Preexistence of Manifestations of God
From Bahai9
The Souls of the Prophets Are Pre-Existent[edit]
"The Prophets, unlike us, are pre-existent. The Soul of Christ existed in the spiritual world before His birth in this world. We cannot imagine what that world is like, so words are inadequate to picture His state of being.
- (From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, October 9, 1947, in Lights of Guidance, no. 1699)
