God came along about the same time evolution produced the first man.
that man invented the wheel, learned how to make fire, and shortly after that, he noticed the differences in seasons, and sense he was just a fire making, wheel inventing type of guy, he didn't know what was causing it, so maybe some invisible unseeing force was making it all happen.
and the first idea of God was invented.

This kind of reasoning is called circular reasoning. lol You're asking a question even angels cannot answer. Logic does allow us to recognize 2 basic truths: one, that creatures and creation reveal a Creator; two, that all the universe can be categorized into physical, mental, and/or spiritual parts.
Angels and demons are intellectual creatures without a body; plants and animals do not have an intellect but a body and mortal soul. IT IS ONLY LIVING, HUMAN, BEINGS, that have a MIND, BODY, and SOUL. Only human beings have all three. Now, living, human, being is the existence of man. Those words describe the essence of man's mind, body, and soul. The Body is living, the Mind makes us human and distinguishing us from animals, and our Soul makes us the being that we become (good or evil).
Now, even Muslims will agree Allah is omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing), and omnipresent (ever present). These words describe the existence of God. So, what is the essence of God? I will hold off answering this question till the end.
Now, if you think about the existence of a person they have a triple existence: physical (body), mental (mind), and spiritual (eternal soul). In fact, whenever we create something it has all three of these parts. When we cook we have a recipe (in our mind), we gather all the raw ingredients, and we cook (don't burn it, ha ha) what it is we are making. Cooking has the physical, mental, and spiritual parts. Same with engineering or technology it has three parts: the blueprints (to convey an idea), the raw materials (physical), and the workmanship (spiritual). If something goes wrong investigators will look for a design flaw, material flaw, or faulty workmanship. THIS DEMONSTRATES CREATION HAS THREE PARTS LIKE THE CREATOR.

God told you:
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Revelation 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
Romans 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Romans 11:34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
Kings I 8:27 But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Psalms 139:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
Psalms 139:8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
Psalms 139:9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Psalms 139:10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
Psalms 139:11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
Psalms 139:12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

Where did God come from?
We can only partially comprehend the notion of God's existence. To do so, we must use human concepts to speak of God: "without beginning or end"; "eternal"; "infinite", etc. The Bible says that He has always existed: " . . . even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God" (Psalm 90:2). And, "Your throne is established from of old; Thou art from everlasting" (Psalm 93:2). Quite simply, God has no beginning and no end. So, where did God come from? He didn't. He always was.
To us, the notion of time is linear. One second follows the next, one minute is after another. We get older, not younger and we cannot repeat the minutes that have passed us by. We have all seen the time lines on charts: early time is on the left and later time is on the right. We see nations, people's lives, and plans mapped out on straight lines from left to right. We see a beginning and an end. But God is "beyond the chart." He has no beginning or end. He simply has always been.
Also, physics has shown that time is a property that is the result of the existence of matter. Time exists when matter exists. Time has even been called the fourth dimension. But God is not matter. In fact, God created matter. He created the universe. So, time began when God created the universe. Before that, God was simply existing and time had no meaning (except conceptually), no relation to Him. Therefore, to ask where God came from is to ask a question that cannot really be applied to God in the first place. Because time has no meaning with God in relation to who He is, eternity is also not something that can be absolutely related to God. God is even beyond eternity.
Eternity is a term that we finite creatures use to express the concept of something that has no end -- and/or no beginning. Since God has no beginning or end, He has no beginning. This is because He is outside of time.

From our vantage point in time everything seems as though it needs to have a beginning and an end.
This is just an illusion.
You are spirit, eternity is you reality.
Time is just for learning.
There is a book called the course in miracles that explains all of this in great detail.

I appreciate the question--- I had it too when I was a little girl. As I matured and learned more, I realized how very little I really DO know... So how can our finite minds possibly understand infinity? We cannot even comprehend the mysteries of our planet--- not even our own bodies and how they work. The brain itself is a mystery. So why do we think we can understand God?
Better one just goes into their heart and realize God IS and accept our limitations. When we are capable of understanding, the answers will be there.

How maximum of answerers may well be so oblivious to the truthfully meaning of words is astonishing. First, a picture, likeness, reflection (no count how ideal) remains in uncomplicated terms a picture - - that's not the actual ingredient. that's not even equivalent to the actual ingredient. Jesus is obviously defined as a separate guy or woman from God at Col a million:15. 2d, prototokos ("first-born"), actually skill "born first" - see youthful's Analytical Concordance - or stable's Exhaustive Concordance. the hot testomony interior the King James version and maximum different trinitarian translations use this meaning in the time of. using the observe prototokos interior the Bible continually skill one that has come into existence first in time - in the previous all something of his "brothers" - the commencing up (arkhe) of his father's creative (or procreative) works. - see pp. seventy seven-88 in Dr. Jason BeDuhn's reality in Translation, college Press of united statesa., 2003. yet some trinitarians nevertheless insist that the Biblical use of the Greek prototokos can, at times, recommend "pre-eminent" because of the fact they dare not admit the obtrusive, actual, literal meaning of Col. a million:15. --------------------------------------... a million John 4:9 additionally words God as a separate guy or woman from Jesus (as a brilliant variety of scriptures do). additionally, while thinking approximately ANY father and his son, that's not often referred to as them being co-equivalent and the comparable guy or woman. So if God and Jesus the two continually existed and are co-equivalent, then it would make no experience for the Bible to confusingly talk of God and Jesus in terms of a dating between a father and his son. needless to say, the Bible shows that Jesus isn't God, yet somewhat is (not in uncomplicated terms the Son of the father, yet) "the Son OF God (a separate guy or woman)".

Lmao, that Harry Potter comment was hilarious. Thats an excellent question. I've wondered about that a lot. Its really hard to imagine something like that, when you live in a world where everything has a beginning and end. Lol, I really wish I knew that one.

God became god when he was first invented by human beings. He came from our imagination. I don't really remember but the most ancient Gods as I recall were not creators of the universe as much as they were things that resembled natural things, like the sun, moon,...etc. Monotheism came later on, but I am not precisely sure which was the first religion.

if you created a world of people with a plan in mind, you would be in control of the end. You would work out the plan so that the end result is what you had decided at the beginning.
