Who created the Creator? How will things look like without all of them? Total darkness? Even that was created!

Like so many different energies in the world, there also exist a 'living energy'. This energy circulates in us till we die. Research is still far behind, there must be many more energies that we presently don't  know. ..good energy ....bad energy..which might be associating with living energy , making us to good or bad deeds.

I am sure that God created the universe in only 6 "days". The question is, how long were these days? One day at that point in time could actually have spanned millions of our years. This would explain dinosaurs and evolution and a few other questions. I don't think Lucifer was banned to Hell until after Humans were made and I think he was a human who died and went to Heaven and then was bannished to Hell. He could of even walked with some of your ancestors. (Creepy, huh!)

Isaiah 45:7\nI form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.\n\nFrom your own Bible, Christians.\n\nI dare you to pull the "out of context" card on me.

'Darkness' or the 'absence of light' is a relative term - and it is almost impossible to have 100% total darkness in our Planet Earth's surface !\n...But, if such a 'total' darkness is artificially created, and if a person volunteers to remain awake for 14 hours within it - only then can this hypothesis be verified, or rejected !\nWanna try, pardner ?!\n:-))

Ha! finally a question i can actually answer and know 100%! In the beginning, God created the earth, along with the heavens. He said it, and it was done. Pretty sweet, eh? lol...he's pretty good, made it all, in the matter of 6 days...

Aha, a Question worthy of the Illuminati !

A University professor at a well known institution of higher learning challenged his students with this question.       "Did God create everything that exists?"\n\nA student bravely replied, "Yes he did!"\n\n"God created everything?" The professor asked.\n\n"Yes sir, he certainly did," the student replied.\n\nThe professor answered,  "If God created everything; then God created evil.    And, since evil exists, & according to the principle that our works define who we are, then we can assume God is evil."\n\nThe student became quiet & did not respond to the professor's hypothetical definition.   The professor, quite pleased with himself, boasted to the students that he had proven once more that the religious faith was a myth.\n\nAnother student raised his hand & said,  "May I ask you a question, professor?"\n\n"Of course," replied the professor.\n\nThe student stood up and asked, "Professor, does cold exist?"\n\n"What kind of question is this?  Of course it exists.  Have you never been cold?"\n\nThe other students snickered at the young man's question.   The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist.  According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat.\nEverybody or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, & heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy.   Absolute zero (-460F) is the total absence of heat; & all matter becomes inert &  incapable of reaction at that temperature.  Cold does not exist.  We have created this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat."\n\nThe student continued, "Professor, does darkness exist?"\n\nThe professor responded, "Of course it does."\n\nThe student replied , "Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either.   Darkness is in reality the absence of light.   Light we can study, but not darkness.   In fact, we can use Newton's prism to break white light into many colors & study the various wave lengths of each color.   You cannot measure darkness.   A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness & illuminate it.   How can you know how dark a certain space is? \nYou measure the amount of light present.   Isn't this correct? \nDarkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present."\n\nFinally the young man asked the professor,  "Sir, does evil exist?"\n\nNow uncertain, the professor responded,  "Of course, as I have already said.   We see it\neveryday.   It is in the daily examples of man's inhumanity to man.   It is in the multitude of crime & violence everywhere in the world.   These manifestations are nothing else but evil.\n\nTo this the student replied,  "Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself.  Evil is simply the absence of God.    It is just like darkness & cold,  a word that man has created to describe the absence of God.\nGod did not create evil.  Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart.    It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat, or the darkness\nthat comes when there is no light."\n\nThe professor sat down.

Creator made humans and gave them his greatest gift: free will. Some humans put that gift to waste by destroying each other and the environment. Its sad.

