FAQ # 125
QUESTION 125
: Who Created God?
The bible tells us, “But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing
that they do gender strifes” (2 Tim 2:23). The word unlearned is used
with foolish, meaning the question is not only not a wise one, but has
no precept to it; no knowledge given from God, from creation until now,
about it, plus human comprehension is not able to fathom it. It then becomes
vain to dot about such questions as even a few verses above said, “But
shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
And their word will eat as doth a canker” (2 Tim 2:16-17). “Increase unto
more ungodliness,” with your questions, might sound something like this
with the help of satan, “who is this God anyway? Yeah, who created him?
Why should we ought to listen to him? I should do my own thing.” Though
this might seems far fetch now and you might exclaim, “I wasn’t thinking
that, I would never say that.” But with a question like yours, that’s
how it starts very subtly. Be careful.
God said this about himself and answers your question in the last
verse:
“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is
no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they
may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is
none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light,
and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all
these things. Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour
down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation,
and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive
with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth
it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands? Woe unto him that
saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast
thou brought forth? Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his
Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning
the work of my hands command ye me” (Isa 45:5-11).
Notice the last verse, after
emphasizing who he is, he then admonishes us to ask things about his sons
(fallen and redeemed), salvation and all that he has made: that is, ask
anything except something as ‘unlearnt’ as “who made God.”
