The Bible tells us that no one created God. Psalm 90:2 says that God is "from time indefinite to time indefinite."
Since "God is a Spirit" (John 4:24) he is not bound by the phsyical laws which he himself created.
The angels exist in the spirit realm and they themselves are spirits. But God created them before he created the earth and Man, they are not the spirits of dead people.
The word 'spirit' has several meanings in the Bible. A 'spirit being', such as God or an angel, is different from a persons soul. At Genesis 2:7, when God created Adam, it says: "God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul."
It was only after God gave Adam breath that he *became* a living soul, he was not given a soul. Job 33:4 says: "God’s own spirit made me, And the Almighty’s own breath proceeded to bring me to life." This shows that God being a spirit, is different from the spirit (breath) that God used to create Adam so that he became a living soul.
Incidentally, the Bible does not teach that the soul is immortal. At Ezekiel 18:4, 20 it says: "The soul that is sinning - it itself will die."
Scientists agree that the Universe had a beginning. Since it appears that it is expanding, it is reasonable to conclude that it is expanding from a central point. That then creates a dilema for scientists who deny the existence of a creator.
If the Universe had a beginning, what existed before it? Where did the compressed matter come from? And why did it suddenly explode? Is this the only explosion in the history of the Universe that led to structure and order? (People talk about the 'laws of physics', galaxies are grouped together in clusters and those clusters are grouped together into super-clusters. All this from a random explosion?)
In order for the Big Bang to occur, something must have existed forever. That might seem strange at first. But if someone says, the Big Bang was caused when a lump of compressed matter exploded, the logical question would be, Where did the matter come from? If, for exampe, the matter came from gases, Where did the gases come from? And so on...
It must end somewhere.
-------------
The Bible is not written to explain why certain things like solar eclipses and thunderstorms happen. Even if primitive man did reason that certain events happend as the result of a higher power, that does not disprove the existence of God.
God did not 'appear out of nowhere'. He did not appear at all since he has always been there.

They are several kinds of spirits. Not all spirits comes from previous alive persons.
* human spirits come from people.
* angels are spirits, but they were created that way by God, without a previous human life.
* demons are spirits, fallen angels, not previously evil people.
* God is a spirit, an unique one. He created all spirits. No one created Him.

God transcends time. Time only exists in this universe. Since God does not experience time there was no before and no need of a creator.

I know you're probably sick of hearing "God is God- no one created him. He was and is just there"
But the thing is, it's true. no one can understand or know where he came from (if i'm wrong, sorry). that's where faith comes in, and your relationship with God goes to works

Personally, I don't understand why people can believe that "God" just appeared out of no where. I mean seriously, one random day, a spirit appeared and declared him/herself god???

So according to your logic God was a human who died(exclude Jesus here ) and then set about creating the first humans?

Nobody knows where the Big Bang came from, and nobody knows where God came from. Either way, every body's beliefs could be completely made up.
