A definition provides clarity to a word.
Yes, but it doesn't turn it into a fact. It only tells you how somebody understands the word.

The argument here is about defining a Christian. You argue your definition and I argue mine.
But at least I have laid out my definition - you need to provide your own.

What if our universe was not the first one, but just one of many universes that has existed?
How would it affect your religious beliefs?
Would a string of universes be yet an other reason for people to not believe in a God or gods?
What is left then is God created itIt just kicks the can down the road. That would not offer an explanation for the creation of the first universe either.

But to be spawned, it had to be one firstOr not. What of the possibility that the cosmos has always existed, infinitely spawing new universe.
It doesn't change existing belief because no first cause have been determined by this theory which would deny God as being the first cause.What if our universe was not the first one, but just one of many universes that has existed?

What is the cosmos?
I agree.
But who created god
I have recently began to consider it all of everything.
I think it odd to say that the cosmos cannot be infinite in time but you have no problem with your god being infinite in time

The definition of God includes his eternal existence, so if there is a God he was not created.
In order for anything to exist something must be eternal.
Couldn't you just as easily call it God?
My understanding is that God created our universe, so God may be infiniteI think it odd to say that the cosmos cannot be infinite in time but you have no problem with your god being infinite in time
That's a valid point.
However, something must be eternal in order for anything to exist.
Which makes more sense? A supernatural being that always existed, or inanimate matter than always existed?
