Is God going to teach me math through the laws of physics by researching science online or do I need need to go to college. I believe that since I'm a Christian and I know God he will teach me all I need to know about the universe. I find it hard to say I know God intellectually because he has so much knowledge and power and love. How can I comprehend whom he created me. I'm 31 years old now and God is eternal. God teaching me math is like a college professor teaching a newborn kid advanced calculus and advanced physics. I am very dumbfounded how the universe exists.

God helps those who help themselves.
I've never considered God as a maths teacher before.

^ Well said.
God helps those who help themselves.

And Christ never pretended to be a math teacher.

And I think that you (original poster) have it backwards.

You don't ask god to teach you math.

You study math to get a deeper understand of the universe, and possibly also of its creator.

Galileo said "Math is the alphabet by which God has written the Universe".
