You: This statement of yours, dear Sister, is presumption and supposition. You are taking the Book of Hebrews out of context and choosing the wrong words. Furthermore, God is not invisible, but simply unseen by certain people.
We've discussed this before IIRC and it would be worth starting back at Genesis 1:1 to understand it correctly. Creation ex nihilo is not a necessary condition of this creation.
God is uncaused, He is the Creator of causation. He has no ancestor. He is the Creator ex nihilo of "all that there is" both spiritual and physical - whether universe, multi-verse, multi-world, ekpyrotic, cyclic, etc. - regardless of dimensionality.
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence. For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven. Colossians 1:15-20
In appearance, Yhwh () is the third person singular imperfect "ḳal" of the verb ("to be"), meaning, therefore, "He is," or "He will be," or, perhaps, "He lives," the root idea of the word being,probably, "to blow," "to breathe," and hence, "to live." With this explanation agrees the meaning of the name given in Ex. iii. 14, where God is represented as speaking, and hence as using the first person"I am" (, from , the later equivalent of the archaic stem ). The meaning would, therefore, be "He who is self-existing, self-sufficient," or, more concretely, "He who lives," the abstract conception of pure existence being foreign to Hebrew thought. There is no doubt that the idea of life was intimately connected with the name Yhwh from early times. He is the living God, as contrasted with the lifeless gods of the heathen, and He is the source and author of life (comp. I Kings xviii.; Isa. xli. 26-29, xliv. 6-20; Jer. x. 10, 14; Gen. ii. 7; etc.). So familiar is this conception of God to the Hebrew mind that it appears in the common formula of an oath, "ḥai Yhwh" (= "as Yhwh lives"; Ruth iii. 13; I Sam. xiv. 45; etc.).
When the Name of God is at issue in a debate on this forum, I simply enter my testimony. I cannot be moved to deny a Name of God even hypothetically.
Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. Matt 10:32-33
And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place. Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God. - Deuteronomy 12:3-4
Hallowed be thy Name.
Agreed, but then you immediately step off the reservation into eisegesis. You have only the Bible to base your beliefs on. Cutting and pasting it into convenient bits doesn't make your case. You lose the context and thus the idea. Eventually, you lose your way.
You go on to make several presumptions not proclaimed in the Bible. Genesis 1:1 says what it says and nothing more.
The Midrash also states that the Torah was the blueprint used for creation. We could go round and round with Rabbinic tradition.
Genesis 1:1 reads: New Living Translation In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
The use of the word "created" is arbitrary. You could just as accurately use the word "formed", perhaps even more accurately as to the eastern mind creating order out of chaos is the greatest act of God. Here's another translation:
Young's Literal Translation In the beginning of God's preparing the heavens and the earth --
The Rabbis recognize that surmising as to what occurred prior to Gen. 1:1 is unwise. Not knowing God you then aspire to describe his attributes. This is why for Jews Christianity is such an offense. Are you familiar with the Mitzvot?
These are the Mosaic Law from the Torah. There are some 613, but the gross number doesn't matter. The first six are universal and always apply. Of those first six the first three are very familiar to Christians:
Ex. 20:2 New Living Translation "I am the LORD your God, who rescued you from the land of Egypt, the place of your slavery.
Again, check the Hebrew carefully and the context also. Who is the audience? We're just looking over Moses' shoulder.