I'm not sure how I'm gonna answer this, but here goes.\nLet's see: God created Lucifer (now known as Satan) as His second in command. Lucifer then saw how much better than all the other angels he was and thought to himself, "If I'm so much better than them, why can't I be better than God himself?" No one knows where this thought came from, seeing how God only makes perfect creations. The only logical place that it could have came from is freedom of choice that God gave them when He created the Angels. This freedom also explains why 1/3 of the Angels chose to follow Lucifer in his rebellion against God. After Lucifer and his demons (fallen angels) were cast out of Heaven, God seperated His angels so far away from Lucifer's that the demons know that they can never get back. Lucifer is free to come and go as he pleases in God's throneroom (as evidenced in the first chapter of Job), but he can never return to what he once was. This fact has angered him so much over the millenia that he's esentially declared war on humanity, God's most prized creation. The first battle in this war was waged on the day of Adam and Eve's temptation and fall away from God when Satan successfully decieved them to eat of the tree that God explicitly said not to eat from. The victory was prophesied not even a day later when the Spirit of the Lord walked through the Garden looking for Adam and Eve to felowship with them as He normally did, only to find them hiding from them, dressed in fig leaves. God asked them why they were ashamed of themselves, and then they went through the whole "it's his/her fault" routine, blaming each other for what one did. When the truth finally did come out (not like God didn't already know), God pronounced consequences on humanity (a series of hardships which can be read in Genesis 3), and cursed the serpent (as this was the creature Satan used to decieve Adam and Eve). The curse on the serpent also held hope for the redemption of Mankind, as it fortold of the defeat of Satan through the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The war was over before it begun! \n\nSo, to answer your question: Yes, Satan invented the concept of sin. He then successfully marketed this concept to himself, his demons, and ultimately to humanity. He even tried to get Jesus to sin, but since Jesus is God in the flesh (and God is perfect), he couldn't do it. Jesus was the only man who ever lived here on earth that lead a perfect life, one completely without sinning.

I spent five years of my life trying to understand this andother parts of ideas like this.  And for all that searching, you come to realize that these is no absolute answers on a question like this.  However, you said you assume a God, one that created us.  From here on out is my thought process, no extra websites to look up, no extra references to any books.  \n\nWhy does one create,  and in God's case why did He create us?  Could it have been that it was a selfish act?  I don't believe it would be, since if it had been a selfish act why would we be given free will?  Free will gives us the right to do as we wish, if God had been looking for something solely for Him, He would have definately skipped the whole free will thing.  \n\nCould it have been that we were created for, and out of, love?  Our being so small, we couldn't hope to understand what God's condition was before the time of our creation, but we can assume that if He hadn't created anything yet that there was nothing there.  I don't know about you, but I would be darn lonely out there in a void of nothingness with not even a single thing to talk to.  In his wisdom, I am sure he wanted to have comapny, but company that would be itself and not something that would be a puppet.  He needed something that could experience things for itself, think for itself, love on its own terms and not on His.  I would be certain He could see that in creating something like this, there might have been the chance that it wouldn't choose to love Him.  The next obvious thought is make a lot of it, and I dare say He did, look at how many of us there are!  \n\nAnyway,  cutting a whole lot of details out,  God made us out of love so that we may love Him back.  Thats all He truely wants I believe, not that you go out and do these things this way and think that those guys over there are bad because they don't do it this way.  I think that He just wants our love, but He is a good enough person to give us the choice; to love Him or not.  If we have the choice of love or not,  then He couldn't be omniscient it would ruin the whole effect.  Even if he is omniscient, He could only see all our possible outcomes, not what we are going to choose, He'll have to wait with baited breath just like the rest of us.  \n\nI firmly believe that He is a lot more like a person you and I would be like than we give Him credit for.  He has feelings, He gets angry, sad, worried, feels love and pain as well.  Not in the same ways of course, He is a universial being and we're only little flesh and blood thingies right now.  But I say that He is waiting to see what all of us are going to decide about Him.  I say He's been one of the nicest people I've ever met, and I only met Him through a couple of books, a few other people, and just thinking about Him.  My mind bursts at the thought of a personal meeting one day.  \n\nAll in all, I think its up to you.  It sounds like you already have an answer.  I hope that maybe one day we can all know that God is a being of Love, and not debate the silly specifics about it. But I guess we'll see.  ^^\n\n(summary and disclaimers :P )\nGod is not omniscient.\nGod is a being of love.\nHe is waiting for us to decide if we like Him or not.\nI used He and Him just to keep it all simple and clean, I think that God is beyond gender or any qualifier that we have.  \nI also don't mean to attack any religion what-so-ever, because I think you are entitled to your beliefes, and I thank you for it because without it think how boreing all of us would be.  (gives me the chills thinking about a world where we're all the same.)\n\nSorry to ramble, and thanks for your time.  ^^

