Where Did God Come From?

Who made God? Where did God come from? These are important questions to know the answer to, because the answer is fundamental to absolute monotheism, and leads the person who asks the question directly to the singular incorporeal Creator of all existence.

I agree with you regarding the fact that God is the creator of time and space and therefore the question "where did God come from?" is totally illogical. However, God is a triunity -- Father, Holy Spirit, and Son (Jesus Christ). There are enough references to these individual parts of God in the Bible. Jesus Christ said, "before Abraham was I am." Of course, as a Jew you have to reject the New Testament and Jesus Christ the Messiah who took my place on the cross to pay my sin debt.

Only.... I came to this conclusion as an evangelical Christian without any influence from Jews. I converted.

The thing that gave rise to the universe is simply a thing that we dont know anything about. It is not your god, its just a thing. This argument in the video is good but it jumps to the conclusions that the thing outside of space and time has to be a god. It really doesnt and there is no evidence to suggest that it is.

[omedyashar]

Do you disagree that the 'thing' which gave rise to the universe is some sort of authoritative force?

Authoritative in that it determined the functions and occurrences in the universe, and 'force' because without that 'thing' nothing that exists would exist.

if no religion had existed there would be chaos and all rules are loosely derived from religious rules...religion does not cause division..people cause division...

nice video bro!!! come check out the ELLIOTT ARGUMENT...its killing atheism!!!

[ultradevon04]

@omedyashar No i do not agree that it is an Authoritative force. I don't know what kind of force or properties such a thing could have. Our minds can't comprehend something that exist under different laws such as timelessness. I also don't think the universe had to be created in the first place. The act of creating is a temporal act which means a god would have to exist in time to create our universe.

It is a perfectly legitimate question. We still cannot explain how something came out of "nothingness" You are just avoiding the question, by using time and space as an excuse.

This singularity has to have some explanation. Whether we can comprehend it is a completly different question. But to say no answer can exist is total nonsense.  Please tell me how something can come out of nothingness?

An act of creation is a choice and a choice is a plurality.

@bbb505

and religion is led by people..

there is only Allah.

It is illogical to think that anything exists outside of time and space. God has a father and his father has a father, and so on in infinite regression.

@Wrahns Search,  Carl Sagan on "God" and "gods".

[Wrahns]

That makes no sense at all. If you can assert that "God" just existed without being "Created" and is outside "time" as we know it, then you can also apply the same logic, that the Universe just existed and is timeless, just like "God". If "God" can just exist, then the Universe can, it doesn't need "God".

Unless "God" was created by, by another "God or Gods"... and then we just get infinite regression. Carl Sagan put it better than how i just did. But you get the point.
