I believe in our existence (before our earthly conception) in the spirit world sheol wherein we chose by true free will our eternal relationship with YHWH, our creator.
I keep having people say, " Isn't that Mormonism?" and while I know it is not, I remain unsure how a Mormon might phrase their theology about our pre-existence.
Anybody? May we discuss or informally debate?
Peace, Ted

Questions about Mormonism...
Post #1PCE Theology as I see it...
We had an existence with a free will in Sheol before the creation of the physical universe. Here we chose to be able to become holy or to be eternally evil in YHWH's sight. Then the physical universe was created and all sinners were sent to earth.
This theology debunks the need to base Christianity upon the blasphemy of creating us in Adam's sin.

Cool, great country, humble people, and kind too.
Where did you serve your mission? Filipinos that go out of the country are few, and only to select places too.

I'm not sure, I know that they want to have people serve in their own country, at least for the Philippines. But other than that, beats me.
