I based my question from these verses from NKJV Bible:

1 John 3:9
Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

Genesis 3:15
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.”

The only accurate translation into english is the KJV. All other versions come from the Alexandrian manuscripts which were corrupted in Egypt by the 70 of the San Hedren that fled Jerusalem. This is why it is called the Septuegent, meaning of the seventy, and was written in classical greek which is different from the common greek. The true manuscripts came from Antioch where they were first called Christians. That being said, the serpent seed doctrine has had my curiosity peaked for many years and recently the Lord resolved it for me. The devil does corrupt certain bloodlines to ensure future hosts for the devils, however he did not have a physical bloodline on the earth. In illuminatti bloodlines and other generational witch bloodlines, ritual satanic abuse is present with rituals being done to insure the possession of the children in the womb. Part of the reason for this is to ensure the curse of sin in passed down to the children and that even though the people die, the devils want to remain and accumilate strongholds in certain bloodlines. This is the big SECRET of SECRET SOCIETY. They worship Lucifer. There are examples that the countenance of people changed as soon as deliverance from devils occurred. The giants or nephilim, where most likely a genetic mutation that happened as a result of a concentration of occult power in specific bloodlines. The sins of the fathers were passed to the son. Hebrews 1:5 shows that Jesus Christ was called a son and the angels were not, we are sons also because we who are called are in Jesus Christ. The promise was to Abraham and his SEED, Jesus Christ, not the entire race of Jews. Seed singular. So the sons of God who came into the daughters of men were in fact corrupt men whose genetic seed had been corrupted due to occult practices and witchcraft. Cursed by God.

God's seed is Christ
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:14 14The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

The Serpent Seed?
In Genesis when he says "And between your seed and her seed" I feel he is speaking more on generations between women and the serpent. Is Satan/fallen angel/ Antichrist/adversary/ great dragon all of the same. He has no seed just the same old Satan who wants to be like God.

"For you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable seed, through the living and abiding Word of God" (I Peter 1:23)
The seed is the nature of Christ received by faith through the Word of God. As it says "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation; the old (nature) has passed away, behold the new has come" (II Corinthians 5:17)
"Anyone who does not have the spirit of Christ does not belong to Him" (Romans 8:9)

The seed of the serpent is the nature inherited by the fallen descendants of Adam. It is the nature of a rebel.
"You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your fathers desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks the lie he speaks from himself, because he is a liar and the father of lies" (John 8:44)
"And you He made alive, when you were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air (Satan), the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience. Among these we all once lived, in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of the body and the mind, and SO WE WERE BY NATURE children of wrath, like the rest of mankind" (Ephesians 2:1-3)

The serpent has no seed. Just in Hollywood movies.

Gen. 3:15 - we see from the very beginning that God gives Mary a unique role in salvation history. God says "I will put enmity between you and the woman, between your seed and her seed." This refers to Jesus (the "emnity") and Mary (the "woman"). The phrase "her seed" (spermatos) is not seen elsewhere in Scripture.

Gen 3:15 / Rev. 12:1 - the Scriptures begin and end with the woman battling satan. This points to the power of the woman with the seed and teaches us that Jesus and Mary are the new Adam and the new Eve.

John 2:4, 19:26 - Jesus calls Mary "woman" as she is called in Gen. 3:15. Just as Eve was the mother of the old creation, Mary is the mother of the new creation. This woman's seed will crush the serpent's skull.

In most editions of the Douay-Rheims Bible, Genesis 3:15, in which God is addressing the serpent, reads like this:

"I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel."

In the New American Bible, as in all other modern Bibles, it reads like this:

"I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; He will strike at your head, while you strike at his heel."

The essential difference between these two renderings -- or at least the one people always ask about -- concerning who will crush the serpent's head and who the serpent is trying to strike. The Douay-Rheims uses feminine pronouns -- she and her -- implying that the woman is the person being spoken of in this part of the verse. All modern translations use masculine pronouns -- he and his -- implying that the seed of the woman is the of that part of the verse.

The reason for the difference in the renderings is a manuscript difference. Modern translations follow what the original Hebrew of the passage says. The Douay-Rheims, however, is following a manuscript variant found in many early Fathers and some editions of the Vulgate (but not the original; Jerome followed the Hebrew text in his edition of the Vulgate). The variant probably originated as a copyist error when a scribe failed to take note that the subject of the verse had shifted from the woman to the seed of the woman.

People notice this variant today because the expression found in the Douay-Rheims has been the basis of some popular Catholic art, showing a serene Mary standing over a crushed serpent.

This is because Christians have recognized (all the way back to the first century) that the woman and her seed mentioned in Genesis 3:15 do not simply stand for Eve and one of her righteous sons (either Abel or Seth). They prophetically foreshadow Mary and Jesus. Thus, just as the first half of the verse, speaking of the enmity between the serpent and the woman, has been applied to Mary, the second half, speaking of the head crushing and heel striking, has also been applied to Mary due to the manuscript variant, though it properly applies to Jesus, given the original Hebrew.

This does not mean that the idea cannot be validly applied to Mary as well. Through her cooperation in the incarnation of Christ, so that the Son of God (who, from the cross, directly crushed the head of the serpent) became her seed, Mary did crush the head of the serpent. In the same way, the serpent struck at Christ on the cross, and indirectly struck at Mary's heart as well, who had to witness the death of her own Son (cf. John 19:25-27). As the holy priest Simeon had told her years before:

"Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is spoken against -- and a sword will pierce through your own soul also -- that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed" (Luke 2:34b-35).

Thus Jesus crushed the serpent directly and was directly struck by the serpent; Mary, through her cooperation in the incarnation and her witnessing the sufferings and death of her Son, indirectly crushed the serpent and was indirectly struck by the serpent.

This has long been recognized by Catholics. The footnotes provided a couple of hundred years ago by Bishop Challoner in his revision of the Douay state, "The sense [of these two readings] is the same: for it is by her seed, Jesus Christ, that the woman crushes the serpent's head."

In the first verse, it is probably referring to Christ, being the son of God and having God's characteristics and qualities, etc. He was perfect because he, the offspring or seed of God, was also a God.

In the second verse referring to Eve, "seed" means offspring or children or descendants.

There is no truth in that, there are people who do not understand the reason Jesus told this parable. it was to illastight that not all the world will be saved. The part not mentioned was the part where the enemy CAME AND SOWED the weeds, meaning, in my understanding, that there will be some that will be corrupted at a very early stage in life, and who are "sowed" only to try to corrupt the wheat, and make it harder for the "wheat" to trust God. The original sin was doubt, adam and eve started to doubt God's words or should I say doubt the meaning of His words, thus the enemy "sowed" doubt. i say that the original sin was doubt, because most of the people we read about in the bible had to learn to fully trust God, so it looks like to me that the seed of doubt had been sown through the confusion caused by seeing things that appeared to be conflicting with what the word of God says. Just as God has sowers, so does the devil.

Yes the serpents seed came through Cain - the serpent impregnated Eve the first time. He 'beguiled' (tempted) her and she 'ate' (partook) and accepted the offer.

'God's' seed followed Seth's decendants - because Abel had been murdered by Cain. So Adam's true sone was Seth.

Not sure how sin factors into the whole thing.

God's seed is God's people, humanity, the body of believers. The quote from Genesis refers to the serpent and his seed is snakes. Mostly when the bible refers to "seed" it refers to descendants or children.
