How Would You Defend the Concept of a Benevolent and Omnipotent God?

Is there a Biblical basis for the omniscient, omnipresent, omnibenevolent triad, or is it just something Christians made up?

The Bible never uses those particular words (nor “omnipotent”). You may be interested in these old threads:

The history of Christian God's omni hat-trick

I’m remembering back to my days spent at a lutheran college and thought about the ideas that the Christian God was omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent. I am only vaguely remembering that this was a much later concept than the bible but just really stuck as a construct that God has all three of these abilities. What is the history of this?

Omni-benevolent, Omnipotent, and Omniscient

Hallo, First off, I guess I must be described as a Christian, at least that would be my cultural background. As a matter of fact though – I have never practised religion, it plays no part in my life, nor my family. I also have never read the Bible. Most of my knowledge comes from lurking places like this one, reading what is written and applying common sense to the arguments as they are given. I highly thank many of the people of this place for spending their time putting forward their points…
