Good questions 250, these are the same questions mankind has been asking since the begining, and some of them I would like to ask God myself when I meet Him.
Why is there a God? I have no idea why God is all I know is that He says "I am Who I am". I plan on asking Him why myself when I meet Him, but until then "I am" is good enough for me.
Why does he create the world? I plan on asking Him that too. I suspect it is because He has love to give.
He creates human just so that humans can suffer, moan, progress and accept his love? He loves us and wants us to accept his love, the suffering, mouning, and the like come about because we bring it on ourselves. It has to do with free will I believe. There's a saying "If you love something set it free if it comes back to you it's yours. If it doesn't come back it never was" Those of us that Love the Lord come back to Him, those that don't love the Lord don't come back.
If he is so mighty, surely there is no reason for him to create us? There is no reason that we know of, except that He loves.
And why and what does it mean that he loves us? He gave us this world to live in, and the freedom to choose our own course. More importantly He gave His Son to Die for our sins, because nothing we do can erase sin.
We could never existed, and it wouldn't matter to anyone because he is the God
It would matter to Him.
I hope that helps. There are questions that we will probibily not get an answer to in this life, but as you said He is the God.

thanks, Harris, this is the first time you answered my post
well, maybe it is because this is the first time I get serious?
anyway, thanks for your effort, but your answers are truely like puzzle answering puzzle, only made me more confused. I am still chewing on the idea of "faith" and God, I will get back to you later, and re-read your answers many times, I just need some time for all those ideas. once again, thanks
