscient", and I realize, if person X were to win millions of dollars, he would be moved to give said millions to charity.

Maybe he can and it is possible, but the evidence does not support that.

What are you on about "evidence"?

This is a hypothetical scenario. It doesn't matter if it has ever happened.

I like that 😉

Being omniscient he already knew what was
going to be written and therefore had no need to read it.

Anyway - not sure he can read or write. He dictated the Bible!


LoL

I believe in the divine inspiration of the Bible.
I do not believe God "dictated" all of it like Moslems believe Allah dictated the Quran to Mohammed.

There are many books in the Bible that do not contain "Thus Says the Lord" direct dictation style speaking.
