SATAN, who used to be an angel, rebelled against God by refusing to prostrate himself before Adam, as God had commanded and the other angels had done.
He argued that men were but created of black clay, and he of smokeless fire, therefore he swore that men were corruptible and did not deserve his worship.
Adam had been given dominion of all the things of the world by the Creator Himself.
When the devil seduced Eve into letting her and her husband eat of the forbidden fruit, God then cursed Satan for plotting the destruction of mankind by planting the seed of evil in their hearts, by causing them to disobey Him.
The dragon fell from the heavens to the earth.
It was cursed more than all the beasts of the field and was made to crawl on its belly and eat of dust for the rest of its days.
The man was removed from the garden and made to eat of the herb of the field in toil.
The woman was made a servant to man and was given pain at labour and enmity between her ‘Seed’ and that of the dragon of old forever. These were their punishments for their disobedience to God.
So both mankind and the devil and his tribe were cast down from a high estate for an appointed time, after which God Himself would come among them to execute judgment in righteousness, reward the righteous and punish the wicked accordingly.
It is important to note that both God and the devil were never completely as detached to mankind as many may imagine today.
They had and still have their hosts on earth.
That is to say although they are of spiritual form; they can and do manifest themselves in the form of man.
God has His hosts and the devil has his hosts.
Jesus described the body as a temple and commanded men to keep it pure, only for the Lord.
God refers to Israelites and mankind who bow to false gods as harlots and perverts.
What the devil did not consider was the relationship that God intended between Himself and mankind.
He also underestimated the weakness of the flesh and when he appeared with his host, he caused sin on earth which was even greater than that of Adam.
The seed of evil grew in Cain, the first son of Adam, who was conceived shortly after their act of disobedience to God.
He killed his brother Abel over mere jealousy and when God saw this, he cursed him.
He made him a fugitive and a vagabond for the rest of his days.
He drove him out of the land and put a mark on him so that he could be easily identified and killed by anyone who saw him.
He said the life of Abel was to be avenged seven fold.
Cain and his people continued to sin and by the generation of his grandson Lamech, more lives had been taken by these devils or dragons of old.
There were also sins like sexual immorality and the worship of false gods.
Their sinning became so bad that God decided to destroy the whole of mankind apart from Noah and his family, who had come from the seed of Seth who was born after Abel had been killed.
After the great flood, which reset life on earth, Noah and his children; Shem, Ham and Japheth multiplied and populated the whole earth. They were all black once again because he who bore the mark had been wiped away by the flood.
However, Ham stared upon the nakedness of his father and this element of wickedness had bloomed in his son Canaan.
Noah identified the devil in Canaan and before he died he exposed this to all his children.
Canaan then inherited the curse of Satan and that of Cain that is whiteness and a fugitive status.
This was done through the plague of leprosy, which God placed in the land of Canaan by the time of Moses.
Today, the Aryans who are among the most anti-black groups in the world, can trace their roots back to Canaan.
God actually had to destroy the land of Sodom and Gomorrah, which had been defiled by the Canaanites through sins like homosexuality.
Jacob’s brother Esau is another important character when tracing the old dragon.
They were twins and it was prophesied before their conception that they were to be of different races and destined to be enemies forever. Esau came out first and was the peculiar one.
He was red in colour and as hairy as a goat.
His descendants are called Edomites because Edom means red.
Esau sold his birthright to Jacob for some red pottage after succumbing to a little hunger, thus the name Edom.
He despised his birthright and Jacob upheld it.
God hated this about Esau and he often spoke saying, “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I’ve hated.”
He knew the nature of Esau was that of the devil and so he laid the mark on him before he was even born.
Abraham and Isaac had commanded their children not to marry Canaanite women because they understood that they were the seed of their enemy, the devil and doing so was racial and spiritual genocide.
Considering that Canaanite whites came out of leprosy, we can consider them to be clean lepers.
According to the book of Leviticus, they had white skin, as white as snow and sometimes yellow hair that many refer to as blonde today. Thus the rest of the European population, particularly the British, French and the Germans are the sons of Canaan.
It is important to know that the curse was on Canaan and not on all the children of Ham.
Thus the Hamites who reside in Africa and India need not be deceived into believing that this curse falls on them as many whites like to claim.
Esau’s grandson Amalek was another character who God hated throughout the book.
He fought against his brother Israel when Moses was leading them out of Egypt and into their promised land of Canaan.
Edom did likewise and it’s these things that God hates about them.
There is also a detailed account of how an Amalek king (Agag) conducted a census to number all Israel with plans to exterminate them all in the days of Esther and Mordecai.
It was this period after the fall of the Kingdom of Israel that later gave rise to the Greek and Roman Empires.
So when the bible speaks of the dragon of old, it is speaking of the devil and his hosts who are here to deceive mankind but only for an appointed time.
