I've seen a lot of questions asking where the energy came from to perform the "big bang". I'm an atheist, I really don't know if the big bang happened or not I'm not sure what happened but I do know that the big bang makes tons more sense than a floating bearded man snapping his fingers.
So here's my question for you, Where did god come from?

religious people will tell you that god has always existed. that there was no beginning and is no end.
Try arguing with that highly intellectual stance!

In the beginning was God...God has always been and always will be. He dwells in Heaven and has made a hell for the Devil and this world was created as a test to see if people would love God wilfully or would they love evil and sinful pleasures more. God has given mankind the will of choice either to choose from believing or disbelieving, love or hate, to follow Jesus or Satan, from being a pauper or a king, to do either good or evil, and to make your destiny in heaven or hell You are given a free will and will one day stand before your Creator and give an account of your life on this earth, To those who have rejected Christ, the Lamb of the world, shall not have access to the coming kingdom of God on this earth and those who have met Jesus Christ shall rule and reign with Him. These are the facts, now you decide...

Your thinking in the physical limitations of time-space, seeing that you started with the "big bang", a possible event that took place in the physical domain.
God is eternal. He dwells in timelessness, that is, outside the physical restraints of space-time. In the Bible, this is paraphrased in the term "the First and the Last" or "eternity".
Isaiah 57:15
For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “ I dwell in the high and holy place,With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Do not look upon God as only limited to 4 dimensions. A tree is more than its trunk and branches, there are roots where you can not see that plunge beneath the surface of our reality. If we limit God to what we see or understand, we will miss the depth of who He is.
If God chose to snap His fingers to create all that we know or see, how is such an event so limiting to you? However, it did not happen that way. All of creation came from His command to be--the Greeks called it the Logos-- The Word.
Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.

He's without beginning and without end. Your flesh mind cannot grasp that. It's only when your open your spiritual mind that it makes sense.
It's the same with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Are they one, or are they three? Answer: both. To a nonbeliever, that sounds like gibberish. To me, however, it makes total sense.
The above is why we can never have a meeting of the minds, if you will. I can live with it ... can you?

God didn't come from anywhere, he just always was...& the big bang theory doesn't make any sense. A group of nerdy scientists just gathered around & said; Aha! All the particles & stuff just gathered 2gether & formed earth!
Yeah...big bang theory makes no sense.

God is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. He has no beginning and He has no end.
Read Romans 1:18-32 in the Holy Bible New Living translation. It talks about you.

Everything in the universe is made by god... Also time, space, matter. He is not bound by anything. Including time. God has always been. "he is the Alpha and omega.

God has always been that is what makes him God, your problem is that you see a picture of something and you forget that it is not a photo, God did not pose for them paintings its just what some person imagined he would look like. in fact God probably isn't confined to just one appearance, he can probably look like whatever he wants.

Unlike the universe, God is eternal. How did life come from non-life, which would mean that it would be defying the law of Biogenesis?

God didn't come from anywhere He was always right there even before He created time, space, and earth. No one created Him.
