Yesterday we learned dinosaurs and man were both created on day six of creation. So, yes, dinosaurs and people once lived together. But wouldn’t dinosaurs like T. rex have been a terror in the garden of Eden?

Genesis 1 tells us that God originally gave people and the animals the plants to eat. This means originally T. rex would’ve been vegetarian, snacking on fruits and plants. But what about those huge teeth?

Just because something has big teeth doesn’t mean it eats meat. Even today, fruit bats and grass eating monkeys have sharp teeth, but they eat fruit and grass.

It wasn’t until after sin that creatures started eating meat.
