THE LAW OF CIRCULARITY
( This theme and quotes taken from: The Law of Circularity, J. Preston Eby )
-The following passages of scripture are key verses that unlock the idea or thought of the pre-existence of man. When we
say pre-existence, we are of course meaning that man was first created in the spirit realm before being placed and subjected
in and to the physical realm ( notice Genesis 1:26-28 and Genesis 2:7 ). In essence, we were with God in the beginning,
before our physical birth, coming out from Him. Please notice the following verses.
-Psalm 90:1-3 states, … Lord, You have been our dwelling place IN ALL GENERATIONS. BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS WERE
BROUGHT FORTH, OR EVER YOU HAD FORMED THE EARTH AND THE WORLD, EVEN FROM EVERLASTING ( AGE ) TO EVERLASTING ( AGE
), YOU ARE GOD. You turn man to destruction; and say, RETURN, you children of men …
-Romans 11:36 states, … For OF Him, and THROUGH Him, and TO Him, are ALL THINGS: …
-Romans 11:36 ( Amplified Version ) states, … For FROM Him and THROUGH Him and TO Him are ALL THINGS - for all things
originate with Him and come from Him; all things live through Him, and all things center in and tend to consummate and to
end in Him …
-Let us now try to summarize what is being said from these scripture passages. These verses tell us that mankind had its
origin in God, and that ALL came from God. He is the Father of us ALL! It shows us the pre-existence of man. We were with
God in the beginning, before time began, before the purpose of the ages was put into motion. We are then to derive that mankind
was subjected to vanity, not willingly (Romans 8:20), in order to go through the purpose of the ages and to be made in the
image of God ( for this is to be seen as a process ). And finally, mankind ( including ALL THINGS ) shall be reconciled unto
God in the dispensation of the fullness of times, for God shall be ALL IN ALL ( Colossians 1:20, Ephesians 1:10, 1st
Corinthians 15:28 ).
-Have you ever considered the following words that begin with the prefix “re”: REturn, REstoration, REnew,
REdemption, REconciliation, REsurrection, and REpent??? The prefix “re” means back again, or anew. It speaks of
something that left its place of origin and has now made its circuit and come back to the point of its beginning.
According to J. Preston Eby:
-"The entire universe is an infinite sphere and each galaxy's solar system, star and planet within it moves continuously
and harmoniously in circular motion, thus, all worlds and suns have circles for their pathway. This principle has been referred
to by scientists as the “LAW OF CIRCULARITY.” There is no such thing in the universe as an absolutely straight
line of infinite length. All straight lines will be found to be portions of immense circles. Someone has said ( a scientist
) that if we were to build a telescope that could see into infinity, we would one day be looking at the back of our heads.
We must see that this is also true of God’s dealings with His whole creation. All that existed in Christ before the
ages began, shall return into Him again that He may be the first and the last, the beginning and the end. All that came out
of Him, lowered into the realm of the negative, completes its circuit and returns once more to its former estate - IN GOD ! The first Adam had power to take ALL with Him into death, without their knowledge, or consent:
therefore, the second Adam, the Lord from heaven, gathers up the same number in His redemptive work and man who came out of
God shall return, that the circle may be unbroken." ( The Law of Circularity, J. Preston Eby )
-WE ARE ALL A PART OF THE CIRCLE OF GOD’S ETERNAL PURPOSE!-
