The Seed Of The Serpent

“and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.”(Genesis‬ ‭3‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

One of the appellatives of the antiChrist is the Seed Of The Serpent. Anyone who is against the true Christ is antichrist. Therefore, there are many antichrists.

“Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”(1 John‬ ‭2‬:‭18‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

The Seed Of The Serpent will bruise the heel of The Seed Of The Woman. The Seed Of The Woman is Jesus The Christ. 

“but when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.”(Gal.4‬:‭4‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.”(Rev.12:1-6).

The ultimate antiChrist will not kill Christ in the literal sense: Christ having conquered death will die no more.  The ultimate antiChrist was not contemporaneous with Jesus when He was in this mortal flesh of ours. Those who killed Christ are obviously antichrist. But the ultimate antiChrist will kill Christians. Those who persecute Christians persecute Christ. The ultimate antiChrist will make war with the saints and overcome them.

“And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.”(Rev.13‬:‭7‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

Anyone who kills Christians also kills Christ. In that case, the ultimate antiChrist though not contemporaneous with Jesus when He was in His mortal flesh is Christ killer. When Saul of Tarsus encountered the risen Lord Jesus The Christ on the way to Damascus, He accused Saul of persecuting Him. But Saul did not kill Jesus: he probably never met Jesus one-on-one when he was in His mortal flesh. Paul made no claims to having met Jesus in the flesh. The ministry of Jesus lasted only a mere three years. It’s like Paul didn’t visit Palestine in those three years.

“and he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?”(Acts‬ ‭9‬:‭4‬ ‭KJV‬‬). 

But Saul persecuted Christians. He confessed he was a persecutor of and injurious to the Church.

“who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.”(1 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

He was in favor of the stoning of the first Christian martyr Stephen. He not only kept the garments of those who stoned  Stephen to death but voted in favor of it.

“Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord, and cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet, whose name was Saul.”(Acts‬ ‭7‬:‭57‬-‭58‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

“Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.”(Acts‬ ‭26‬:‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

If Saul persecuted Christ by persecuting Christians, the antiChrist is also Christ killer by virtue of the fact the he will kill Christians. As a matter of fact, he will kill more Christians than any other personality in history.

“I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;”(Daniel‬ ‭7‬:‭21‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

“And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.”(Daniel‬ ‭7‬:‭25‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

Among satanists, the antiChrist is referred to as The Son Of Satan. They say “The Son Of Satan is coming.” The coming of the antiChrist is after the working of the power of satan. 

“For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”(‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬:‭7‬-‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

The antiChrist is indeed The Seed Of Satan, and he will bruise the heel of The Christ by killing Christians. Indeed, he will be the ultimate persecutor and killer of the saints of The Most High.
