the last effect is the first cause?

like in the big bang/crunch?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bang

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Crunch

like in the Yuga Cycle?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuga_Cycle

if God knows everything he knows all of eternity and eternity is finite
to God?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omniscience

is cyclical cause and effect the answer to the first cause argument?

Employment of a bit of logic will answer your questions, Dale.

Now, we know that creation was a process of transforming from the
simple to the complex. And we know that spaghetti, from it's simple
arrangement in the box, proceeds to a complex pattern when cooked,
and even more so after adding tomato sauce. We know, therefore, that
only the FSM possesses the qualities necessary to have created the
universe.

Further, as explained in the Gospel, we know that the FSM created the
universe and biosphere in four days and then rested for three. Now
that you understand these truths, Dale, I recommend you read the
Gospel of the FSM and seek out a Pastafarian congregation near you to
answer any additional questions you may have in the future.

yes, I have heard of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) and the book

Don't expect many great thinkers in alt.atheism, they prefer the keep it
simple stupid (KISS) principle with emphasis on the stupid. :-).

Rom 5:8  But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
YET sinners, Christ died for us.

"To seek your own will is to seek your own glory".

"If God is not first in everything He is not first in anything".

"Sin is not what you do, it is what you are".

"What makes the bible the truth?" "The resonance of God".

"All men were born sinners. Why? Because all men were born not loving
God with all their heart, soul and mind. An abomination".

"There are no sinners in Christ Jesus".

No Italian in me but my best friend when I first found God was Italian
and I spent many a meal around the noisy table laughing and joking and
eating, and eating...and yeah...eating.

Loved it.

My friend's mother used to start the spaghetti sauce for Sunday lunch
Saturday morning and boil and boil and boil and boil the sauce for what
seemed all day and into the night.

Yet when she had spaghetti she just had it with butter. As I remember
your manhood depended on how much you could eat; a little tongue in
cheek there, but nevertheless.
