It was ment to be good.

Genesis 1 and 1 takes us back to a time that no scientist or mathematician or astrologer can pinpoint,
Who ever you ask, they will have a different “guesstamation” of the initial sequence of events of this cosmic formation,
They all have a varied theory of time, origin or chaotic events.....Big Bang…No Bang....several mass collisions ....fiery heat ups and cool downs....single cell organisms......fish walking onto the dry ground and breathing.....monkeys evolving into mankind and so on and on.....
It sounds a little too complicated and unknowing.....and they always cover their ignorance of the situation with the theory that it took millions and millions of years to evolve........
Of course.....any thing can happen in a million years....right?
But there is a great difference in man’s theory and how the Bible states God’s creation was.
a. Number one, in man’s theory, every thing originated in an inferior state..................
b. On the other hand the Bible states that God created every thing unique and complete in it’s own form and likeness and grouping. The herbs, trees, plants etc. (and notice they are all the right colors and shapes)
Birds after their kind, beasts after their own kind, fowl after their own kind and so forth. And God saw it and said it was good.
And finally God creates man....after His own image and likeness......Now that’s good....because man’s theory has men originating from some single cell glob.....into an aquatic animal then something that crawls up on land and finally after as you guessed Millions of years there’s and ape creature and then another Million years a man-like creature and Millions of years comes modern man.
I like God’s version.....He initially created me as He wanted me… as he was in fleshly being…creativity....wisdom....He gave man dominion over all the earth and to top it all off …Man could live forever...
I like God’s plan because He made me as he wanted from the start and did not have to have trail and error periods to perfect me.
What scares me about man’s hypothesis is that if he was correct in his guessing, then at some point I might revert back to the monkey or even the one celled glob.....
That’s why God, when He examined His own work, He said it was good.
Gen 1:10  And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 
Gen 1:12  And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 
Gen 1:18  And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 
Gen 1:21  And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 
Gen 1:25  And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 
And God created man Gen 1:31  And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. 
In man’s version it just happened to turn into a fish, a whale , an octopus. It just happened to turn into an ape and it just happened to turn into a mankind and it just happened to turn into modern man.
Scientists gives us seven stages of man from the Hominidae the ape like to the present day Homo Sapiens.
But what God meant for me, He did it in the beginning. No prototypes , no test models, no pile of rejected man into a dump pile.
As you well know thing that ruined this man was the appearance and of sin which came to man by way of the cast out Serpent Lucifer.
He entered the garden and enticed man to disobey God’s command of the garden fruit.
Now even though man was created in perfection he was not made corrupt through sin.
Now began the quest for us to get back to the original state with God that He initiated at our creation.
This is why I’m so glad God created me as the Bible states and not as man’s hypothesis.
Because what I want to return to is what God said was Good and very Good.
Even though I’ve sinned and disobeyed the word of God if he created me then He can get me back to Good
If man’s theory was correct and I sinned the best I could return to is the Hominidae the ape like creature of the glob or even revert back to the single cell organism and start the Million years all over again.
But God made me good from the beginning and He prepared my redemption even before I fell in the garden.
God says I’ll get you back to good,
Even in Israel’s sin, God spoke to Israel and told them I know you have sinned but I will get you back to good. Jehovah God sends Jeremiah the prophet to the elders of Judea in Babylon to tell them I will return you to good.
Jer 29:10  For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. 
Jer 29:11  For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 
Jer 29:12  Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 
Jer 29:13  And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
