The soul of Christ existed in the spiritual world before His birth in this world

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, 'High Endeavours - Messages to Alaska’)
