Prawujud Yesus
Doktrin pra-keberadaan Yesus menegaskan keberadaan ontologi atau pribadi Yesus sebelum kelahirannya. Salah satu firman Alkitab yang relevan adalah  dimana, dalam interpretasi Trinitarian, Yesus diidentifikasikan dengan hipotasis ilahi pra-eksisten yang disebut Logos atau Friman. Dari pandangan non-Trinitarian, terdapat pandangan yang mempertanyakan aspek pra-keberadaan pribadi, atau aspek ilahi, atau keduanya.

Doktrin tersebut direiterasikan dalam  ketika Yesus merujuk kepada kemenangan dimana ia telah ada dengan Bapa "sebelum dunia" pada amanat Perpisahan. Yohanes 17:24 juga menyebut Bapa mencintai Yesus "sebelum pembentukan dunia".
