No God created the universe we occupy. But God did not create himself. He is the Great I Am. Without beginning or end and unchanging.
Which is why the bible schools us on questioning God’s purpose or intent.
God tells us His original creation was “good” and we broke it by choosing disobedience. I’m not going to argue with Him over it.
As for how humans are made in the “image of God”... that seems to be in that we have both free will and creative/imaginative capabilities which other created beings like angels don’t have or no longer have.
“God tells us His original creation was “good” and we broke it by choosing disobedience.”
That makes no sense - obviously his creation wasn’t that good, otherwise we wouldn’t have disobeyed him and do bad things.
Would you purposefully build a robot that disobeys you? And if you made a mistake and did build a faulty robot, doesn’t that make you less than perfect?
