Question

I know that in the bible it says God is the begining and the end, he has always existed...........Why then is it not possible that we always existed? When I ask my religious friends this they always ask me "well who created us?", well who created God?He had to of come from somewhere or something.I just want to hear everyones opinions on this.

Answer 1

All gods came from within the imaginations of men.

Answer 2

I know it's hard for you to understand, God's always being , without a beginning, or an end, for we have a beginning and usually an end, but consider his creations one is the universe, can you understand the beginning of that, or the end, or even the middle, where is that?Someone who would be able to create something like that, would have to have the potential to have always been, and always be, he created time and the universe, chance cannot do that, Only God can!

Answer 3

God made heaven and earth; by His Spirit the havens were garnished; He laid the foundations of the earth; by wisdom He founded the earth; by understanding He established the heavens; His hands stretched out the heavens, and all their host He commanded; heaven and earth, His hand made, and so all those things came to be; He made the sea and the dry land; He is the first and the last, the Alpha and Omega; He is the beginning of creation; by His will, heaven and earth were created (II Kings 19:15; Job 26:13; 38:4; Prov. 3:19; Isa. 42:5; 44:6; 45:12; 66:2; Jonah 1:9; Rev. 1:8; 3:14; 4:8).

Answer 4

Did we live before we came to earth? Yes. We were spirit children of our Heavenly Father [God the Father] before being born of earthly parents and receiving our bodies. There is a natural progression.
What is the beginning and the end the bible speaks of? is it the beginning and end of this earth? or time? we don't know exactly what is referred to here.
However, the idea of no beginning and no end is an entirely different matter. Difficult to put one's mind around initially, although we go through stages of comprehension of it [for example, teenagers often think that the statistics of reckless driving doesn't apply to them and nothing will ever happen to them... in their own mind and in their own way, they perceive themselves as invulnerable or immortal].

If you really want to get into the question of 'who created God', add an edit of 'why are we here?' -- the answer begins there

Answer 5

This statement of yours cannot be supported:

"He had to of (sic) come from somewhere or something."

Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Just like a circle, God has neither a beginning nor an end.

Answer 6

It is rather difficult to answer this question. I know that regardless of what religion/denomination you ask - they will give you several answers and some of them will overlap. The only way I can answer this is .... where does Love come from?
If we look at the scriptures it states that God is Love, and also in the scriptures it states that God is a Spirit. So you are also asking ... where does love come from?

Answer 7

God is not the same since the Beginning of Time.

Answer 8

At present, this question has no answer. At least religious people cannot answer this. May be, some day scientists can. Because by landing at Moon and approaching other planets, we are few lacks miles nearer to God then any religious person.

Answer 9

God is everlasting he is over the times law
he create every thing and he create the system and the times
and no beginning and no end for him
he create our brain and thoughts so that we can not reach him by our thoughts.
he is the God Almighty.

Answer 10

I think that its kinda like a never ending cycle, God was once a man, like us, and He lived His life righteously enough that He attained Godhood, and we, as His children, can obtain the same blessings. We are told to try to be like Him, the question I've always asked is what's the point if we can't ever be like Him. The only reason I think it's a cycle is cause that would explain where the first one's came from... which would be the last ones... :D yeah, i know, my mind really doesn't make sense...

Answer 11

Yes, you have always existed. But you are also progressing. Your intelligence has always existed. Before earth your spirit was born to God (the father of spirits). Then you are born to earthly parents and gain a physical body for your spirit. You die, get resurrected and go on to eternal life. Jesus said he did nothing but what he saw the Father do. So what did Jesus do? He was born, lived right, died and was resurrected. He is like his Father, who is God.

John 5
19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

So what about us......(from the old testament)
Psalms 82:6
6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

So what did Christ think about this....
John 10
31 Then the Jews took up astones again to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

The Jews accused Jesus of making himself a God. Christ did not deny it, but rather said that is what was written in their own law. So hopefully this answers your question about where God comes from.
