Eternal the originator of time - proof.

[Aoi Magi]

Time started, whether we can say there is a before or not, doesn't really matter. It just couldn't have started from nothing.

Which time? Time, as we know it in our universe, started with the big-bang. We have no knowledge of the nature of time outside that, and so cannot claim anything about what is possible outside it. Also "nothing" is a very vague term over here. Time isn't "everything" and it is not certain if some form of existence cannot occur without time. For a photon, time is almost non-existent.

Physical things could not have made time appear from nothing.

Unless you consider the big-bang a non-physical event, time as we know it DID start there.

Therefore it makes sense a Creator with will and power created it.

No it doesn't. It might make sense that there is an "unknown" cause, but there is no indication of any "will" being involved
