There was a time before creation. Oh, boy! Please explain what did this "time" measure? Don't you know that eternity is "timelessness?"

God "existed" before He created the heavens and earth, Kosta.
Or don't you believe that?

Time measures a reality, an existence. Just as Dr. E. said, God existed before He created. The alternative is that creation is itself eternal just as God is. The Bible just doesn't say that. The Bible says "In the beginning", YET we know that God HAS no beginning. Ergo, God existed before creation. I'm no temporal physicist, but this seems pretty basic to me. :)
