God had no beginning: he always was, he is, and always will be.
Everything in the created world has a beginning. People are born, stars form, and even the universe itself had a beginning. God alone is different. He was not created and does not depend on anything else for His existence. God exists eternally, outside the limits of time. He does not grow older, change, or cease to exist. When God revealed Himself to Moses as "I AM", He revealed that He is the eternal and self-existent One. This truth gives Christians confidence because Gods promises do not change. Human beings come and go, but God remains forever the same. His love, faithfulness, truth, and power endure throughout all ages. The eternal nature of God reminds us that our lives are part of a much greater story and that our ultimate hope rests in the One who exists forever.
God is fullness of Being and of every perfection, without origin and without end. In revealing his mysterious name, "I AM WHO I AM", God says who he is and by what name he is to be called forever. God alone IS.
Psalm 90:2
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
