Yes, God is Creator of everything.

Did he create himself? In a similar question, When Moses was told to go to the people, Moses let God know that the people would want to know who sent him and Creator said to tell them that "I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.'"

Do I have proof? Certainly I do, but you cannot know it unless you first seek.

Did God create everything? Did he create himself? How did that happen?

Those are great questions, let's see if I could attempt an explanation for you...

Imagine a fish in the water minding his own business and living his life as best he can. Does he have any idea about anything on the land? Could that fish ever possibly imagine what it would be like to sit in a concert hall and enjoy a brilliantly played Mozart piano concerto? Of course not... these may sound like silly questions, but they're also great questions.

Simply stated, if you lived in a two dimensional world, then you could not conceive of three dimensional space. The latest quantum theorists tell us that there are many dimensions, but we only live in a three dimensional realm, there is no way that our brain, which is hard wired to perceive and understand only three dimensional processes, could grasp anything beyond our own three dimensions.

As I understand it, God created everything. But before He created everything, He also had to create nothing in order to put everything into it, and then out of complete nothingness He created everything... God Himself, by the very definition of what He is, was not created, He always was and always will be... now, this is a simple enough concept for humans to grasp... in fact, as I understand it, God continues to create everything in order for our reality to continue to exist... the instant God stops willing our reality, then everything will blink out of existence...

Okay, that's my two cents...<g>
