First we must understand that before God was God (a god is an object of worship and since there was nothing to worship Him)He was then Elohim or the self existing one. The only Eternal one. No beginning and no end. everything else was created by Him. And in Him were thoughts, and God never has a new thought for if He did, He would be finite, yet learning, but He is infinite/Omniscient and therefore He could be omnipresent. And in Him were attributes of God, redeemer, saviour, healer, provider, father, son, and others that He wanted to express and He did so through dispensations. So Elohim is self existing, God is Elohim being worshipped.

God was created in the human mind, and not by a single mind but of generations of imaginative minds. Maybe as far as a million years ago, men created the idea of super beings and with it created animistic religions, and as the human race advanced the concept of these super beings slowly evolved until it reached the present phase, a single god, which first appeared in Egypt with the Sun god and later in Judea with Yahweh, and the concept of god evolved a little since than, but it seems that the human species is nearing the final phase of atheism, or zero god.

a sturdy question. isn't it thrilling that the be conscious sturdy and GOD are so comparable? isn't it additionally thrilling that the be conscious devil and EVIL are so comparable? isn't it a threat that those are 2 concepts(sturdy & evil) early guy struggled to % out and describe. isn't it a threat early guy used those 2 "personifying concepts" and rendered those names (GOD & devil) to % out those 2 diametrically destructive concepts? and is no longer it a threat...this tale replaced into then expounded upon and greater training have been created around them, making use of the two concepts as a foundation for information? Critics of the Bible (which i think of is a sturdy and worth historic past, even in all probability the understand God-yet I won't kill or hate every person to honor it!), suspect the early (scrolls) pages of the Bible replaced into written via adult men as a manner of attaining out and explaining the unexplainable between themselves? Critics make a valid factor: In Genisis...interior the commencing up ... God created the full earth... there is made basically a quick and passing connection with making the SKY (because of the fact the SKY replaced into no longer a sparkling theory to them) the persons did no longer understand what lay previous the sky and so as that they could not often describe SKY accurately interior the Bible. If this is the understand God - relatively HE might have extensive-unfold with reference to the universe previous the sky.

The only real clue we have is that the Bible says that He is 'eternally existent'. That is a modern English translation of ancient Hebrew. You can do a word study if think a broader definition is necessary. Many will claim that just because it is recorded in the Bible does not make it true- but I say-it was put into print many years before anyone alive today was born. So, it stands until someone can prove it in error. Disagreement is not proof of error.

1. "As to thy question concerning the origin of creation. Know assuredly that God's creation hath existed from eternity, and will continue to exist forever. Its beginning hath had no beginning, and its end knoweth no end. His name, the Creator, presupposeth a creation, even as His title, the Lord of Men, must involve the existence of a servant. ... Whatsoever in the contingent world can either be expressed or apprehended, can never transgress the limits which, by its inherent nature, have been imposed upon it. God, alone, transcendeth such limitations. He, verily, is from everlasting. No peer or partner has been, or can ever be, joined with Him. No name can be compared with His Name. No pen can portray His nature, neither can any tongue depict His glory. He will, for ever, remain immeasurably exalted above any one except Himself."
2. "The process of His creation hath had no beginning, and can have no end."

Whether there was a Primordial ooze that God came from, who knows? What we understand as God, is the "I AM!" The
first realization, or thought. AWARENESS. Being aware
one exists! And God is the DRIVING FORCE behind what came
after.

That is an awesome question.
Mormons believe God had parents, but you know that the bible saying he is eternal and a spirit, which is contradctory to Mormon beliefs. Thus, god does not have an origin.

God was created by man's overzealous need to have answers. People always have to have answers and when they don't have them they invent them. Gods are created out of the need to have an answer to those who don't have them but need them to further their own interests. Gods are a reflection of man's arrogance.

Our limited brain sees a beginning and an end to everything. God has always existed and will always exist.
