"The Bible reveals the Creator of the universe as:
- eternal
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. (Psalm 90:2)
- all-powerful
Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O LORD, and you are exalted as head above all. Both riches and honour come from you, and you rule over all. In your hand are power and might, and in your hand it is to make great and to give strength to all. (1 Chronicles 29:11–12)
- spirit (non-material)
God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth. (John 4:24)
Note that the Bible says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1).
Here God created time itself. Only One who is outside of time, that is, timeless, or eternal, could do this.
--Now to ask where someone who is eternal, someone who had no
beginning, came from (‘Who created God?’) is like asking, ‘To whom is
the bachelor married?’ It is an irrational question.
--The Bible matches reality, which is not surprising when we consider that it claims to be from the Creator Himself.
We marvel at the scientists who are discovering the nano-technology in
living things—and it is an astonishing enterprise.
Q: But what of the One
who invented these things?
Q: How much more intelligent is He?
This reminds
me of another characteristic of the God whom the Bible reveals: He is omniscient (all knowing). See Psalm 139:2–6; Isaiah 40:13–14." CMI
