Why there is suffering in this life?

When is the first indication of any death in the Bible. Not until after the fall of Adam and Eve when God made an animal skin covering for Adam and Eve.

Genesis 3:21

 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.

There is no indication of death before sin in the Bible, the Bible is opposite of evolution. But what about plants being used as food? What were Adam and Eve eating plants. Aren't plants alive? Before I answer this question, I need examine the Bible. The Bible explains that man has the breath of life.



Genesis 2:7Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

 

The animals also have the breath of life but not made in the image of God.

 

Genesis 7:21-22

 

21 Every living thing that moved on land perished—birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. 22 Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.

Human and animals have the breath of life, but plants are never given the breath of life. There is verse in the Bible that declares that there is any indication of a plant dying, Plants always wither and fade but do not die as humans and animals die.

 

Isaiah 40:8

 The grass withers and the flowers fall,
    but the word of our God endures forever.”

 

Biologically plants have life because they have a cell  structure, but Bible don't teach the plants have the breath of life.


Was there any death before sin? Not according to the Bible. This makes evolution and the Bible incompatible. Is it possible to combine the Bible and evolution? Did God use evolution as part of His creative process? No! No according to the process for creation. No! Not according to the orders of events. No! Not according to the cause of death. Death equals the sin of mankind.
