I am just curious why would God create a sinless world, let it fall, just so that he can restore it again with blood an guts. Doesn't sound like a great plan to me

When you start out wrong, you finish wrong. God created a sinless world and gave dominion over it to 'man'. Man failed, not God.

Since man had dominion, only a 'sinless' man could reclaim it. It's is/was the greatest plan ever - and carried out by pure love. It was either YOUR death or HIS - and you say it doesn't sound like a great plan?

The Bible makes it clear that God planted the tree and the serpent. If God is God then he did it with the divine foreknowledge of what is about to happen. Man failed, by design.

If God wanted a sinless world we would have a sinless world.

Designing a world that would fail, then wanting to destroy it, then changing his mind, then killing himself to fix it just doesn't look like an excellent plan, or that he is in charge.
