• Platonic pre-existence vs. Jewish pre-existence: Which do you follow?
  July 21, 2024
  The Nicene Creed affirms that Yahushua “came down from heaven and was incarnate.” In other words, Yahushua pre-existed his birth. A natural corollary of this understanding is a belief in Yahushua's deity. If he was first in Heaven, he must be a divine being. The first-century Jews believed in the pre-existence of the Messiah. However, there is an irreconcilable difference between the understanding of the Platonic 'Church Fathers' and Yahushua’s Jewish disciples regarding pre-existence. Thus, we are faced today with two 'Christs.' One is a divine being who took upon himself the human nature [aka incarnation] and one whose beginning [genesis] was in the womb of Mary. It does not take long to discover that these two are very different. WLC boldly states that belief in one of these two beings will lead to eternal life, while faith in the second will lead to eternal loss. Therefore, accepting or rejecting the incarnation teaching becomes a salvational matter after exposure to ample biblical evidence proving the incarnation fallacy. When we refuse to study and discover the genuine Christ and choose to cling to the widely accepted fallacy of incarnation, we forfeit the gift of eternal life.
