WHAT DOES PRE-EXISTENT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Pre-existence

Pre-existence, preexistence, beforelife, or pre-mortal existence refers to the belief that each individual human soul existed before conception, and at some point before birth enters or is placed by God into the body. Concepts of pre-existence can encompass either the belief that the soul came into existence at some time prior to conception or the belief that the soul is eternal. Alternative positions are traducianism and creationism, which both hold that the individual human soul does not come into existence until conception. Ancient Greek thought and Islam affirm pre-existence, but it is generally denied in Judaism and Christianity.
