The serpent is a metaphor for the mind.
Gen 3: 14  By thy belly will you be lead
Gen 8: 15  Noah saw Christ in the sacrifices or offerings
v. 21  Man’s imagination of his heart / mind is evil from his youth
If we don’t see our death, we’re not better than the prosperity gospel
Phil 3: 7   v. 8 There’s no merit in losing all things; but rather in no longer giving them any importance.
v. 16  Let us mind the same thing, that’s the only thing that makes us a body.
We have no power because we’re not living by faith alone. We must live by faith alone. It must happen by faith. Christ saw the emptiness of the world as he lived just like you or me, until his figurative death at his baptism. The early Christians turned the world upside down by the cross, martyrdom, etc.
