Some people believe that God is the God of all but Jesus says otherwise. He said that the LORD is the God of those who live and describes the living.
Do you know who the living are?
“He (the Father) is the God of the living not of the dead.”
“He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.”
This earth and its inhabitants are not the center of all that exists, neither are its beliefs, which vary depending on the individual. Now, we are all subjected to gravity and that of death, whether you want to believe that is up to you? But if you jump out of an airplane from 2-3 miles up, might I suggest wearing a parachute as having the faith that you are superman with special powers won't save your life!
The living which God is the God of is potentially all the people of the earth has the ability to surrender to Jesus Christ and follow His commands, so God so loves the world ........ The dead are people who died and ignored God and were lost to God, as then the living are people who have surrendered to Jesus and the people who have passed on and have gone to be with Jesus in heaven are the living ............ God is the God of Abraham Issac, and Jacob and many of their decedents because they also are the living as they have gone on to be with Jesus, and were collected by God
Yes. It doesn't imply a personal relationship with all mankind.
Exodus 7:3 - But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart that I may multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.

You are an expert at not answering questions clearly. It's truly amazing.

You may be blinded by your beliefs, but reality is reality or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them.

Because of the coming Resurrection is why God can think of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as being alive.
Remember: Hebrews 11:13 and Hebrews 11:39 let us know they have Not yet received the promise ( resurrection ).
At KJV Psalms 110 we find two (2) LORD/Lord's mentioned.
The LORD in ALL Upper-Case letters stands for LORD (YHWH) God ( Tetragrammaton )
The other Lord in some lower-case letters stands for Lord Jesus and the Tetragrammaton YHWH never applies.
This is why KJV at Psalm 83:18 says that Hebrew Yahweh/Jehovah in English is Most High God.
............ ............ God is the God of Abraham Issac, and Jacob and many of their descendants because they also are the living as they have gone on to be with Jesus, and were collected by God
I find they are as 'good as being alive' but Not because they have gone on anywhere.
I find they are still dead according to Hebrews 11:13; Hebrews 11:39.
They have Not yet received or seen the promise of Genesis 12:3; Genesis 22:18 that ALL families of Earth will be blessed, and ALL nations of Earth will be blessed. Blessed with the benefit of 'healing ' for earth's nations - Rev. 22:2.
No one who died before Jesus was offered Heaven -> John 3:13; Acts 2:34; Matthew 11:11.
Old Testament people have the opportunity to have a happy-and-healthy physical resurrection to live life eternally on Earth.
A beautiful paradisical Earth as described in the 35th chapter of Isaiah.

Is Yahweh the God of all mankind?
