This is more like what I would expect from a "good mormon" You just set the scripture behind..
Zech 12:1
The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
This verse speaks to the creation of the heavens and the earth, and then it says where the spirit of man was created.. WITHIN HIM! If there was no physical body just what is the "within him" within? You can't create the spirit of man within the spirit of man can you? Did man exist physically in the "pre-existence"? What does the Church say is ONE important reason to come to this world? When a baby dies what do the members of the mormon church say was the reason it was born at all? TO GET A BODY!!! Sorry but the Bible makes it clear in this one verse that Mormonism is a false teaching that there was no pre-existence a main doctrinal point of the mormon gospel.. IHS jim
