Did We Exist Before Birth? A Biblical View on Pre-Existence and Reincarnation
What did Jesus mean when He told Nicodemus that no one ascends up to heaven unless they first come down from heaven?
Does our spirit exist before we are born on earth?
What does the Bible say about pre-existence versus concepts like reincarnation?
And if there is a pre-existence, does it relate to our spirit, soul or physical body?
These are important questions.
In this message, we examine:
Jesus’ teaching in John 3:13 and what it reveals about our spiritual journey
The three parts of man — spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5) — and which part may have existed before we were born
The origin and nature of our spirits as formed by God
Biblical perspectives on pre-existence, life on earth, and eternal promises
The two promises of resurrection and redemption of spirit, soul and body
If you have ever wondered about where we came from and how God formed your existence, this message provides a thoughtful and Scriptural foundation.
