   "Came from" implies that God is part of time, but if time   
   is part of God's creation, talk about "where God came from"   
   is arguing from a false premise.  Eternal means "outside   
   of time entirely."   
      
   At some point, we have to just accept that we aren't going   
   to fully understand God.  Any god we could figure out would   
   not be **GOD**, it would be an idol of our own creation.   
      
   Any actual understanding would have to some from the other   
   direction, God revealing Himself to us.
