The difference here is that our human perception of this is that we have "forgotten" all of this- all of what we know- and we are here to "remember" it. Therefore, we don't think in terms of an omniscient being, so it is hard for us to imagine that "God" would choose to do that.
I am not out to prove anything here- only trying to broaden the minds of others and consider that:
God is ALL. God is All that Is and All that Is Not. God is the Essence of EVERY SINGLE grain of Life Itself and that God is Infinite. Humans have a hard time comprehending the magnitude of "God's" Being. That we can't understand things like His Free Will and His Choice to experience Himself.
Let's Look at it this way:
Billions of years ago- There's God- just the Essence of Him with no Earth, no Humans, no Living things, no anything.....He knows everything of Himself- that is His essence that is just BEing, yet He's getting "bored" just BEing. He wants to create. He wants to Experience Himself in magnitudes and infinite planes and levels and forms and dimensions of his Being. God said "Let there be Life" and BANG (as we know it the Big Bang Theory) where everything is created with one Big Bang. Life is created. His "offspring" was born.
You ask why? I ask WHY NOT? It's GOD!! God can do anything! If God wants to experience Himself, then He will! Why does it have to be questioned? We are still also thinking in terms of us being seperate from God- that God is superior and that God is an outward source from Us- out there....somewhere.....Everything He created is of Him.
We are the essence of God, therefore, there is no need to consider God seperate from us. Also, Viewing (experiencing) Himself in infinite forms and ways creates such an Infinite Universe so magnificent, it is hard for us to fathom the magnitude-that is why we question it.
There is a difference is knowing all and knowing the experience of all. That is where some people get confused. Omniscience is knowing all, but that is seperate from experience of knowing all. God at one time KNEW He was God- that He was Infinite and Omnipotent. So- He chose to experience BEing Infinite and Omnipotent.
