DEMYSTIFYING THE MYSTERIOUS
I do believe that God sent his messengers to mankind to guide us all to the straight path and reveal the truth about existence, God and the hereafter. But mankind has rewritten the truth to suit his own desires. The majority of Religious texts we have hold of today are man-made reproductions and purposeful corruptions of divine revelation.
On the subject of God having a Creator, if it were true and God had a Creator then the Creator of God would be the real God. But we cannot think in this manner, if we assume God had a Creator then we would just as likely be obliged to assume that the Creator of God also had a creator and so on.
We would find ourselves in an endless loop that is fundamentally flawed, but it is one of the basic attributes of God that answers this very question.
God is Divine, He is the Creator.
We have thrown around the word 'divine' so often that we seem to forget its true meaning.
When we say something is 'DIVINE' we are saying that it has no end, nor did it have a beginning but has always existed. This is the essence of God.
If God had a creator then God would not be divine.
The Creator is Divine, what he creates is perishable; he controls its used-by-date but could never create something else divine. Because something that is divine cannot be created FOR IT HAS NO BEGINNING.
It is also basic logic that The Creator must be completely different and much more powerful than the creation.
For example we humans are born into the world and we die, but our God is divine, He will never die and had no beginning.
It would not make sense for humans to have the same characteristics and power as the Creator, nor for the Creator to have lesser power than the creation. This is simple logic.
We humans must pro-create to bring more humans into the world. But for God to create something all He must do is think it into being or will it into existence. Just like we do not have the power to will things into existence, God does not need to pro-create to bring life into this world.
So in summation, nothing created God because He had no beginning. This is the most logical answer and it also nullifies God's need to pro-create or interfere in our world physically when He has absolute power to will things into existence.
On the other hand if God had been created then he is no greater than us. And if He had been created then he will surely have an end. He would not be a very powerful God at all.
