What does it mean that Jesus's existence was 'from everlasting'?

Answered in 1 source

'From everlasting' indicates that Jesus is eternal, having no beginning, and existing before His incarnation.

'From everlasting' signifies the eternal nature of Jesus Christ. This statement acknowledges that He is not merely a historical figure who began His existence at birth in Bethlehem but is part of the divine Trinity, existing eternally with God the Father. This doctrine emphasizes the pre-incarnate existence of Christ, aligning with John 1:1, which describes the Word (Jesus) as being with God and being God. Understanding Christ's eternal nature is foundational for recognizing His authority and role in salvation history.
