In fact, I think the inconsistency actually
appeals to believers who enjoy the intellectual challenge of rationalizing a tri-omni God. I recently read
The Confessions of Saint Augustine, who was a Manichee during his early adulthood. The Manichaean faith was a gnostic religion without a tri-omni God, and Augustine found Manichaeism much more reasonable than Christianity for ~9 years. But he eventually converts, and then writes something to the effect that "The Bible is full of inconsistencies, which I had found scorn-worthy as a young man, but which I grew to appreciate." Augustine was a very intelligent and well-educated man, and his
Confessions include a very creative solution to the
Problem of Evil -- centuries before later theologians came up with the idea of free will to solve the same Problem.
