REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Forty -Crushing the Serpent's Head - Conclusion

 What about the Serpent and his seed? About 56 C.E. the apostle Paul wrote a long letter to the Christians in Rome.  In concluding  it, he encouraged them by saying: "For his part, the God who gives peace will crust Satan under your feet shortly."  (Romans 16:20)  This is more than superficial bruising.  Satan is to be crushed! Paul here used a Greek word, syn-tri''bo, that means to be bruise into a jellylike state, to trample down, to destroy utterly by crushing. As for the human seed of the Serpent, this is due for a real plaguing in the Lord's day, climaxing at the great tribulation in the complete crushing of Babylon the Great and political systems of the world, together with their financial and military henchmen  (Revelation, chapters 18 and 19)  Thus Jehovah brings to a climax the enmity between the two sees.  The Seed of God's woman triumphs over the earthly seed of the Serpent, and the seed is no more!
