The Heresy of the Serpent Seed Doctrine

“And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;”
– Acts 17:26 KJV

The Serpent Seed doctrine is all the rage in the last few years with many Christian authors espousing this dramatic and salacious interpretation. But is this interpretation correct and if not, what is the driving force behind the false teaching? Is there a more sinister intent and purpose underlying this ideology that will soon be revealed and explain why this heresy is fostered?

It’s very unfortunate that as more and more Christians become aware of the false teachings of the Pre-tribulation Rapture doctrine, they now seem to be replacing one sensational and heretical doctrinal interpretation with another.

Looking at the Serpent Seed doctrine, also referred to as the ‘line of Cain theory’, we see in the historical picture two races or seeds of people. This is the theme or interpretive ideology in that two opposing races or bloodlines have descended from their respective progenitors, one being Adam and his offspring and the other, the devil and his seed — thus the serpent seed exegesis.

When looking at the evil in the world and trying to identify the source, we might initially conclude that this makes sense and explains why so much evil exists. That the cause of so much wickedness in the world is simply the work or product of this race of people who are descendents of the devil through Cain’s lineage. For those who have eyes to see and ears to hear, this is the first clue to something nefarious.

But the overriding  influence for the belief in this corrupt line of the human race is based primarily on the fact that Cain murdered Abel and therefore Cain’s evil act suggest that the devil must have been Cain’s father.

This somewhat juvenile deduction is a presumptuous conclusion and though there are other Scriptural events used to support this interpretation, just because Cain was a murderer does not make him the offspring of the devil or serpent. But basically — as I’m confident you see the simplistic and even humorous logic the notion is built upon — this is the gist of it.

However, what if what appears to be a naive if not childish logistical conclusion of some seemingly meaningless, impertinent, and fringe event that happened at the dawn of creation was not so innocent and benign? That what appears to be a titillating dissection of some rather salacious and mature topic that fits the fancy of the bored really has within itself the demon seed for a purposeful yet deadly germination.

Let’s look at a number of scripture verses that this teaching is based on as well as some that refute the logic and interpretation.

The Deception
First, we have the serpent deceiving Eve with lies and encouraging her to take of the forbidden fruit. (See verses below) She disobeys God and as with human nature, wants to have Adam as an accomplice in the “crime” and have more fun being naughty with another.  And using the term ‘naughty’ is not meant to imply anything of a sexual nature. It simply means the opposite of doing good which in this case would have been obeying God and telling the devil to take a long walk on short pier with rocks in his pockets. But no, which all of us would also have done, she fell for Satan’s temptation.

This is where the “serpent seeders” begin their dogma. Somehow within the context of these verses they glean something of a sexual nature. Is there anything within these verses that suggest that eating from this tree in the garden that God told them not to eat from or even touch is more symbolic of sexual sin that just pure disobedience? That’s all God was asking; everything in the garden is yours, even the animals who Adam named, but just don’t eat of the tree of life or of the tree of knowledge of good and evil — and as a matter of fact, don’t even touch it.

The tree is called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. What does this imply? What it implies is the opposite; to remain pure, remain innocent, remain obedient and sinless. Be as a child not having the knowledge of good and evil.  But no, “we” had to question whether God’s word was true and by disobeying Him, express doubt. According to David Wilkerson, doubt, being the opposite of faith, is what grieves God the most. (Doubt — The Sin That God Hates Most by David Wilkerson)

The Shame
As we move on past the interlude with the serpent, we now have Adam and Eve having a bad aftertaste from that apple of disobedience earlier. (See verses below) Now, they have lost the covering they once had that allowed them to be free and without regard not even realizing they were unclothed (uncovered). Before, they were like two toddlers of opposite sex taking a bath together, not having a concern in the world for their own differences, let alone the ability to even recognize them. This eating of the apple had now removed the innocence in their eyes and they realized they were no longer “innocent children” but uncovered (guilty) adults.

What verse in Scripture can we find that speaks to this shame, this uncovering, this nakedness that God sees? What verse will explain that Adam and Eve’s nakedness was not a sexual nakedness but a spiritual nakedness? That from their glorious perfected creation in the image of God they had now fallen to wretchedness, sinfulness, and shamefulness and in need of a covering, even mercy no less.

“Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.” – Eze 16:8 KJV

This verse is speaking of the new covering. When God looked upon us with mercy and compassion and spread His skirt over us, His covering, yeah, even His righteousness. This was the time of love, when Christ Jesus the Holy One covered our sin, our shame, our nakedness with His skirt, with His robe and by His blood and He says this was the time of love “and thou becamest mine.”

So I hope we can make the correlation between Adam and Eve’s nakedness and the nakedness in all of us that Jesus covers with His righteousness. Maybe we need to lift our minds up on the curb and not take ‘nakedness’ so literal in view of the larger salvational picture.

The Curse
We are now brought to another verse heavily leaned on to support the ‘serpent seed’ interpretation. (See verses below) Here, God curses the serpent with the characteristics of a snake. It is very important to understand the symbolism in these verses (14-17) and not get too literal.

But before that, we need to understand what God is saying when He says, “I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed.”  Here again is another verse that is being misconstrued and used incorrectly.  We need to make sure we don’t interpret this “seed of the serpent” as meaning a genetic seed.

The easiest way to understand this is to understand who the seed of the woman is. It should be very clear to anyone that has studied the Scriptures even half-heartedly that the woman, singular, is referencing the Church or the Bride of Christ. The Bride of Christ is of course the children of God who have found grace and salvation through  Christ Jesus/Yeshua. By default, this only leaves one group left to be the seed of the serpent, this being the unbelievers who reject God and the free gift of Salvation by grace through faith in Jesus.

But the simple fact of the matter is, that all of us were at one time the seed of the serpent. Until we believed in Jesus Christ, repented of our sins, Baptized in water, made Jesus our Lord, and born of the Spirit, we were not the seed of the Woman but the seed of the serpent.

Are we talking bloodlines? Only in the spiritual sense.

Consider this comment I made on a Facebook posting.

•—• BLOODLINES •—•
Of the 2, which are U?

Nicodemus ask Jesus, “What must we do to be saved.” Jesus answered, “You must be born again.”

We hear Illuminati bloodlines, serpent seed theory, reptilian race, etc, etc.

If we have not been born again, we still have the flesh of the Illuminati, the serpent’s blood, and the scales of the reptile.

We are either the children of God or the children of the devil. These are the only two bloodlines.

But if we are a child of the devil and in his bloodline so to speak, what happens to us when we are ‘born again?’ Does our blood magically or mysteriously change from a reptilian, cold-blooded nature to the Adamic, warm-blooded nature? Does our DNA change? OF COURSE NOT!

What changes? Our hearts change. We then become indwelt with the Holy Spirit and have become a new creature in God’s spiritual kingdom. But we still have the old flesh but are not a slave to it. The serpent is no longer our father, our progenitor, our master. We have a new Father and a new Master.

As for the seed of the serpent, that is a different story. In one aspect, the snake is different from most other creatures on earth. In order for it to feed, it has to strike. In order for it to strike, it has to lie in wait in cover and secrecy. But what does it strike with? It has to strike with its mouth. And so we begin to see in the world those who have these characteristics that were ascribed to the serpent and his seed, his spiritual offspring.

With lying tongues, venomous words, strangulating methods, and shedding skins, they crawl in amongst us even through the narrowest openings. They use deception and cover to stalk their prey.

Who are their prey? The Woman whose heel the serpent has been “commissioned” to strike as She (we) walk through this snake-infested world. And as we walk, our presence is always a threat to bruise the heads of serpent’s seed, his spiritual children.

The children of the devil, the serpent seed by default because of lack of rebirth, will do what their father does just as Jesus declared to the Pharisees in the temple referenced in the Book of John, chapter 8. As they proclaimed their heritage in Abraham, Jesus, seeing that they wanted to kill Him, told them who their true father was.

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” – Jhn 8:44 KJV

Within 3 verses earlier in this chapter, Jesus gives us a simple example of genetics or bloodline having nothing to do with who our true or spiritual father is. Jesus acknowledges their Abrahamic bloodlne and then in the same breath tells them they are NOT the children of Abraham.

“37 I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. … 39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.” – Jhn 8:37, 39 KJV

It just can’t be any clearer than this and what we see in the preceding verses. Those who obey God are the seed of the Woman and those who obey the devil are the seed of the serpent. But it has nothing to do with genetics, blood type, ancestry, nationality, geography, or religion. This is the analogy God was making between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent. It is not a literal interpretation but a spiritual one.

