I guess everybody has a different version... Mine is consisted of the religious and literal texts I read:
God made Adam of His image from clay and galvanised him with a blew. Adam felt lonely and asked God for a mate, so God took one of his ribs and formed Eve out of it.
Satan, the angel Lucifer, is one of the most powerful angels, who, however, unlike Gabriel & Co., did not praise God's creation. Partly because he was jealous of humans, partly because his nature is sceptic, Lucifer felt that the universe is not worthy to praise.

God created Adam from the dust of the earth and then He breathed life into him. Satan is a fallen angel who tried to make himself equal with God, now he defies God and his creation. Satan caused the fall of mankind. The purpose of all this, so that the stage is set for the coming of a Saviour who will redeem mankind from their sins. Other than that, there wouldn't be much purpose in it all. Good question.

If the simplest form of life. A one-celled amoeba, can divide itself
and create two amoebas. Surely the Highest form of Life
can give a little of what it is and create other life.
It is said what we understand as God grew in awareness, and
as it did it flowed over into another dimension, and that flowing
became another dimension, and so on.
As this happened, different kinds of life came into being. The
highest having god-like qualities and abilities. And slowly
becoming types of life that still had god-like abilities, but lost the qualities, and became prideful, and controlling.
Evil is a force in Creation. It breaks down unused spiritual energy
for recycling, so Creation can use it again in a positive way.
But a spirit has free will. And can either take control of itself,
and become part of the Creative aspect of things. Our lose
control, and slowly perish in the destructive aspect.

God created Adam from the earth and breathed life into him. He did this to share his love. This is not directly stated in the beginning, but it is implied throughout the entire bible.
Satan is a fallen angel that fell because of his pride toward God. He wanted to be as high as god, so God punished him. Satan has been allowed to test man's faithfulness, but he will soon be defeated, and sent to hell forever.
God wished to extablish a kingdom on earth, to eventually have an earthly version of what was in heaven. This way he could expand his kingdom, and share this kingdom with his creation, man. When Jesus returns, this kingdom will be finally established.

How God created Adam was out of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life.
Satan exists because God created him...Satan was good but his pride made him turn bad....He deceived 1/3 of God's children into following him.
God judged and sentenced Satan to death for his evil...(in the first earth age)
God did not want to destroy His children, so He created this earth age (flesh) for His children to show Him their love for Him...We have free will to choose to love God or not.
Those who love God and obey Him as written in His word will receive the free gift of Life eternal !
Those who reject God's "Way" will pay the wages of sin...Death!

God created man and woman . Already the satan was there. It was an jealous angel who thought superior that God and was pished down from the heaven. It was waiting for a chance and deceived Adam and Eve. And after many long years God destroyed the world except Nova and his family. After Nova"s sons began to live in the world due to the weather and food they took the human races formed(mangolians, negroes and white people ect.)The genes are formed due to the weather and food .( This is for a friend who asked how the human races fromed) and any way read a Bible.

This story is in the Bible only if Adam and Eve were the first humans on earth where did the Mongoloids, the Negroes and all the other races come from. There is no SATAN to defy GOD. This is also a Biblical untruth

God created man from dust and water, and gave him a soul and the ability to reason and feel.
God created Satan from fire free of smoke.
Satan then became an enemy of Man, forever tempting man to turn away from God, towards sin.
In this way, God can determine which of mankind will follow His guidance, and deserve paradise, and separate them from those who follow Satan and reject faith, and deserve hell.
Life on earth, therefore, is a time for all of us to be tested on the extent to which we submit to the will of God.

God created Adam out of thee dust or dirt of the ground and then beathed the breath of life into his nostrils. To God's knowledge in the Bible there is only one Satan and he was created by God as an arc angel to be over praise and worship in heaven. But Satan let pride destroy himself by trying to take over heaven and placing himself above God on high. God lets Satan exist to give us a free will choice between Himself and His righteousness and the devil and his unrighteousness. God is all about being balanced, even between right and wrong. that is because He is a just God, a fair God that gave us freedom to choose the lake of fire with the devil and eternal torment or life eternal with Him in heaven.
