The Whole Creation Groans

Man was created to be lord of the animals and the earth.
Animals do not possess a spirit nature , so they do not possess a conscience or moral and spiritual abilities to know or love God.
Animals do have bodies and souls, so that they can remember ,love ,and hate.
When man sinned, he lost his lordship over the animals, eventually they rebelled against him, biting, devouring, and killing.

Even the Earth has an organic body, compared to that of a man.
Rocks would compare to bones, vegetation compares to hair, streams and rivers compare to blood vessels, the heated core compares to internal organs, and volcanoes compare to nostrils and mouth's.

Mankind, animals, and the earth were subjected to vanity and corruption when man sinned.
The creation and the creatures groan and travail under the curse of sin until the redemption of man's body.

All creation rises or falls with Man.
Jesus bought redemption for both man and creation.
Now all wait for deliverance and the glorification of God's Sons.

If Adam had not sinned and had remained incorruptible he would have been able walk on water as Jesus did, fire would not a burn his body, water would not drown him,cold winds would not harm.

All this will be reality at the coming glory of Christ.
When the sons of God are manifested in resurrected splendor and power.
