Time never was when man was not.

If life of a man at any time began, a time would come when it would end.

The thoughts of God/Allah cannot be circumscribed. No finite mind can comprehend things infinite. All finite things are subject unto change. All finite things will cease to be because there was a time when they were not.

The bodies and souls of men are finite things and they will change. From the finite point of view, the time will come when they will be no more.

But man himself is not the body, nor the soul; he is a spirit and part of God/Allah.

Creative Fate gave to man, to spirit-man, a soul that he might function on the plane of souls; gave him a body of flesh, that he might function on the plane of things made manifest.

Hear, now, on everything that is, or was, or evermore will be for Wisdom species[?] from the highest plane.

Man is a thought of God/Allah, all thought of God/Allah are infinite. They are not measured by time; for the things that concerned with time begin, and end.

The thoughts of God/Allah, are everlasting of the past unto the never enduring days to come. And so is man, the spirit-man.

But man, like every other thought of Allah/God, was but a seed, a seed that held within itself the potencies of God/Allah, just as the seed of any plant of earth holds deep within itself the attributes of every part of that particular plant. So spirit-man as seed of Allah held deep within himself the attributes of every part of Allah/God.

Now seeds are perfect[,] as perfect[,] as the source from which they come; but they are not unfolded into life made manifest. The child is as perfect as the mother is. So man, the seed must be deeply planted in a soil that he might grow, unfold, as does the bud unfold to show the flower.

The human seed that came forth from the heart of Allah/God was fully ordained to be the Lord of the plane of the soul, and of the plane of things made manifest. So Allah/God planted this human seed into the soil of soul; it grew, and man became a living soul and became the Lord of all the Kingdom of the soul.

Now let every creature hear, the plane of the soul is but the ether of the spirit plane vibrating in the slower rhythm of this plane the essence of life are manifest; the perfumes and the odors, the sensations and the all [All] of love manifest. And these soul attributes became a body beautiful. A multitude of lessons man must learn upon the plane of soul; and here he remains many ages until his lessons are learned.
