Bible Truth and Prophecy: Did the Lord Jesus Christ Pre exist?

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css="" css_animation="none"]A @Christadelphians Video: Description: From the very beginning of the Bible, Jesus was in the mind of God. This is evident from the promise made in the Garden of Eden, after Adam and Eve sinned. The promise was that a descendant of the woman would eventually come to destroy the power of sin. Throughout the Old Testament there are many allusions and prophecies regarding the coming of a Saviour. Jesus was always in God’s Plan, but he never existed physically until he was born of Mary about 2000 years ago. ### Summary This presentation discusses the pre-existence of the Lord Jesus Christ and examines the scriptural evidence to determine whether He existed before His birth. The speaker presents a hypothesis that the Lord Jesus Christ was in the mind of God from the very beginning, but did not exist physically until He was born of Mary. The presentation explores various passages from the Old and New Testaments to support this view and refute the concept of the Trinity. ### Highlights 🔍 The speaker emphasizes the importance of examining Scripture as a whole, rather than focusing on isolated verses, to understand doctrinal truths. 🔍 The Lord Jesus Christ is central to God's plan and purpose, as evidenced by His appearance in all but one book of the New Testament. 🔍 The speaker presents the hypothesis that the Lord Jesus Christ was in the mind of God from the beginning, but did not exist physically until His birth. 🔍 The creation account in Genesis 1 is used to illustrate the principle of God calling people from darkness into the light, which is fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ. 🔍 The prophecy in Genesis 3:15 about the seed of the woman bruising the serpent's head is seen as a reference to the Lord Jesus Christ. 🔍 The speaker examines the context of the Lord Jesus Christ's statements in John 6 and 8 to show that He did not pre-exist before His birth, but was sent by God and made of a woman. 🔍 The speaker emphasizes the necessity of the Lord Jesus Christ being fully human in order to experience human nature and overcome sin. ### Keywords - Pre-existence of Christ - Christology - Trinitarian theology ### Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction to the importance of examining Scripture as a whole 01:14 - Presentation of the hypothesis about the Lord Jesus Christ's pre-existence 02:18 - Exploration of the creation account in Genesis 1 and its connection to the Lord Jesus Christ 05:49 - Examination of the prophecy in Genesis 3:15 and its reference to the Lord Jesus Christ 09:18 - Discussion of the Lord Jesus Christ's statements in John 6 and 8 about His origins 13:51 - Emphasis on the necessity of the Lord Jesus Christ being fully human 15:33 - Concluding remarks on the presentation's key points [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qA2keO5_h0Y[/embedyt][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation="none"]*************************************************************************************** This video was produced by the ChristadelphianVideo.org project, arranged and supported by Christadelphians worldwide.
