Soul is part of what has always been.

The soul does not have a beginning and an end. It is part of what always has been and shall always be. The continuity of the spiritual essence of all humankind is part of the essence of a higher level, God. God works through each generation according to its capacity and potential. Countless generations ago the potential of humanity as you identify such was significantly limited. Humans were an evolved species, not unlike species of today of a lower order in the animal kingdom. But what made humans different ultimately was the possession of a soul and the recognition of a higher order of spiritual presence.

It was a long time before humans became sufficiently aware of this higher spiritual order or power or presence by identifying it as God. But God’s influence was already at work. The souls from the body of God or from the mass of God were infused with human life. The spiritual entity resulting from being placed by God in a human form has always resonated with the presence of God. This resonance for us is light. In physics you learn that light is a form of vibration, of resonance, but souls resonate with God by the same means. So, God has always communicated with souls from the beginning, you might say.
