391 The Creation and Fall of Man

391.

The Creation & Fall of Man



Disappointed by the imperfections

Of His fellow spirit companions



God created a less menacing vessel

For those who commit sin & evil



This is the human body

Also meant to be sinless & happy



But the first humans – the man & woman

Were also tempted to sin by Satan



Going against the will of God

Like fallen angels they have been bad



Yet, the Creator this time was struck with mercy

Towards these creature's frail body



Not to hell immediately, just away from Eden

To remind their descendants not to sin again!
