Coming from that culture (and now out of it), I can say that there is this sense with them that, if you were open to their message, that God had already "prepared your heart" for it, which of course takes some of the pressure off them to make it comprehensible.

This is why so much Christian television and preaching falls flat on me. Most of them don't think people know a lot about religion so they act like this is the first time we've ever heard of God and the Bible in every single sermon. Judaism and Islam assume you do know SOMETHING.

Many Evangelicals seriously believe that God makes himself known to everyone and atheists and agnostics who claim never to have experienced him are consciously lying out of hubris. This explains a lot.
