1. Paul’s Witness: Jesus is Alive with the Father
In his letters to Timothy, Paul emphasizes that God is the "King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God".
* Jesus as Living: Paul confirms that although Jesus died to save sinners, He is now the "one mediator between God and mankind".
* The Living God: Paul urges Timothy to put his hope in the "living God, who is the Savior of all people". This supports your point that God isn't a historical figure but a present, existing reality.
2. The First 3 Chapters of Moses (Genesis): A Unique Beginning
The vlogger's argument likely centers on how Genesis 1-3 provides an "awareness of God" that differs fundamentally from other religious books:
Order vs. Chaos: Unlike other ancient myths (like the Babylonian Enuma Elish) where the world is born from a war between gods, the books of Moses show a rational, orderly creation spoken into existence by one God.
Human Dignity: Other traditions often viewed humans as accidental byproducts or slaves to the gods. Genesis 1-3 reveals humans are intentionally made in the image of God—a claim that grants humans a unique status and beginning not found in other texts.
* God’s Transcendence: While other books describe gods having origins (births), the Mosaic books simply state, "In the beginning God," presenting Him as self-existent and already there.
3. The Awareness of the Israelites
Through these first chapters, the Israelites became aware of a God who is both transcendent (creator of the universe) and personal (walking in the garden with humans). This "awareness" is what the vlogger likely means: a direct revelation of human origins that other cultures either "refuse" or simply do not have, focusing instead on polytheism or violence
