“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
This scripture is often used to prove the “serpent seed” argument, that satan and the fallen angels had “seed.” Matt Slick of CARM addresses this in his article “The serpent seed and the Kenites“:
“…[T]he Serpent Seed doctrine is easily refuted when we examine Gen. 4:1: “Now the man had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain, and she said, ‘I have gotten a manchild with the help of the Lord.'” We can see that the Bible clearly tells us who the Father of Cain is: Adam. The Serpent Seed idea is proven wrong.
In addition, it is more natural to attribute the term “seed” in Gen. 3:15 as a reference to the spiritual decedents of Satan, not his literal ones. We can see that being a true spiritual descendent is by faith, not by biology. Consider the following verses which speak of spiritual identification.
- “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God,” (Rom. 2:28-29).
- “For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God,” (Rom. 8:14).
- “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him in order that we may also be glorified with Him,” (Rom. 8:16-17).
- “That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are regarded as descendants,” (Rom. 9:8).
Clearly, being a descendent has a spiritual quality. Likewise, Satan’s descendants are those who identify with him in his lies. This is why Jesus said in John 8:44 to the Pharisees,
“You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.”
In addition, “seed” is also referred to as the word of God (Matt. 13:18-23; Luke 8:11; 1 Pet. 1:23) and as the spiritual life in (1 John 3:9). The whole flavor of spiritual identification with God is included in terms of being the offspring of God (Gal. 3:29; Acts 17:28) and the children of God (Rom. 8:16-17). Consider 1 John 3:9 which says, “No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.” Obviously, the Christian does not contain the literal seed of God in him. Seed here, must refer to a spiritual element of indwelling, of ideology, and of faith. That is why the Christian does not practice sin. It is against his beliefs and confession before God and man. Therefore, God’s seed abides in the Christian, but it isn’t literal seed, it is a reference to spiritual identification.”
The Fallen Angel/Human Hybrid doctrine is the newest repackaging of the racist serpent seed doctrine. In the 1800’s the Pentecostal “Perfectionism” movement was founded by Charles Parham. Parham was a Freemason, member of a lodge and also a member of the Ku Klux Klan. According to his biography written by his wife. Parham’s teachings were influenced by Freemason/futurist Edward Irving and were the furtherance and exaggeration of the teachings of Armenianist John Wesley. Among the new things that Parham taught:
• “Perfectionism” – among other things, believers were to expect divine physical healing with salvation (more on this later)
• “Power” – A second “baptism by fire” of the Holy Ghost “empowered” believers in the natural
• “Revival” – to come before the second coming of Christ
• “Experiential Christianity”
• A “Pre-Adamic race”
Parham was also Ecumenical, which should raise a red flag for anyone who has spent any time studying the New World Order, since Ecumenism is their plan to unite all religions into a one world religion. Parham intended for the movement to sweep through the entire church, and in the past 200 years it clearly has affected virtually every denomination of Christianity. John Parham taught that Cain got his wife from a “pre-Adamite race” which is ‘another race’, or the two seed theory of ‘Christian Identity’ or ‘aliens’. This of course presents the Bible as false, since it is teaching that Adam was not the first man God created.
Pentecostals of the 19th century were largely white supremacists[!] which is clearly portrayed in the writings of Parham’s wife. White supremacism is based on the “two seeds” teaching; the seed of Cain and the seed of Seth. From Parhams wife in her book The Life of Charles Parham:
“Parham’s racial views were also typical of early Pentecostals. Although his Topeka school apparently enrolled only whites, his ministry by 1905 had expanded to include both blacks and American Indians. Even so, he handled the racial issue carefully, paying attention to the prevailing attitudes of different sections of the country and probably intending racial separation as the prevailing model for local church worship. His experience at Azusa Street clearly shocked him and disturbed his racial sensitivities:
“Men and women, whites and blacks, knelt together or fell across one another; frequently, a white woman, perhaps of wealth and culture, could be seen thrown back in the arms of a big “buck nigger,” and held tightly thus as she shivered and shook in freak imitation of Pentecost. Horrible, awful shame!”
After Azusa Street, [*where many very troubling manifestation took place, that more closely resembled demon possession than a work of God], Parham’s meetings, like those of the mainstream Pentecostals, became increasingly segregated. The racial mores of American culture proved too strong for the original ideal of interracial cooperation. By 1927, Parham felt comfortable offering praise for the work of the Ku Klux Klan and “their high ideals for the betterment of mankind.” 6 (italics added)
The influence of Pentecostalism and Dispensationalism are at the root of much of the false teaching that has infiltrated the church. I know that’s a strong statement. I am not diminishing the very many good things that Dispensational and Charismatic Christians have done for the advancement of the gospel of Jesus Christ, nor am I saying that there aren’t many true followers of Jesus Christ who have been taught a Dispensationist view of eschatology or who are in Charismatic churches today. What I’m saying is that some of these doctrines have created a vulnerability to false teaching. So, before you get upset with me, please just check out the history of both of them for yourself. It’s easy to do – Just read up on the people who started the movements. Check out their backgrounds, beliefs, associations with secret societies, etc.
With those sensitivities in mind, consider Pentecostalism in light of the words of Theosophist (Satanist) Alice Bailey. In her 1957 book, The Externalization of the Hierarchy. She describes cabalist agents infiltrating the Christian Church to modify its’ message, while transforming it into a vehicle for the One World Religion.
