So, Who Made God?

Once at a conference, I had a young boy ask me, “If God created us, who created God?”

Here’s how I replied: “If someone made God, then you would need a bigger God. But now you have a problem—who made the bigger God? You’d need a bigger, bigger God who made the bigger God who made God.

“But, who made the bigger, bigger God? Well, you’d need a bigger, bigger, bigger God to make the bigger, bigger God to make the bigger God who made God.”

We could keep going back forever, and then have to keep going. The only thing that makes sense is to have the biggest God of all—the infinite, eternal God of the Bible.
