       Remember, God is an eternal, everlasting being, in that he was never created, and has no end. There never has been a moment in the existence of anything of which God has not existed. God transcends all things. I know this can be hard for us to wrap our minds around. It defies the laws we see in our current realm of existence. In other words, we try to use the laws of our current realm to understand God, but we really cannot understand him. Another way to say it is our brains were programmed, if you will, to believe there has to be a beginning and an end to everything. With God, though, there never was a beginning and he has no end. We, as humans, in contrast do have a beginning; we just have no end. We are created; God was not (see Exodus 3:14 & John 8:58). Now, Jesus also notes that God’s ‘name’ is holy. I’m sure as we’ve read through the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments alike, we have noticed over time that many names are used for God.
