Rom 8:19For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21thath the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.

22We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.

Point: When Adam sinned, because he was the god of this world and all things were subjected to him, all of creation (animals inclusive) also fell.

On the new earth yes.

There will be no more earthquakes, death e.t.c

When the saints would have gotten their redeemed body.

23And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. 24For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? 25But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

In an attempt to clear you of your ignorance.

Why do animals die? Because Adam sinned.

Why do we have earthquakes? Because Adam sinned.

Why do we have diseases because Adam sinned.

Why do humans die because Adam sinned.

When will all this stop? In the new earth.

Why will all this stop? Because Jesus died and gave salvation to man. As many as received that salvation will one day receive their new bodies and reign in the new earth?

Will there be earthquakes in the new earth? No

Will the animals there die? No

Will humans there die? No.

What will man eat then if animals don't die? Did Adam and Eve eat animals in the garden?

Why will all this stop? Because then the curse has been fully reversed and then all have been restored back to former glory and death forever ceased. The glorious liberty of the children of God.

Looooool!

She had to run away from the questions.


The answer lay within her reach, but to see she could not, but rather chose the way of the blind. For the darkness that lay before her took the form of beauty.

Beauty she said.

But oh! had she known, for without was the path of illumination.

Strangers from a distance observed and wisdom was given to them......."_ That The blind are not those who do not see, but those who wish not to see."

And you are told that the curse is death , right? Infact , Gen 3:14 only mentions the beast of the field .

This begs the question: what about the birds of the sky and the fishes of the sea , why do they also die ?

It mentions beast of the field because the serpent was a beast of the field and not of the air or the sea.

Simple!.

In verse 19, God's curse to Adam was he would return to dust. Well, why did Eve also return to dust?

The answer is in itself.

First question: Didn't you get? God was speaking to the serpent, a field creature. It's curse was compared to other field creature like him. That doesn't mean the Air and sea creatures were not cursed.

Secondly: Consequence of death of the spirit not flesh. From eating the fruit. (Death:Separation from the life and glory of God).

Physical death was just a byproduct. As was the ground yielding thorns.

Flawed personal opinion, the scripture said they were BLESSED not cursed ( Gen 1: 22)

Thats a result of what happen during the flood when the springs of the vast watery deep burst open ( Gen 7:11 , 2pet 3:5,6) not that God cursed the work of his own hands .


And atmospheric disasters.

Greenhouse gases released by man caused this ! Rather than take care of the earth as commanded by God , man is keen on destroying it and its natural resources. So none of this involve God or any curse .

when God create the animals he saw that its good , infact evidence reveal that he care so much for his animal creations , so I dont know where people got the notion that all animals are cursed for a sin they know nothing about ! WHY DO ANIMALS DIE ? the truth is that animals are programmed to act on instinct and they are not created to live forever , " unreasoning ANIMALS , [size=25] born naturally to be caught and destroyed " [/size] 2 Pet 2:12 can you see ? They are born NATURALLY to be caught , that is killed by humans for food or clothing ; and if not killed , they will eventually be destroyed , that is their lifetime will end . Thats the only 2 options for animals

In fact let me help you more with your explanation.

Gen 4: Cain brings an offering up to the Lord from the fruit of the ground and God rejects it because He had caused the ground.

Abel brings a sheep and God respects it.

Now, according to the topic: why do animals die if they didn't eat the fruit.

Firstly, we know diseases didn't occur until after man's sin. Now animals today die naturally because of diseases. Well, did they eat of the fruit? Why are they partaking in diseases?

Secondly, Animals yes could be killed by man as one was even killed by God to provide clothing.

The same way Adam could also strangle Eve or stab her with a knife and then she would die. Or bleed to death.

But He couldn't do that because even though that was possible he had not yet known the knowledge of evil.

Or before the fall, would have man's flesh be impenetrable from a knife attack?

Point: Animals can also die of diseases naturally because of Man's sin. Or you want to tell me they could have died of diseases there in the garden.

If you do so, bring forth your strong reasons.
