are tornados, tsunamis, earth quakes and other natural disasters a result of sin?

Question

were there natural disasters in eden before the fall of man?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

No they are not a result of sin. Imperfection of the human body is the result of sin. You answered your own question by using the term "natural disasters".The movement of the earth, atmospheric pressures, pollution from man and natural cycles all contribute to the storms etc. of the disasters that wreak havoc on humans that happen to be living in those areas. We cannot control them at this point. However, the day will come when God's Kingdom will control the elements of nature when the earth will be restored back to a paradise. Then you will never see again such devastation to mankind again.

Answer 3

They are not a direct punishment from God unto the people they hit. However some may thinkt that since the fall of man, the world and all its inhabitants have been on a steady swirl down the proverbial bowl.

Therein the environment worsens due to the dying world, which indirectly leads to the intensification of storms, earthquakes, etc.

No natural disasters before, because it was perfect. It was made imperfect by the entering in of sin.

Answer 4

Yes there was all this before the fall of man. When Adam and Eve sinned they were caste out into the world that God created. This world had these disasters in them. Isa. 45:7 also says that God created such things.

God created the world with both CHAOS and ORDER.

Answer 5

In the beginning God completely sustained His creation without blemish. That’s why it was perfect. He held every atom together in a perfect state. He kept the planets in their orbits. He kept animals from tripping and breaking their necks. He did not allow people to suffer and die.
Deuteronomy 8:4 gives us a little glimpse of how things might have been in the original creation. “Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.” God is omnipotent and perfectly capable of sustaining and protecting his creation.
When Adam sinned, however, the Lord cursed the universe. In essence there was a change and along with that change God seemingly took away a little bit of his sustaining power and allowed things like suffering and death into His creation. Now He permits bad things to happen—and this is a reminder that sin has consequences and that the world needs a Savior. Romans 8:22 says, “For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.”

God took pleasure in all of His creation ("http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?passage=revelation+4:11&version=NKJV"), but He loved people most of all. He allowed the created universe to deteriorate so we would see the consequences of our sin. If we did not see the consequences of our sin, we would never see that we need salvation from our sin, and we would never accept His offer of mercy for our sin. Most people easily recognize that there is a problem in the world. This can be used to show them that there is one who has overcome this problem of death and suffering—Jesus Christ.
