Subject: jesus born prior to earth? |
Bible Note: When Jesus was born he became what He was not previously (incarnated in human flesh) and He still is what he became at the incarnation (a risen and glorified version). Is He God? Yes. Does that mean that He could be said to pre-exist? No, not as He is now after the incarnation. So is pre-existence a useful term? Not if we are talking about Jesus Christ. It is only discriptive of existing in essence as part of the Godhead. But I wouldn't use a term like pre-existence to describe any thing other than God not the incarnation. |
