all know that lives in our material body a spirit (soul), which will be separated after death.

My question is:

Were created spirits (souls) before fertilization in a woman?

The spirit (soul) is created at the moment we are born to earthly life?

Thanks

Well, in Genesis 2:7 it says:
Quote
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.


This verse is talking about God forming Adam and it says that he became a living soul when his earthly body was created. So I think your soul would be created at the time that you're conceived in the womb and not beforehand.

I would say we start to exist body and soul the day we are conceived however, God's plan exist eternally from past and future so I believe we exist in some way before that in God's thoughts

The word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” – Jeremiah 1:4-5

based on your response, we conclude that our origin is born long before the material body.
where we were this time?
studying, evolving?

Our homeland is the planet or the spirit world?

I don't think that's what nekrotic meant. Being known in God's plan, is not the same as already living it.

It's like know that the sun will rise tomorrow: Knowing that it will rise, doesn't mean that it's already risen.

Our homeland is the spiritual world. What we perceive to be this "physical reality" is just an illusion. A dream, really.

Time doesn't even exist. You and I are part of a greater wisdom that we will probably never understand.

this concept of being part of a whole (pantheism) no longer exists.

Please, share your simple minded esoteric knowledge; I'm literally at the edge of my seat.
