How did god come to exist then...?

If there is a God, how did he come to exist???

I've heard of the big bang theory... but I havent heard of any theories of how God came to exist?

Anyone know?

God came to exist because of very rich imaginations and fear of the unknown…

Lmejia7 *** Meaning he can be every where at once.***

You THINK or you KNOW???

Seems like he is failing in all the promises he made, because
On the one side of earth there are billionaires and the other side
people dying of hunger. In one city, people praying in churches
And at the same time, around the corner a little girl raped.

So tell me where is he exactly???

Apparently he just always 'was'.

But something can't exist from nothing... can't they...?

No one knows

dont really know. lol. maybe when the big bang happened he just sort of appeared:S

Not in my opinion...but creationists will argue the same of the big bang theory.

Touché lol

The name Allah (God) in Islam is the personal name of God. The most concise definition of God in Islam is given in four verses in the Holy Quran:
{{Say, He is Allah, [Who is] One, Allah, the Eternal Refuge, He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent.}} (Holy Quran 112: 1-4)
This four-line definition of Almighty God serves as the touchstone of the study of God. Any candidate to divinity must be subjected to this ‘acid test' and since the attributes of The Creator given in this chapter are unique, false gods and pretenders to divinity can be easily dismissed using these verses.
1) The first criterion is «Say, He is Allah, one and only».
Can there be more than one god? This verse tells us that The Creator is the only one who has total and absolute power, unique in His names and attributes.
2) The second criterion is, «'Allah is absolute and eternal’».
The word that is translated as “The Eternal, Absolute” from Arabic is something that can be attributed only to The Creator as all the other existent beings temporal or conditional? It also means that Allah is not dependant on any person or thing, but all persons and things are dependant on Him.
3) The third criterion is «‘He begets not, nor is He begotten’».
This means God was not born, nor does He give birth and share his divinity with others. Nor does He have a family or relationship with another being.
4) The fourth test - which is the most stringent - is, «There is none like unto Him».
The moment you can imagine or compare ‘God’ to anything, then he (the candidate to divinity) is not God. It is not possible to conjure up a mental picture of the One True God because of the simple fact, as creation, we only know creation.

Nice copy and paste =/

who else created this world, us, animals??? hmm how bout that??

I'm not asking who created this world, us or animals... I'm asking how God was created...

4) The fourth test - which is the most stringent - is, «There is none like unto Him».

Translation: YOU... DON'T... KNOW...

God is eternally existant. He has know beginnig and he has no end. He is all knowing all being omniscient. Meaning he can be every where at once. We can't understand God because we have a limited mind. But God is infinite. Trying to know all God knows is like trying to fit the ocean into a tea cup.

I asked this same question to a pastor in a youth group I went to with a friend when I was a kid. His reply was, 'Read the first four words of the bible...'In the beginning God...' That's the only explanation anyone has. God just always has been. No one created him/her/it. According to most religions, him/her/it IS the creator. I have since given up on religion in general because there is no clear answers to any questions. You're told to just accept things because some book says so, and I can't do that. If you want to believe Zarnon from planet Garnash created God, then you can. There is no proof that this belief is any more or less credible than God just 'always has been'.

I know!

He is not failing at anything. We as a human race are. That is why he set his commandments in place. So let's look at your comments. Billionares decided to choose to make money there God. There's the first commandment broken. The hunger on the other side of the earth refuse to believe in the true God who will provide as promised. Instead the keep choosing to believe in their current God and that seems to be working. The person who raped the little girl broke commandment 8, 9 and 10. If you want to accept His challenge in John 14:15-21 you will see the proof. He will manifest Himself unto you. And hey if you don't believe this stuff then you have nothing to worry about right? And if I'm wrong then I'll die and just rot right? But if your wrong then what?

lmejia7:

I won't disagree with the fact that we as a human race are failing. Humans are nothing more than parasites that consume and exploit everything around them with little or no regard to the actual consequences. But, I refuse to believe the only way 'goodness' can find itself in our hearts is through the threat of eternal damnation. What's wrong with being a good person just because you think it's right, not because 'God' gave his commandments to 'Moses' and we have to follow them or else? And believing in something just in case or just to be safe, is the highest form of cowardice.

So when my children break my rules I should leave them be and continue to do so? I mean where do I draw the line? How did you come to THINK that it was right to be a good person? Through the way you were raised or you just grew from a child to now and you just knew to be good?

I decided to check into this bible thing and see what these whacko christians are all about. I didn't get started because if not hell is the alternative. God knows who's serious or not. There will be plenty of people who say they are christian who will be in hell as well as good people . Because God is not looking for a religious people or good people. He is looking for a people whom are faithful and willing to have a relationship with him personally not traditionally and religiously.

You FEEL you are at peace because ignorance is bliss.

Consider that god existed with an origin, then why would our own universe require a creator?

Wouldn't it make sense to exclude god all together.

So are you saying because you don't understand how God came about we should exclude him altogether?
