where did god really came from?

Answer 1

GOD came from people's need to make sense of the world.

Answer 2

God is not a physical being, therefor He doesn't have to come from somewhere like you or me. Where does love come from, or happiness? They just are, and they are very much a part of our lives. Faith is the evidence of things unseen. A couple hundred years ago, people didn't believe in radio wave, or know about them even, because they couldn't see them, but they still existed. We have a hard time believing in things we can't see, or understand, but how do you explain miracles. There are so many times in people's lives that something should have happened, but didn't and it can't be explained, or that something shouldn't have happened, but did. My husband should have gotten blown up by a bomb in Iraq, but for some reason it didn't go off. It can't be explained, it just is. So is God.

Answer 3

God, by definition, means there is no greater power. If God "came from" something, as you say, then that source of God would have to be God. Therefore, it's impossible for God to have come from anything.

For us humans, who live in a temporal state (meaning that we live in a linear, time-governed existence), it is nearly impossible to comprehend the idea of eternal existence.

But if we assume that God is omnipresent (meaning he can be everywhere at once), then we must also assume that God lives outside of time. In other words, don't think of God as having existed a bazillion times a bazillion years ago. Think of God as existing on a different plane, where time doesn't come into play. God lives in the eternal, so always being is wholly possible.

Answer 4

"“Today many people in the West would be dismayed if a leading theologian suggested that God was in some profound sense a product of the imagination. Yet it should be obvious that the imagination is the chief religious faculty. Human beings are the only animals who have the capacity to envisage something that is not present or something that does not yet exist but which is merely possible"

Answer 5

I assume your speaking of the Judeo-Christian God named Jehovah or Yahweh (they are interchangable/meaning the exact same thing). Since Hebrew had no vowels you could put in ae or ea and JHVH or YHWH (all are equally correct) in both spelling and sound since their is no ONE way to prononunce it.

Basically he started out as a god of a few family members before the flood, he was known then as El (often confused with El and Asherah). So basically he was simply called God, this lasted for 20 generations from Adam to Abraham. During Abraham's time he was simply called "the God of Abraham", it was only when Moses came along that he called himself "I am, that I am" or YHWH or JHVH (meaning "I AM BECAUSE I CAUSED MYSELF TO BECOME TO BE" or I wanted to be so I made myself. It was for HIM a simple act of willpower to create himself.

Now, how can someone have willpower when they don't exist yet?

Answer 6

THAT god came from the need of men to justify the unexplainable.

Answer 7

If god is omnipresent, is he also benevolent, or is that too much to ask from our small frame of mind? What proof is that that god was always in existence? Because the bible says so is not proof.

Answer 8

from the human mind... no where eles , man created god not the other way around(and any other god for that matter)

Answer 9

From Man's need to explain the unexplainable.

Answer 10

People's imagination
