Rev 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
He always has existed!
OK....Adonis, Osiris, Dionysus also called themselves the bread of life...Osiris and others believed in eating him(bread) to be as apart of him..an to participate in his resurrection..Attis was sacrificed at the spring equinox and rose again on the third day, when he became god and ascended to heaven...Like Orpheus and Heracles he harrowed in hell. Like Mithra and other solar gods his birthday is nine months later at the winter solstice because the day of his death was also the day of his cyclic re-conception..
Orsiris and Tammus were called Good Shepherd, Sarapis was Lord of Death and King of Glory..Mithra and Heracles and Light of the World, Sun of Righteousness, Dionysus was King of Kings, God of Gods, Helios the Enlightened One and the Logos...Vishnu and Mithra were Son of Man and Messiah...Adonis was the Lord and the Bridegroom...MotAleyin was the Lamb of God...and Savior...
WILL THE REAL GOD PLEASE STAND UP...
Picture of Zeus.
This question is one of the most difficult question to answer, but may actually have one of the simplest answers that we probably already know, but we think, "Naw, that can't be it." Or maybe it is somewhere hidden deep in our minds and we have no way of figuring out what it is and when someone actually figures it out, they will probably go insane from all the controversial information flooding into their mind due to that discovery (a theory based on "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"😉.
No problem with god always existing, time is limited its not trancendental, time has to have a begin at the "time" of the Big Bang, there was no "before" the Big bang, time was not existent "before" the big bang... there is no sense in saying "before the Big bang" its from general relativity.. uncle Einstein always said that 🙂
I think that God itself is beyond time, and space, he exist in all points of time, and space, and even outside them... so in every moment at which time was existent, god existed... so he always existed.

Black holes are outside of time but they had a before. I believe that the last big bang was just that, the last of an endless number of big bangs and big crunches. Yes, we can't look beyond it, but that's only because we are in the universe.
Time. So complex, yet so simple. We cannot explain it, yet we have made units of time to measure how long we can do different activities. Why does time exist? Why does anything exist? Why are there so many different religions if only one god exists? Which god is the one that truly exists? If that god is the only true god, why did we come up with the others?
These are a small percentage of the questions that float through my head all the time. There are no easy answers to any and to most there are none. All of those questions are interrelated and if we can answer just one of them correctly, we may be able to figure out the rest. If you have started to think as I do and question every last detail of our universe and our existence, I only have one thing to say. Welcome to my world...

The only true God is the God of the Cylons.

That's a great way of putting it! 😄 That's basically summed up how I feel 😄

I suppose, if you think about it, could time be a human construct? Was there any concept of time before humans came along and started measuring it...?

Thank you! Now take it one step further, the universe is God. In other words, the universe is alive. 😄
The christian-judeo/muslim concept of God does not exist. He/She/It is a concept created by man to explain things that could not be explained before the advent of scientific research. And even with scientific research, we have yet to breach the birth canal of knowledge to fully understand what thoughts, ideas, or knowledge we do have.
And our belief in God is a thought ingrained into our minds from those that wish to control the masses throughout the ages. So the beginning of God is that spark of imagination from some person who first thought it.
