Les Feldick Bible Study

Will wild animals fear other animals or people in the restored creation?

No. In the restored creation, wildlife will no longer fear other species or people; they will be restored to the condition before Adam fell. Nothing will eat meat or kill another species, and all creatures will eat what grows naturally—grass, herbs, nuts, and berries.

Les teaches that creation itself will be delivered from the bondage of corruption and restored as it was before Adam fell. In that restored state, wildlife will have no fear of other things of their various species and no fear of man. Before Adam sinned, nothing ate meat or killed another species for its livelihood; everything ate what grew naturally—grass, herbs, nuts, berries, and so forth. So it will be when the Kingdom is set up. All creation waits for the day when Christ will rule as King of Kings, and believers will rule and reign with Him over the glorious new creation brought out from underneath the curse.
