I asked this question earlier. And received very few answers. And the answers seemed to be more concerned with convincing me the bible is the "word of God" rather than answering the question.
I'm asking when was the very first time in your life you were told or made aware the bible is not just another book, it is purportedly the "word of God."
Example: When I was (age) my (whomever) told me so. Or however you came to be aware that the bible is supposed to be unique.
Another example (based on my own experience):
When I was about 5 or 6, I began reading. My parents, primarily my mother, told me that the bible was the "word of God." I do not recall her using those exact words, but the implication was clear that the bible was not just another book.
Thanks for your answers.
