Did the Animals Kingdom affected by Adam's sin? Did God make mistake



“The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. So the Lord said, ‘I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them’” (Genesis 6:5-7).


Q: Did the Animals Kingdom affected by Adam's sin?

A: In Gen 6:5-7, God said He will wipe from the face of the earth the human race, with the animals,birds and creatures move along the ground. Here we see that both human and animals belong to the earth, they are not separable. When God does it to the human race, God does it to animal kingdom as well.

So, when Adam sin, the earth was cursed, that means everything existed on earth was cursed.

Gen 3:17

17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

Isaiah 24:5-6

The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, brokenthe everlasting covenant.
Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.




Q: Did God make mistake when He admitted that He has regretted making human?

“Everything they thought or imagined was consistently and totally evil” (Genesis 6:5)

A: When God created everything, God said "It is very good". After the fall, Everything become consistently and totally evil.

This is the result of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil.

Before the fall, there is only the knowledge of good. God praised His own creation, it was very good. Eve saw that the fruit are good for food

"When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye," (Gen 3:6)

"When the angels sinned, God did not spare them, but consigned them to the pit of hell to be kept for the judgment" (2 Peter 2:4)

There were fallen angels like Lucifer and his host of fallen angels are evil. So there were evil before the creation.

Disobedience is the mother of evil. Satan and his host of angels were disobedient. Adam and Eve were disobedient to God.

God created all things to be good. But God would not want to control the beings, whether they choose to be obedient or not.
