Why Yahweh’s existence as Elohim in heaven makes perfect sense in the logic of genuine spiritual faith
Yahweh is Heaven’s Elohim and He Truly Exists!
Hello and welcome back to Spiritual Podcast, where we let the Bible interpret itself. I’m Elder Jo, your host for today. Elder Dan is doing an outreach for our ministry. In this podcast episode, we’re diving deep into something that keeps philosophers, scientists, and truth-seekers up at night: Does Yahweh, the Almighty Father in heaven, actually exist? And if so, can we know it through reason alone?
Grab your coffee and settle in, because we’re about to explore how the Holy Scripture itself invites us to think very deeply about this question.

The Universe Whispers His Name
You know what blows my mind every single morning? I step outside, look up at the sky, and realize I’m staring at something that shouldn’t exist by accident. The Apostle Paul knew this feeling when he wrote in Romans 1:20: “For since the creation of the world Yahweh’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.”
Think about that for a moment. Paul isn’t just throwing around religious poetry here. He’s making a logical argument that the natural world itself serves as evidence for Elohim’s existence. When we look at the intricate design of a single cell, the precise mathematical constants that allow stars to shine, or the way ecosystems balance themselves with stunning complexity, we’re witnessing what philosophers call the “argument from design.”
But here’s where it gets really interesting. Modern science has only strengthened this case. The more we discover about quantum mechanics, DNA, and cosmic fine-tuning, the more we realize we’re living in a universe that appears intentionally crafted for life. That’s not blind faith talking—that’s following the evidence where it leads.
The Moral Compass Points Somewhere
Now, let’s talk about something we all experience but rarely stop to examine: our moral intuitions. Why do we instinctively know that protecting innocent children is good? Why does injustice make us very upset, even when it doesn’t affect us personally?
The writer of Ecclesiastes captures this beautifully in chapter 3, verse 11: “He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what Yahweh has done from beginning to end.”
That phrase “eternity in the human heart” hits different when you really think about it. We’re the only creatures on Earth who wrestle with questions of ultimate meaning, who feel guilt over moral failures, who yearn for perfect justice. Where does that come from?
If we’re just highly evolved animals, why do we have this built-in sense that some things are absolutely right and others absolutely wrong? This is the “Moral Law,” and it points directly to a Moral Law-giver. The Bible suggests we’re made “in Elohim’s image” (Genesis 1:27), which explains why we carry these divine fingerprints in our conscience.
The Question of Origins
Here’s where things get philosophically fascinating. Everything that begins to exist has a cause. The universe began to exist—science confirms this through the Big Bang theory. Therefore, the universe has a cause that exists outside of space, time, and matter.
This isn’t some medieval argument that modern science has debunked. This is basic logic that even atheist philosophers take seriously. The question becomes: What kind of cause could bring an entire universe into existence from nothing?
The Holy Scripture anticipated this question thousands of years ago. In Genesis 1:1, we read: “In the beginning Elohim created the heavens and the earth.” The Hebrew word “bara” used here means to create something from nothing—exactly what cosmology suggests happened at the universe’s beginning.
But here’s what really gets me excited: The Bible doesn’t just claim Elohim exists; it invites us to test that claim. In Psalm 34:8, David writes: “Taste and see that Yahweh is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” That’s an empirical invitation—try it and see what happens.
The Problem of Evil (And Why It Actually Points to Yahweh)
Now, I know what some of you are thinking: “Elder Jo, if Yahweh exists, why is there so much suffering in the world?” It’s the oldest objection in the book, and honestly, it’s one that deserves serious consideration. Elder Dan did a podcast on that topic previously, so check it out.
But here’s something that might surprise you: The problem of evil actually requires Yahweh’s existence to be a real problem at all. Think about it. If there’s no Elohim, then there’s no objective standard of good and evil—just personal preferences and cultural norms. The very fact that we recognize evil as genuinely wicked, not just inconvenient or unpleasant, suggests we’re measuring it against an absolute standard of goodness.
Yes, Yahshua the Messiah himself acknowledged this tension in John 16:33: He says, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Notice he doesn’t deny suffering exists. Instead, he locates it within a larger story where justice and redemption ultimately triumph.
The Invitation to Know
Friends, I’m not asking you to check your brain at the door. The Bible itself encourages intellectual engagement. In Isaiah 1:18, Yahweh says: “Come now, let us settle the matter. Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.”
That phrase “let us settle the matter” suggests Elohim welcomes our questions and invites reasoned dialogue. Faith and reason aren’t enemies—they’re dance partners in the beautiful choreography of truth-seeking.
The Apostle Peter goes even further in 1 Peter 3:15, instructing believers to “always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” The word “reason” there is “logos” in Greek—the same word used for logical argument. Peter expects all genuine followers and believers of Yahweh and Yahshua to have good reasons for their faith.
Where Do We Go From Here?
Look, I get it. Believing in Almighty Yahweh and Messiah Yahshua requires a leap—but it’s not a leap into darkness. It’s a leap into the light of the best explanation we have for why anything exists at all, why we experience moral obligations, why the universe appears fine-tuned for life, and why we hunger for meaning that transcends our material circumstances.
The evidence doesn’t only prove Yahweh’s existence with mathematical certainty—that’s not how these ultimate questions work. But it does make faith in Elohim the most reasonable inference from what we observe about reality.
As the Psalmist wrote in Psalm 19:1: “The heavens declare the glory of Yahweh; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” Yes, the creation itself is Yahweh’s first evidence and sermon, and for those willing to listen, it makes a compelling case.
So here’s my challenge for you from starting today and forward: Look around you with fresh eyes and an open mind. Notice the intricate beauty of a flower, the mathematical precision of a sunset, the way your conscience speaks up when you see injustice. Ask yourself: What’s the best explanation for all this wonder and moral weight?
I believe you’ll find that the most logical answer to why Yahweh’s existence makes perfect sense is also the most beautiful one through the lens of this biblical passage: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim” (John 1:1).
Indeed, I encourage each and every one of you listening or reading this who are doubting Yahweh, our Elohim, and His existence, to think of all the things I mentioned in this podcast episode.

Until next time, keep seeking, keep questioning, and remember—the Elohim in heaven who created the universe is more than big enough to handle your doubts.
Brethren, before I go, let me pray this prayer for you: May Yahweh bless you and keep you; may Yahweh make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; may Yahweh lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace. I humbly pray all these things to Yahweh through Yahshua the Messiah, our Master and coming King, amen. Kindly keep praying for the shalom of Israel. Take care. Halleluyah!
