    The first premise of the Kalam Cosmological Argument says that whatever begins to exist has a cause of its existence. Why is God not bound by this premise?

    Because God did not “begin” to exist. He is eternal. He is only dependent on himself.

    The Kalam argument is applied to nature, but cannot be applied to God, because God does not have a beginning. He is eternal and in a different category from the created being.

    God has no beginning of existence. He simply exists.

    God did not begin to exist, he is eternal. No beginning and no end. He is, was, and always will be.

    God is not bound by this because God is not a being of composite contingent forces, God is uncreated and no one designed the creator. Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth.” God was there before creation.
