Question:
The before-life; What happened before I came to Earth?
2008-05-22 17:21:05 UTC
I have heard about the after-life so many times and all the near death expierences people have had going up the tunnel to the light.
But I never hear anything about the before-life.
The before-life was the place my spirit was before I had a body; before birth, before the womb, before conception.

I have tried to research this issue.
It is driving me nuts.

Is there anyone that knows anything about this or where I can find out about this topic.
There seems to be almost nothing on the internet about what happened in the before-life.

The Well of Souls, or Anwyn-it`s a place of pure energy, formless, but full of potential.



Or perhaps you mean your last life.

You have correctly said, "my spirit" and that is the Key. Man is a three fold being, the body, the soul and the spirit. No doubt famaliarly the body is made of the dust of the ground, this is also scientifically verifiable. Initially God "Breathed into the nostril and man became a living soul". Job declared that the breathe that went in and out of his nostrils was the Spirit of God. To answer shortly what should be necessarily a longer answer. Your soul is/was a part of God. He imparted it to you for your being and keeping while in this life. At death God takes back his Spirit, freeing you(the soul) from the body. The body, only dust and already in a state of deteriation, suddenly accelerates in deteriation and quickly if not hinder, goes back to the dust. The soul(YOU) goes to its long home, where ever it will spend eternity. If you will read John ch 10 vs 34,35 then you will see how the above is true. Again, before life, you existed in the mind of your Creator.

In the second last paragraph on page #2 in the Zhuan Falun Lecture on the web, you can find out how we get to earth.



Falun Gong is a unique Buddhist Schools. Falun Gong is based upon the universal principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance. Falun Gong consists of five sets of powerful exercises.



Falun Gong, Tibetans,other Buddhists, and Christians have been persecuted in China. The most offensive human right violation is the organ harvesting from the Falun Gong practitioners in China.



Can you support Falun Gong practitioners in China, please ?

The Bible tells you that it is God's will that you grow in your relationship with Christ, and live the awesome life He planned for you. (Eph. 2:10)



God has given you answers in His Word to the "puzzle" of how to grow and live an extreme…awesome life in Christ.



Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation;

for you have tasted the kindness of the Lord

Once you were no people but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy but now you have received mercy. In the Bible, it is also stated that if you have faith as small as the mustard seed, you can move mountains. So we should believe in God. We should believe that God will provide us with the environment where the mustard seed can grow and flourish. LUKE 8:11 NKJ



11 "Now the parable is this: The seed is the Word Of God





The Holy Ghost, through Peter, also said God's Word is a seed.



1 PETER 1:23 NKJ



23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and abides forever,



God's Word is alive. Just like a seed -- the Bible is full of unseen life.



JOHN 6:63 NKJ



63 "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.



Jesus said His words are alive. They contain life. The words in your Bible may look lifeless and powerless. Seeds do, too. But they are not without life or power.



In Mark 4:30-31, Jesus explained that the kingdom of God works like a seed. So, if we are to understand God's kingdom and how He operates, we need to understand seeds. YOU THE SEED God

there is no before life. the reference in jeremiah states that the all knowing God already knew who and what you would be when He created you, not that you were with Him. if that were the case, why would you be created and sent here? this is actually the before life, before your eternity begins in either heaven or hell. i know this probably isnt going to suffice with you, since its so simple and boring but sometimes the easy answers are the real ones.

There.... a guinea pig explained it. I thought it would take at least a sheep!



There would be something ironic about that, you Christians being sheep and Jesus being the shepherd and all.... anyway, what happens to sheep? Hey? You know, when shepherds have finished shepherding, where do they take you? Huh?



Mint sauce anyone?



Yes, it's that simple... no ewe, ewe, no ewe! OK?

Listen Snow man the bible clearly states that God knew your substance before you were being form. Read Psalms 103.

Hi Snowman,



I dont think we existed before we were conceived..



I would be inclinded to say that our souls come into existence somewhere in between conception and viable fetushood.





Cordially,

If you read Jeremiah 1:5 he speaks about eugenics as if he lived another life before his earth life.

The same thing that happens after-life I'm assuming: Absolutely nothing.

In Jeremiah,,1,,5,,

God said,,,,before I formed thee in the belly,,I knew thee

and before thou came forth out of the womb

I sanctified thee,,,,,,so from that being said

we were with God in Heaven, and will return when we die if we are saved.

Before you were God. You chose seperation from your self, because the hope of reunion is pretty pleasurable.

You never existed until after you started to grow in your mothers womb. That is the worlds view that your spirit existed before you were forming in your mothers womb.
