The Perfect Creation [48-01]

When God created the world, everything was perfect. There was no sin. Adam and Eve loved each other, and they loved God. There was no sickness or death. This was the way God wanted the world to be.

Important Terms:

• God
• sin
• Adam
• Eve
• love
• death

Translation Notes:

• God created the world - That is, "God made the world out of nothing."
• perfect - That is, "exactly as it should be" to accomplish all that God intended for it.
• There was no sin - For some languages it is not possible to express "sin" as a thing, rather it is an action. In those cases this could be translated as, "No one ever sinned" or, "People did not sin" or, "Nothing evil had happened."
• There was no sickness or death - That is, "No one got sick and no one died" or, "They did not get sick or die."
