| Pre-Conception Existence - an intro | |
| By: guest58 Date: May 11, 2019, 5:11 pm | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Theories of the creation of Spirits in GOD�s image | |
| Traducianism is a doctrine about the origin of the soul or | |
| synonymously, spirit, holding that this immaterial aspect is | |
| transmitted through natural generation along with the body, the | |
| material aspect of human beings. | |
| Creationism of the soul / spirit is a doctrine held by some | |
| Christians that God creates a soul for each body that is | |
| generated by physical conception. | |
| The Pre-Conception Existence (PCE) of the soul / spirit. All | |
| spirits created in the image of GOD were created at the same | |
| time BEFORE the creation of the physical universe which we all | |
| saw, Job 38:7 and Rom 1:20. | |
| In this forum I will discuss as I can the scriptures in support | |
| of PCE. I have studied this theory for circa 40 years so | |
| rebuttal designed to teach me what orthodoxy says will be a | |
| total waste of time and energy. Better would be an exegesis of | |
| the verses I use to prove I�ve missed their meaning, ie, I�d | |
| rather discuss interpretation than ortho doctrine. | |
| Of course I do not take my interpretation to be the only option | |
| - I present it to encourage lateral thinking about the | |
| blasphemies underlying Christian doctrine to encourage a search | |
| for the best solution. I do not believe there is any one or two | |
| verses that are so perfect they prove without doubt that PCE is | |
| true any more than there are any such verses that prove | |
| Calvinism, Arminianism or Catholicism are true. | |
| I also challenge anyone to find even one verse that even simply | |
| implies that PCE might be theologically impossible - waste all | |
| the time you want on this one; it is not there. | |
| I will also visit the blasphemies that orthodoxy is founded upon | |
| and discuss the PCE alternatives. As a challenge I ask: Do you | |
| know of any blasphemies at the base of Christian orthodoxy? If | |
| not, why not? Are you not educated bible scholars yet you have | |
| never come across anything that someone has suggested is a | |
| blasphemy at the base of Christianity? Should be fun, eh? | |
| Here are some hints for understanding the posts in this | |
| section: When it asks you a question, try to answer it. Don't | |
| put finding the answer off. Secondly, don't read it so fast. You | |
| will notice that you just can't breeze over it and have it make | |
| sense immediately. On the other hand, it will make good sense if | |
| you go slow and answer the questions (or, at least, try to). | |
| You're going to have to do some work to see things this way. | |
| Blessed are those who are hungry enough to do the work, at | |
| least, that's what everyone says who has already worked hard | |
| enough to have climbed this mountain. They all say that the view | |
| is absolutely out of this world, and that the fruit at the top | |
| is even better, definitely worth the effort. | |

| [/quote]Very interesting and I think supported. I read some | |
| interesting testimony from Edgar Cayce who many say was in touch | |
| with the spirit of God and he said all souls were created in the | |
| beginning and none have been created since. He also talked about | |
| reincarnation while in a trance like state. He could speak other | |
| languages and could see and know things in the trance that he | |
| did not know when he was awake. | |
| I'm not trying to change the subject nor am I relating PCE to | |
| Edgar Cayce or reincarnation. I'm only relaying what I read as I | |
| was reading that book before I started reading the Bible. Thank | |
| you Ted, I will enjoy your posts very much. | |

| Edgar Cayce, my my, a name from long long ago... | |
| Most of the world believes in some form of pre-earth existence | |
| except Christianity. IF I did not think the Bible supported PCE | |
| then I would not accept it, not matter what the rest of the | |
| world believed. | |
| But I do think the Bible supports PCE. | |
| As for reincarnation, I think reincarnation and PCE are two | |
| distinct and separate theologies, not corollaries of each other. | |
| There is room in PCE for the reincarnation of the non-elect. I | |
| don't think their reincarnation does them any good at all but it | |
| does bear witness to the sinful elect that these reprobate will | |
| never, can never, change no matter how many lives they live thru | |
| and therefore their end in the outer darkness is a forced | |
| inevitably. It may also account for the sinfulness of animals | |
| (proven later) if they are inhabited by 'dead' sinful spirits. | |
| To think that the sinful elect need more than one life to be | |
| redeemed casts aspersion upon HIS ability to deal with them in | |
| one lifetime, so I reject reincarnation for the elect on earth. | |

| I read the answer in Romans 1 where it talks about sinners | |
| repressing, suppressing, the truth becomes they love sin more | |
| than the truth. It is one of the more pernicious effects of | |
| becoming a sinner, sigh. Romans does speak specifically to those | |
| under HIS wrath and I believe John 3:18 Whoever believes in him | |
| is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned | |
| already because they have not believed in the name of God's one | |
| and only Son. tells us that sinful believers are never under | |
| condemnation, ie, wrath, but I have experienced this repression | |
| in myself in my sin so I am comfortable thinking it applies to | |
| the uncondemned sinful elect also. | |
| Also, there is whole Christian sub-culture that insists on death | |
| as a return home which is perfectly PCE even without the | |
| theology and it implies that some residual memory of pre-earth | |
| as our home might exist. | |

| I have heard this theory expressed in many ways. | |
| One was that all the pre-created spirit beings had to consent to | |
| becoming man (a physical creation in the physical creation of | |
| earth). | |
| Satan/Lucifer would not consent and that is why he was cursed | |
| with no chance of redemption. | |
| Satan thought he should rise to a higher state, not humble | |
| himself to a lower state. | |

| Now this is fanciful, :) | |
| Please consider: | |
| Satan and his crew sinned the unforgivable sin of attributing to | |
| GOD evil in HIS nature, in HIS intent and in HIS actions. IF | |
| they were still forgivable then they would be forgiven; ie, no | |
| one who can be saved will not be saved. | |
| Then he and his were flung to the earth and bound by chains OF | |
| darkness ie blinded to the truth of YHWH's Divinity and | |
| Righteousness by their own desire to be evil, Rom | |
| 1:21[sup]+[/sup] | |
| Revelation 12:4 Its tail swept a third of the stars out of | |
| the sky and flung them to the earth. | |
| Flung is the same word used twice in Rev 12:7 Then a war broke | |
| out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, | |
| and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But the dragon was | |
| not strong enough, and no longer was any place found in heaven | |
| for him and his angels. 9 And the great dragon was hurled | |
| down�that ancient serpent called the devil and Satan, the | |
| deceiver of the whole world. He was hurled to the earth, and his | |
| angels with him. Since flung has a meaning of harsh treatment | |
| from anger and it is also a strange thing for Satan to dispel a | |
| third of his cohorts BEFORE the war with Michael et al started, | |
| I suggest that the 1/3 he flung to earth were the elect who came | |
| under his spell and sinned which, though sinners, were of no use | |
| to him (since they were elect) therefore he rejected them, got | |
| them out of his way, before the war started. | |
| Thus all sinners, elect sinners and eternally evil sinners, were | |
| sent to Sheol in the centre of the earth to await their time to | |
| be sown into the world as per Matt 13:36 Then He left the crowds | |
| and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him and said, | |
| �EXPLAIN to us the parable of the tares of the field.� 37 And He | |
| said, �The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man, 38 and | |
| the field is the world; and as for the good seed, these are the | |
| sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one; | |
| 39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil...to which the | |
| wicked return upon death: Ps 9:17 The wicked do turn back to / | |
| return to Sheol, All nations forgetting God. Going to Sheol is | |
| the result of a judgment. The implication is clear. The wicked | |
| are punished by being sent to back to Sheol instead of heaven. | |
| The word is translated as return 391 times by the biased KJV, | |
