Day 15 – Jesus is the Seed of the Woman, of Abraham; Lust is the Seed of Satan

When you lust, you surrender to a lineage still within you that has already been crucified with Christ.

Genesis 1:27 – ²⁷ So, God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

Genesis 3:15 - ¹⁵ I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.”

The true humanity of Christ is essential because Adam, a true human, caused the Fall of all mankind into sin. Only mankind is God’s image-bearers—male and female—not angels or animals. It was a man who led us into sin, and so it must be a Man who redeems us out of it.

In Genesis 3:15, God tells the serpent that He will put enmity between his seed and the woman’s Seed. The serpent will bruise His heel, but the woman’s Seed will crush his head. Jesus is that promised Seed. And what is a seed of a woman? By the order of creation, it is her offspring—a true human being. The coming Messiah had to be truly Man.
