Serpent seed doctrine.

[FireDragon76]

I've never heard of the serpent seed doctrine. It sounds bizarre.

The Hebrew words used were very straightforward: tree, serpent, eat, field. There is no reason to change the story, especially in light of what was pointed out above, symbolism not used when referring to Adam.

God banished them from paradise living, but they still lived. They bore children, enjoyed their families, ate fruit, passed along the stories, communed with God... they just endured a more work-intensive, painful existence.

Isaiah 61:3 is just one example where the Bible uses 'tree' for people, it's figurative. Such as family tree.

It doesn't change the story, it's just looked at in a different light. If you think snakes talked back then then ok; take it word for word and add no symbology to it.

The doctrine is heretical, racist and those who hold it have nothing of Christ in them.

I would be interested in hearing the people who promote it, explain what it is they believe and why, so a conversation on ethics and morality has substance to it. It seems online there are very diverse versions that come under the name, and we can just offer gut reactions without a solid definition.

Just because you're ignorant doesn't mean we don't live for Christ and doesnt mean we are racist.

Please explain what i am ignorant of?

That the doctrine is heretical and racist is pretty much beyond dispute. And I stand by my statement that anyone holding it has nothing of Christ in them.

Your ignorant to the doctrine itself, and your ignorant to the word of God for judging people.

There is NOTHING racist about it, NOTHING, only the stupid idiots who don't understand it call it racist because they say blacks come from Cain, which is NEVER been in the Bible. It was a myth created by racist themselves to discredit the Bible itself.

Everyone knows all races were created on the 6th day, and they were good in the eyes of God.

You're ignorant and pompous, but you have no idea how this works.

My apologies. In half. You are equally in error as the vast majority of those who loudly proclaim the doctrine claim that the progeny of the mating of Eve and the Serpent is the black race. It is not those calling it racist that say the blacks came from this, it is those proclaiming the doctrine.

I have a couple questions.

1) How many races were created on the 6th day?

2) I'm white, is it okay for me to marry and have children with a black woman?

3) What are "races"?
