Does an individual on this earth now have choice or agency as to whether he or she will die a physical death? No. Does that mean we are predestined to die? That depends on your definition of predestination. In the pre-earthly existence, we had agency or freedom of choice as to whether or not we would come upon this physical earth and take upon ourselves mortal bodies; however, we “used up” that agency in the pre-earthly existence. Thus, now we must die. Those people who do not believe in (or understand) our pre-earthly existence would probably say we are predestined to die. But the fact is that at one time we had agency in whether or not we would die.
