I don't know—who existed before it?
No, I didn't. Care to elaborate?
Allow me to explain then.
Spacetime exists across a multitude of dimensions.
One can even calculate exactly how many there are.
All these dimensions are interconnected, yet they function as distinct realities unto themselves.
For instance, at the exact same moment our dimension of spacetime exists, all the others exist too; however, within our specific realm, those other dimensions don't manifest as spacetime because they are far too small. It is much like how we, along with the entire universe, do not exist as a spacetime entity within any other dimension.
Now, each dimension can only come into existence once in all of eternity.
Why is that?
Because the moment immediately preceding or following it, another dimension is already forming—one in which our own doesn't even exist as a spacetime construct.
In short, there was ONLY ONE MOMENT when our dimension of spacetime could have been born.
And that moment occurred.
That was the birth of our spacetime; prior to that, from our perspective, neither time nor space existed.
But since our dimension is merely one among many, it stands to reason that time and space did indeed exist before ours—they just belonged to different dimensions that occupy neither space nor time within our own.
I'm not quite sure how well I've managed to convey this.
All these various dimensions of spacetime are what all beings refer to as God.
And so.
When our dimension of spacetime emerged from God (who is not a person), the first civilization was born, representing the oldest intelligence within our dimension.
The first being is the ruler, or king, or the Son of God, as everyone calls Him.
After countless billions of years, the first civilization succeeded in creating the first matter; everything after that—the universe, humanity—is just history.
Therefore, we cannot retreat into infinity regarding who came before, because we eventually hit that point in the past where our specific time and space simply did not exist.
Which is why the Bible says, "In the beginning was the Word...!"
This refers to the beginning of our dimension.
Whoever was born first would be the oldest, wouldn't they?