“… the Christian church in its many branches can serve as a nucleus through which world illumination may be accomplished… the church as a teaching factor should take the great basic doctrines and (shattering the old forms in which they are expressed and held) show their true and inner spiritual significance. The prime work of the church is to teach, and teach ceaselessly, preserving the outer appearance in order to reach the many who are accustomed to church usages. Teachers must be trained; Bible knowledge must be spread; the sacraments must be mystically interpreted, and the power of the church to heal must be demonstrated.” Alice Bailey -The Externalisation of the Hierarchy
Another member of the Pentecostal movement was Freemason, white supremacist, William Branham 2. Branham taught the “serpent seed” doctrine in the Latter Rain Movement of the 1940’s. The essence of the “two seed” theory is that there are two races on earth: one godly and one satanic.
Although William Branham denied the Trinity, saying it was a demonic doctrine believed only by the whore Babylon false church – he was accepted as a true prophet by most Pentecostal and Charismatic ministries(!) He believed in numerology and taught that God had made the Great Pyramid. Many of his prophecies about future events did not come to pass and the majority of his teachings are completely opposed to the plain teaching of Scripture but he continues to be looked upon as God’s true prophet.
Let’s look at his teaching and compare it to the “Nephilim” doctrine:
“The tree in the garden has to be Jesus. All right. If the Tree Of Life is a person, then the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is a person ALSO. It can’t be otherwise. Thus the Righteous One and the Wicked One stood side by side there in the midst of the Garden of Eden. Ezekiel 28:13a “Thou (Satan) hast been in Eden, the garden of God.”
Here is where we receive the true revelation of the `Serpent’s seed.’ Here is what really happened in the Garden of Eden. The Word says that Eve was beguiled by the serpent. She was actually seduced by the serpent. It says in Genesis 3:1, “Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.” This beast was so close to a human being (and yet was pure animal) that he could reason and talk. He was an upright creature and was somewhat in between a chimpanzee and a man, but closer to a man. He was so close to being human that his seed could, and did mingle with that of the woman and cause her to conceive. When this happened, God cursed the serpent. He changed every bone in the serpent’s body so that he had to crawl like a snake.
Notice what God said to them in the garden. Genesis 3:15, “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.” If we give credit to the Word that the woman did have a Seed, then the serpent must have surely had a seed also. If the Seed of the woman was a man-child apart from the man, then the seed of the serpent will have to be in the same pattern, and that is another male must be born apart from human male instrumentality….
As the Seed of the woman was literally God reproducing Himself in human flesh, so the seed of the serpent is the literal way that Satan found he was able to open the door to himself into the human race. It was impossible for Satan (for he is only a CREATED spirit-being) to reproduce himself in the manner which God reproduced Himself, so the Genesis account tells how he produced his seed and introduced or injected himself into the human race. Also recall that Satan is called the `serpent.’ It is his seed or injection into the human race we are speaking of.
Before Adam ever had carnal knowledge of Eve, the serpent had that knowledge ahead of him. And that one born of it was Cain. Cain was of (born of, begotten of) that “Wicked One”. I John 3:12. The Holy Spirit in John could not in one place call Adam the “Wicked One” (for that is what he would be if he fathered Cain) and in another place call Adam the “Son of God” which he was by creation. Luke 3:38. Cain turned out in character like his father, a bringer of death, a murderer.” (source)
According the Branham, the “sin” in the Garden that led to the fall of mankind was not Adam and Eve’s disobedience by eating the fruit from the forbidden tree—but it was a sexual act between Satan and Eve leading to the birth of Cain. In order to qualify this, Branham twisted the story, personifying the two trees, so “eating the fruit” meant “sexual relations”.
In a tape recording by Branham, he refers to the white races are the good seed and the “negro” and mingled races are the serpent’s seed(!)
The sexual orgies of the mystery cults reenacted the serpent seed rituals that were started by Nimrod and his sister/wife Semiramas. This serpent seed teaching is an old corruption that was used in Baal worship of the Old Testament.
Many Jews interpreted the serpent seed to be the Gentiles in their Talmud. This doctrine comes from Jewish mysticism and a reinterpretation of the fall of Adam and Eve. The myth is found in Babylonian, Jewish, and Gnostic teachings. and the Jewish adoption of the sexual reinterpretation of the fall was written into the Kabbalah and the Talmud. This doctrine is actually the basis of Jewish Gnosticism and is incorporated into all branches of Judaism today. Rabbi Ginsburgh, a leading Chabad Rabbi, was recorded as saying:
“As for the goyim… Zalman’s attitude (was): “Gentile souls are of a completely different and inferior order. They are totally evil, with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.”
Destroys the Gospel
This false Serpent Seed teaching from the 1940s has again been repackaged and is being presented to the church as the new “Nephilim” teaching. The similarity between it and the “Angel/Human Hybrid” doctrine is unmistakable, and the possibilities of its’ dangerous ramifications were exemplified in WWII.
The original Serpent Seed doctrine belief was held by white supremacist groups, as well as some Christian groups and Hitler. Hitler believed in a literal, physical bloodline of Satan. This is found in his book “Mein Kampf”. Although it wasn’t called ‘Serpent Seed’, his belief was that the Jewish bloodline had descended from the line of Cain and was the bloodline of Satan. This belief of ‘Satan’s Offspring’ walking the earth is a cornerstone of the Aryan Nation and the KKK. Hitler was also a devotee of Theosophy and Helena Blavatsky, who taught that humanity could transcend by eliminating the “root race.”
The Nephilim are said to be part angel, part human and as such they have no hope of redemption. They are allegedly “damned” because, they are a corruption of man, who God man made in His own image. Shouldn’t the designation of any group of humanity as “damned” and “beyond redemption” give us pause? In today’s world of “terrorist watch lists,” “war on Islam,” it’s pretty easy to imagine the general public, as well as Christians being rallied to support the “elimination of the Nephilim!” This has much greater potential than the racism we’ve known to date and fits well with the need to raise support for the elimination of ‘undesirables’, who are ‘unfit’ for the politically correct, Ecumenical, New World Order.
