Genesis 1:27-30
29Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit contains seed. They will be yours for food. 30And to every beast of the earth and every bird of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth—
everything that has the breath of life in it—I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so.…
There were no carnivores before the fall.
After the fall of mankind, everything on earth was adversely effected (including the earth itself) and became subject to corruption and violence.
Genesis 6
11Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God, and full of violence. 12And God looked upon the earth and saw that it was corrupt; for all living creatures on the earth had corrupted their ways.
The point of the flood was to end violence/corruption on earth that was going on at that time.
Genesis 6
13Then God said to Noah, “The end of all living creatures has come before Me, because through them the earth is full of violence. Now behold, I will destroy both them and the earth.
Genesis 6
19And you are to bring two of every living thing into the ark—male and female—to keep them alive with you. 20Two of every kind of bird and animal and crawling creature
will come to you to be kept alive. 21You are also to take for yourself every kind of food that is eaten and gather it as food for yourselves and for the animals.”
God sent to Noah all the land animals He wanted to survive the flood and the land dinosaurs were not among them and therefore were destroyed in the flood.
All what the Lord wanted to be destroyed in the flood, in fact were destroyed.
And so it will be again ... this time destroyed by eternal fire.
Matthew 24:37
37
As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.
but ... the good news
Revelation 21
4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away.” 5
And the One seated on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.”Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are faithful and true.
Isaiah 11
He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth
and slay the wicked with the breath of His lips.
5Righteousness will be the belt around His hips,
and faithfulness the sash around His waist.
6The wolf will live with the lamb,
and the leopard will lie down with the goat;
the calf and young lion and fatling will be together,
and a little child will lead them.
7The cow will graze with the bear,
their young will lie down together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
8The infant will play by the cobra’s den,
and the toddler will reach into the viper’s nest.
9They will neither harm nor destroy
on all My holy mountain,
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD
as the sea is full of water.
Eden will be restored/recreated as the Lord had originally created before the fall and all will be in perfect harmony and for eternity! AMEN!
