THE SEED WAR - PART 13


WBS.253

THE SEED WAR

PART 13

1 John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Yahushua Messiah is come in the flesh is not of Elohim: and this is that spirit of anti-Messiah, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Yahushua Messiah is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an anti-Messiah.

These are the last two verses where the term “Antichrist” (Anti-Messiah) is found in the Scriptures. It is interesting that we should fall upon this lesson on “Easter” Sunday.   When I awoke this morning, my wife was already awake and had checked her emails and messages.  The first thing she said to me was, “Well, the naysayers are out in full on social media, today.”  When I asked her what she meant, she said there were people making fun of the resurrection, challenging the truth of the “Bible” story, ridiculing the Christian’s connection with with the mythology of Oestra, a pagan deity. In other words, they were denying that Messiah was real, that he lived in the flesh, died and rose again.

Note in our opening verses the characteristic that marks the spirit of Anti-Messiah.  That wicked spirit does not confess that Yahushua Messiah is come in the flesh.  Let’s look at this in context.

1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of Elohim: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of Elohim: Every spirit that confesseth that Yahushua Messiah is come in the flesh is of Elohim:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Yahushua Messiah is come in the flesh is not of Elohim: and this is that spirit of anti-Messiah, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
4 Ye are of Elohim, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
6 We are of Elohim: he that knoweth Elohim heareth us; he that is not of Elohim heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

The context regarding the spirit of Anti-Messiah is that it is the motivation behind “false prophets;”  and that one tell-tale sign of a false prophet is that the spirit that motivates him/her will not confess (agree) that Yahushua Messiah has come in the flesh.

Let’s see what Messiah had to say about false prophets.

Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Messiahs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Mark 13:22 For false Messiahs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

In a nutshell, a false prophet will use his words and will show signs and wonders to deceive and seduce as many people as possible in order to make merchandise of them…to get rich off of them.  You can turn on almost any “Christian” broadcasting network on television, at any time of day or night, and see “ministers” making emotional appeals to their audience for their financial support.  They may show “miracles” that supposedly have happened through their ministries to validate their worthiness of your support.  They often will appeal to their audience’s greed by making such appeals as:

“The next 200 people who will send in $200.00 will be blessed by the Lord meeting the needs in their life, whatever that may be.”

“For a gift of only $100.00, I will send you this prayer cloth that I have carried on my own body for a week.”

“I believe that God has told me that the next ten people who will send in $10,000.00 will receive a 100-fold return on their gift.”

And so on, and so on.  The scams never end in the forms they take; and yet, people flock to these false prophets and send them their hard earned money, enriching them beyond measure; and suffering the loss of their own financial means.  No one generally ever experiences any kind of identifiable response connected to their giving; but that does not stop them from giving the next time, and the next time, ever hoping that they will hit the lottery with “God” because of their faithful support of these wolves wearing sheep’s clothing.  

These false prophets will tell you whatever they think it is that you want to hear.  They will even tell you about Yahushua Messiah coming in the flesh; then they will deny what that means as they turn your hearts to love the world with the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.  They will turn your heart to the love of money and all it represents.  The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil; and they know it.  They seek those with “itching ears” and they will scratch the itch.

What has that to do, however, with the spirit of Anti-Messiah that will not confess that Yahushua Messiah has come in the flesh?  What does that even mean?  I have heard ministers teaching on deliverance (how to cast out demons), removing this verse from the context of false prophets, explaining that you should ask a spirit if Yahushua Messiah is come in the flesh; so you can know whether or not you are dealing with a demonic spirit.  By their understanding of this verse, they believe that a demon will not be able to say that Yahushua Messiah has come in the flesh. This passage of Scripture goes well beyond verbally stating that Messiah has come in the flesh.  The spirit of Anti-Messiah KNOWS that Yahushua Messiah has come in the flesh.

Mark 1:23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Yahushua of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of Elohim.

Do you think the demon in this man was particularly well-informed over all over evil spirits?  No.  They all knew who Yahushua was.  His appearance in the flesh terrified them.  The Scripture says that Yahushua had to command them to be silent, because he did not want testimony of his identity coming from demons.  (Speaking of demons, the book of Enoch identifies the demonic spirits as the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim and Rephaim, the offspring of the Watcher angels.)  

So, what really is this issue of Yahushua Messiah coming in the flesh?  It is the seed of the woman appearing: the “head crusher” making his appearance before the “heal bruiser.”

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.

For 4,000 years, there had been a race to win the seed war by bringing forth their respective champion to undo their enemy.  The serpentine Watchers mated with human women and produced the perverted seed of the Nephilim; and they proceeded to corrupt all flesh upon the earth. The flood of Noah abated that effort; but the serpentine seed reappeared after the flood principally through the bloodline of Canaan, the son of Ham, the son of Noah.  Joshua virtually wiped out all of their tribes and nations; though some fled and went “underground” to escape annihilation.  The great dragon, the serpent, has never been able to gain the upper hand.

When the Spirit of IAUE hovered over Mary and she conceived, the Son of IAUE entered into the world. By taking on human flesh, he was able to restore the dominion of the earth to man.  He destroyed the works of the devil. He crushed the serpent’s head. He won the seed war. He rose from the dead a conquering hero, and he has been building his victorious army of disciples for 2,000 years, ready to return in the power of his kingdom.

Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Yahushua, speaking of the adversary, said he was a liar and the father of liars.  He is not going to tell the truth; because the truth is not in him.  Those who deny the viability, the legitimacy and/or the reality of the fact that Yahushua literally was born the son of IAUE, born into the earth with a body of flesh and blood, are being motivated by the spirit of Anti-Messiah. 

There are many in the world today who are actively denying that Yahushua Messiah has come in the flesh. Some are simply blinded by philosophy, some by hatred of Elohim; but some know full well that Yahushua Messiah has come in the flesh, has died in the flesh, has risen from the dead in a body of flesh and bone, and has been given all authority both in heaven and in earth.  They will deny it to their last breath because that would be to embrace their defeat.

Oh, there is a big show yet to come.  The enemy will produce his champion in the end of days; and he will deceive many who know not the truth of the Messiah having already come in the flesh and undermined this new regime that will surface; having already stripped it of its power and authority. It is working under the knowledge that their time is short; and they have only a brief period of time to “act” like they have won.  They will play that role to the fullest of their ability.  They will even think they have won…and then the Son of IAUE will appear with judgment in his mouth and a two-edged sword in his hand to execute the wrath of his Father upon all who opposed him; and the faithful disciple of Messiah will be with him to participate in this execution of the wrath of IAUE.

Psalm 149:5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.
6 Let the high praises of Elohim be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;
8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Hallelujah!

The disciple of Messiah needs to understand that the seed war is a central theme that ties the entirety of the Scriptures together.  It is an under-current, and often mainline message, that weaves throughout every book of the Scriptures.
