The Law of God, which is taught in schools, is not intended to give children knowledge of God (it presupposes this knowledge to already exist); he gives children only knowledge about God. And since knowledge about God, like any other knowledge, is acquired only by the mind and memory, the study of God’s Law in school usually becomes an abstract, external assimilation of religious truths that does not penetrate the depths of the soul.

Knowledge of God is different from knowledge of God.

Knowledge of God is the direct perception of God with an inner sense, knowledge of God is the property of the mind and memory.

The Gospel speaks about the knowledge of God: This is eternal life, yes they know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You sent (John 17:3). The prophet Isaiah speaks about the same thing: The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master’s manger; but Israel does not know [Me], My people do not understand (Isa. 1, 3).

And the very word “religion” means not a simple concept of God, but a living connection between living beings - man and God .
