What happened before the beginning?

Question

"In the beginning..."

What was before that? If nothing, then how did God come about?

Answer 1

Maybe this is something we will learn in the END.

Answer 2

you have a good point, did god sit around really bored on his own and wonder what he should do with his time....

i don't think that in the beginning was really meant to be the Absolute Beginning, just the start of a story, which the bible is.

Answer 3

The end of something else of course.

Answer 4

Correct it really wasn't the beginning.

So in the beginning to Adam is an uncertain date.

Answer 5

We know that darkness filled the earth before the beginning. There were also angels, but eventually Satan and some angels rebeled against God and became fallen angels. We don't need a written prequel to the Bible because as far as we know the Bible doesn't need another book to prove its validity. The Bible alone in its original languages is absolutely true and trustworthy because it is the revealed Word of God. If God wanted us to have another book, the apocryphia would be accepted as scripture by everyone or the LDS books would be published along with every King James Version of the Holy Bible in the whole World? However, all we need is the Holy Bible and what God has to say in the Holy Bible alone. God is Alpha and Omega.  

Answer 6

there wasn't ever a beginning.

Answer 7

God had already created the Angels. They are all present when the universe began. Job 38:7

Answer 8

there was a void caused by the war with Satan!!!!!!!

Answer 9

From the perspective of this universe (the mortal realm), there was nothing before the beginning.  Not even time.  The Big Bang (the booming voice of God that exclaimed "Let there be light") was the beginning.  The Big Bang is believed by many scientists to have come after the Big Crunch of a previous incarnation of the universe, but it all still needed a point of origin.  A prime mover - God.

Answer 10

There live one that has no beginning his name is Allah, He is alone and has no equal. He has no father and no son, no mother no brother or sister.He gives the beginning by his will.

Answer 11

I believe Peter Jackson is on that.

Answer 12

It was the beginning of the world as we know it.

Long before God created the earth, he created the angels in heaven. It says in the book of Job that the angels rejoiced when they saw the marvelous things God was creating (i.e the earth and all in it)