Adam and Eve Conceive
But there is more to the ‘serpent seed’ doctrine that needs to be discussed. Further on in the Scriptures we find the history of the beginning of the family. Where Adam and Eve conceive and give birth first to their son Cain and then afterward, Abel. (See verses below)

Here, it is very clear that Adam knew Eve and she conceived and the term ‘again’ with Abel implies a simple repetition. To construe this in any way other than Adam and Eve having sexual union with each other first producing Cain and then again producing Abel is not only ridiculously reckless, it smacks of an ulterior motive.

It’s just not reasonable to take something so obviously clear and try to make it mean something else unless there is a motive or purpose for doing so.

Cain Kills Abel
Cain’s jealousy of his brother Abel’s recognition by the Lord provoked him to kill Abel. This is a theme repeated throughout Scripture and in reiteration to the beginning point and basis for the ‘serpent seed’ doctrine, Cain’s wickedness is no reason to suggest that the serpent was Cain’s father. (See verses below)

Cain did receive a curse from God for killing his brother but according to the Scriptures, he went on to take wives and have children. There is a separation from the Lord though but God even protected Cain from death by placing a mark of some sort upon him.

But in all of these Scriptures it seems the only verse that even hints of there being a race or type of bloodline not 100% human is when God cursed the serpent seed. But this has already been clearly extrapolated to be symbolic of the two types of children and the two fathers. One is the children of the Most High God of Abraham and the other is the children of the devil.

Dangerous Doctrine
What may all of this mean? If this doctrine is so obviously incorrect, why does it seem to have a growing number of supporters and subscribers? The reason may be related to what I pointed out earlier in that the world is beginning to label many individuals and groups with the ‘reptilian’ moniker. With so much wickedness in the world, especially in high places, I think this false doctrine will continue to develop as people look for a reason for so many ills and who might be responsible.

What I see developing is a self-righteous, kind of Aryan Pharisee rising up in anger against the weaker classes who’ve been deliberately dumbed down and mind controlled to the point they have walked right into the slaughter holding pin. And sure, we’ve been disengaged from the efforts of preservation but hey, who knew any better until a few years ago.

Now that some of us are awake, it’s not time to turn around and blame those who are still asleep. But this is what I see happening. The Pharisees will begin labeling the common folk as serpent seed just as they do already with the elite cartel and global kingpins. And this is perfectly fine with the global elite as they begin the culling of humanity.

As the Serpent Seed roundup begins and the FEMA trains begin to roll, the self-righteous, “better-than-thou” prognosticators will be quite supportive of their ‘lesser’ brethren being hauled off to the extermination camps. Less Serpent Seed scumbags to deal with they will say as long as the train doesn’t stop at their station.

But this is the underlying motive for this damnable doctrine. It’s about giving some earthly institution the right and power to tag someone as corrupt. And not only corrupt but wicked. And not only wicked but even the seed of the serpent, the offspring of Satan himself. It is reverse Aryanism. “We can’t get away with creating the Aryan, white-supremacy nation but we can get away with destroying the low-life, unrefined ne’er-do-wells that Henry Kissinger calls useless eaters and Barrack Obama calls bitter clingers.”

And who are these that will do this? At the top of the list will be those pushing this Serpent Seed doctrine. Yes, this means a large number of Christian and conservative, alternative news and radio commentators that make the circuit espousing the Serpent Seed doctrine.

You might say, “Do you understand what you are saying?” And I would answer, “Yes, and I hope that I’m wrong and called a heretic for suggesting this.” But it has now been said and it creates a problem for them because they “can’t have some hillbilly hoosier bloggin something that in a way looks like prophecy, especially if we’ve got that written just like he said on page 62 of our playbook.”

So they now have the choice of scrapping that page or authenticating someone they had listed fairly close to the top on the Serpent Seed shopping list. What do they do now, dang it!

But all of this is really no great secret. Jesus told us this would happen. Time and again He told us this was going to happen. He said that if they call the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call the servants. And He said, they will call evil good, and good, evil. He said we would be hated of all men, even despised.

And He said this.

“1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. 2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. 3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. 4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.” – Jhn 16:1-4 KJV

Why will they think that they are doing God a service?

Because they think they are killing the Serpent Seed but in truth, as Jesus said, they will kill you.

“Because they have not known the Father, nor Me.”

The Serpent Deceives Eve

And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. 6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. 8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. 9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper? 10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground. 11 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand; 12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth. 13 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear. 14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me. 15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him. 16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.” – Gen 4:3-16 KJV (back to article)
