So also life is eternal, and not created; but life, or the vital force, may be infused into organized matter, though the details of the process have not been revealed unto man.

So all men are eternal and god (if one defines god as having no beginning and no end)

There is no "creation " of new life ..simply a reorganization of existing matter?? ( that is as far as I read so far WM cause I can not get beyond that )

>> So all men are eternal

The elements are eternal, intelligence is eternal, we were all in the beginning with God, we were not created out of nothing when we were born here. That is not how the word "create" should be understood.

>> and god (if one defines god as having no beginning and no end)

That's right. God has no beginning and no end.

>> There is no "creation " of new life ..simply a reorganization of existing matter??

We came here to be added upon. Our spirits were clothed with element, a physical nature, which, though we lay it down at death, we continue to live as spirits, as you know, and then in the resurrection, we shall receive our physical bodies again, as Jesus did, in immortal, glorified form, never to die again, or be sick, or in pain, or hungry, or cold.
