He exists all the time, ahead of time. I am sure he would not be micromanaging each meat bag in the simulation harder than Jeff Bezos micromanages his piss breaks. Regardless, as per my other reply, the quote doesn’t count as all standards have been overruled by the new testament. Before you ask why there are new/old testaments despite “existing all the time”, I say he just fast forwarded then saw what happened and pushed the Jesus update to fix it.
It says “fullfill”. “I came here not to abolish” quite literally meant that the old testament were to still be considered part of the Christian bible and kept for reference. It’s a bit difficult for me to define “fullfill”, although the “New Living Translation” is in my opinion more clear on it with “accomplish their purpose”. “Purpose” refers to the one described in Jeremiah 31:31-34.

How do you interpret Matthew 5:17 - 5:18 regarding the Jesus update? Isn’t this Jesus saying that the old testament still stands?

I beg your pardon, did I say something negative or was there another reason for such an offer?
