“Thou Wast Chosen Before Thou Wast Born”

FORE⋅OR⋅DI⋅NA⋅TION: noun, God’s premortal ordination of his spirit children to fulfill certain missions during their mortal lives.
When we apply scriptural teachings in our lives they become more meaningful to us. It is helpful to put ourselves in the place of ancient prophets and their followers as we read and apply the teachings. However, in Abraham 3:22–28 we do not have to put ourselves in someone else’s place because these verses are about important events in which we participated. These events took place during our premortal life. This lesson is about the premortal life, when many spirits were foreordained to do important things for Heavenly Father.
