Maybe, God is not magic IF we can understand HOW He does what He does. God was only 'magic' to those who did not understand how He accomplished what He accomplished.
Nothing in the bible says God as to be 'magic' we only ever thought of Him that way because we did not understand. Now that we understand more what makes us think God has to remain in the realm of the supernatural when He is the creator of the natural!
Deserves repeating. The only difference between the natural and the supernatural is knowledge of the mechanics.
...And just because we HAD a Magical view of God does not mean we must maintain it!
God is the creator of the natural universe, so why then would he create something that required Him to circumvent it (Supernaturally) every time He wanted to do something?
Think about it, if God is all knowing and all powerful, would he for see the need to have a system in place (The natural universe) that he could use/control in a natural way?
It's like custom building your own car. would you build a car where you could not reach the pedals, unless you used some sort of artifical extention to hit the gas and brake or would you build a car that put all of it's controls well with in reach?
