Although The Great I AM was well aware of what was about to happen, before it happened, He did not interfere. That is because of the spirit of Free Will that He, Himself, imbued them with. However, as soon as Adam ate, He set punishments in place that would affect all of His creation. One of the punishments decreed was that neither Adam nor Woman would be allowed to ever reside in The Garden of Eden again. Another was that neither would be able to eat freely. Adam, and all future men, would have to labor by the sweat of their brows to produce their sustenance. Likewise, Woman, and every female afterward, was cursed to labor with the excruciating pain of childbirth. The worst punishment was, because of Adam’s disobedience they, all future mankind, and everything that breathed, was now cursed to die, and return to their original form. Back to the ground from where they came!
After The Great I AM scathing degree, He called a meeting in Heaven around the conference table. It was during that meeting, in the presence of all the Angels, that He assigned the task of being The Archangel of Death to The Archangel SAMMAEL. His directive was to perform his duty dispassionately without consideration of race, creed, status, age, or behavior. While his Angel brothers would be permitted to interact with humanity, he was forbidden to touch or be seen by them. That is until their appointed hour. At which time, the sight of him immediately followed by his touch would separate their spirit and soul from their clay vessel. With the exception of an elect group of people, he is hated, feared, and blamed by all. They’ve even made movies that depict him to be some dark vengeful figure. One whose main purpose is to destroy them, and take their loved ones. Ministers preach to their congregations that death is not their friend, but rather an agent of Lucifer’s. It isn’t until their own earthly temples are racked with pain, and decaying, that they embrace the inevitability of death. Then they beg The Great I AM to grant them the sweet release that only the Archangel they despise can afford. Once they are snatched from the clay they all realize that they’d been lied to and deceived. The majority of them proclaim that they should have never feared him, because his touch was gentle and loving.
