Nothing. God has always been there. I can understand forever after, but having no beginning is hard to imagine. But creation is part of the reason for my faith. What I always say to myself is there are two theories for creation. One is that there is a god, and the other is the Big Bang Theory. Scientists believe that matter cannot be created or destroyed, so where did all that matter come from? I imagine they would say that it's always been there. But when you take God, they ask what God's beginning is, but they stop there and say it sounds crazy because He doesn't have a beginning. Even though their theory doesn't either. They stop there because they think it's crazy, but I also think it's crazy to say life came from nothing.
So there has to be a god right? There is no doubt that Jesus was a real person, but was he God? Before, there had been lots of people claiming to be God, but those stories didn't last long. But 2,000 years ago, a poor man, who worked with wood, claimed to be God, and his story is one of the most well known today! Also, the twelve disciples. Every one of them preached the Gospel after Jesus died. And every single one [except John] died because of their faith. [John was left on a deserted island] Each had many chances to stop but they didn't. Why would they choose to die for something they knew was false? They wouldn't, because He was what He said He was, the Son of God.
I am a Christian, I believe in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I believe that He came to give all a chance to go to Heaven and not to Hell. All that I ask from the reader is not to reject this, but reply to me and tell me what you think is false. I never understood why Christians were hated and no one else.
Also, when God says to love him with your whole heart, He means it. Over 80% of people who say they're Christians, will be surprised on judgement day when they are sent away. Everyone needs to make sure that they are Christians.
The last thing I'll say is this, If God Isn't real, I'm no better off than you. But if God is real, then you'll have a lot of trouble in Hell.