if it was created by a creator, what then created the creator?\n\nOur physics breaks down inside an Event Horizon so there's really no way of currently knowing as to how it formed.  All we know is we're here, and by random chance.  \n\nCreationism is not a plausible explanation nor is "intelligent design."

Seven of God's days. He dwells in eternity where it is timeless. Remember that the sun, moon and stars were not created until the fourth day. So what was the source of light on day one? What was the division of light and darkness? Remember the Tabernacle in the wilderness? This was not a new design, it was a model of heaven. God created the earth as modeled in heaven with a division of light and darkness. This may be areas in the eternal relm where God dwells and possible where Satan dwells. According to Revelation, this heaven will pass away and a new heaven and new earth will be created with NO night. So what happens to the dark eternity? It becomes what is called "outer darkness".\nBeing here on earth, it is hard to interpret the concept of eternity. Einstein got close when he proved that time is a physical property.\nThis was a great question. Thanks!

Thats the problem, we dont have to ask who created the creator because we are told that God just "is, was, and always will be".  \n\nThe arrogance of man to think that we are smart enough to understand everything is our greatest downfall.  Ever hear people say that when they think they know everything, they learn that they know very little?\n\nVirtually everything that we know today was once unreasonable to the abilities of our brain.  Just like no one knew about gravity until it was discovered and able to be measured.  People thought the Earth was flat, and when they were told it was round, it took many years before they realized the person was right.  Then they discovered later it was somewhat oval.  Just because the most intelligent scientist in the world cannot understand supernatural things, dont mean they dont exist.  Maybe someday someone will discover a way to "see" these things too, so that everyone will have the knowledge.  Just because it hasnt happened yet dont mean we are at the end of all learning, and it wont.\n\nThe fact that we are the only animals on the planet that aspire for greatness, desire things that we dont need, and have learned how to create things ourself is proof that God created us in His image.  We dont question why we have the ability to learn and evolve, we just take it for granted.\n\nMankind has in effect became gods, because they forgot and no longer appreciate what created them. They believe as long as they can invent and create new things that now they are gods. \n\nThis has been prophesied in Revelation. Part of being marked with the mark of the beast is man becoming their own god.

During the CREATION (Genesis 1)\n\nWhy? Here's how.\n\nGen 1:1 ...God created the heavens and the earth.\nGen 1:3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.\n\nGen 1:14 And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, \n\nAfter God created the heavens and the earth (Gen 1:1), Lucifer start to become proud, then God throw Lucifer to earth and 1/3 of angels who join to Lucifer.\n\nIT MEANS IT IS ONE-DAY EVENT?\n\nYES! but take note on Gen 1:3 there is no SUN, and in Gen 1:14 that the only God start creating sun, moon, stars who will mark seasons and days and years.\n\nThat means from Day 1 to 3. ONE DAY is not equal to 24-HOURS.\n\nPSALM 84:10 Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere;

The book of Job suggests that Satan was created by God. He was the greatest of the Angels, and his pride caused him to rebel against God (very similar to the Adam and Eve Story).\nEvil is the result of the brokeness of creation. When God created he looked and it was good. The consequences of human rebellion against God lead to suffering and death.\n\nSo you would be right to thing that God created all things but not that he created evil. The next question however is if God knew that evil would happen why did he still create?
