Scriptures: The book of Job. Specifically:
21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.
It is funny how one can read the same scripture as another and they get different meanings from them. Meanings that are specific to them. Back in 80's I wasn't too sure there was a God but in reading Job I came to the conclusion there was a God and I should get to know him. Now I read those scriptures and I don't see it. I don't see what caused such revelations. I see something different.
These two scriptures tell me that I come to the earth with nothing including knowledge of our pre-existence. That means we have to take what we learn about God in pure faith. We do return with any knowledge we have but that is all we are naked in material items.
Second: all that we have here on earth comes from God. He can take it at any time. I pray he doesn't but I do know he can. I also know that when I have a need and I have no way of fulfilling that need it arrives. Yes, blessed by his name.
I am not sure I saw those things in those scriptures long ago but I probably wasn't at a place I could receive such. We get that as we need it as well.
