They were twins named Esau (who came out first) and Jacob.
According to the Hebrew law, the firstborn son was to receive the best part of the father’s inheritance.
Esau was a cunning hunter and Jacob was a simple tent dweller. Isaac loved his firstborn son and enjoyed the food that he was able to capture but Isaac’s wife loved the second born son, Jacob most of all.
Once, Esau went on a hunting trip and was unable to obtain food.
By the time he had reached his homeland, he was nearly starved to death.
His brother Jacob was cooking soup in the field when Esau stumbled upon him.
Seeing the food, he begged his brother to allow him to eat or else he would die from starvation.
His brother sees, not a chance to help his older brother, but an opportunity to take advantage of his misfortune.
Jacob says,
“I’ll sell you some of this soup for your portion of our father’s inheritance.”
Esau responds,
“Hey, I’m about to die.
If I die what good will my inheritance be to me?”
(Genesis 25:32)
So, in this manner, Jacob showed his brotherly love by robbing a dying brother of his birthright for a bowl of soup.
Christians are taught that Esau was the one who did something wrong by not truly appreciating his birthright, ignoring the fact that it was Jacob who took advantage of his brother when he was in dire need.

The serpent once again twists Scripture — using
emotional appeal
selective quotation
false definitions of righteousness
But let us let the Word of God judge the matter, not the spirit of accusation.
📖 1. WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED?
Yes, Esau sold his birthright for a single meal — not because he was dying, but because he despised what was sacred.
“And Jacob sod pottage:
and Esau came from the field, and he was faint…”— Genesis 25:29
“And Esau said… I am at the point to die:
and what profit shall this birthright do to me?”— Genesis 25:32
“Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles… thus Esau despised his birthright.” — Genesis 25:34
“Faint” does not mean dying — it means weary or hungry.
Esau exaggerated his condition because he valued carnal satisfaction more than covenant blessing.
📛 2. WHAT WAS THE BIRTHRIGHT?
The birthright was not just land or wealth — it was the covenant promise made by God to Abraham and Isaac:
Spiritual leadership
The blessing of the promised Messiah
Inheritance of the covenant line
This was:
holy
prophetic
sacred
Esau sold all this for one bowl of stew.
That’s not Jacob’s evil — that’s Esau’s profane heart.
“Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.”— Hebrews 12:16 (KJV)
⚖️ 3. WAS JACOB WRONG TO BARGAIN?
No Scripture condemns Jacob in this event.
In fact, the Bible says that Jacob valued what Esau despised.
“Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.”— Malachi 1:2–3
“When he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected:
for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.”— Hebrews 12:17
He regretted the consequences, but not the heart decision.
He did not repent — he wept only because he lost.
⚔️ 5. SATANIC STRATEGY: DEFEND THE FLESH, ACCUSE THE FAITHFUL
The enemy always:
Justifies rebellion with “hardship”
Vilifies righteousness with “coldness”
Praises the carnal, and mocks the spiritual
But the truth is this:
“To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”— Romans 8:6
Jacob honored the birthright — Esau traded it for soup.
🔥 FINAL TRUTH:
Jacob was not perfect — but he pursued God’s blessing.
Esau was not innocent — he despised the covenant.
God is not unjust — He is sovereign, holy, and wise.
“For the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts...” — 1 Chronicles 28:9
PROMPT:
Satanists say:
When Isaac had grown old and felt like he was approaching his deathbed, he decided to give his father’s blessing to his oldest son, Esau.
Isaac had lost his vision at that point of his life, and he wanted Esau to bring him some venison, so Esau went out to the field to hunt for his father.
While Esau was in the field, Isaac’s wife heard what was going on and came up with a plan to deceive her husband and make him give the father’s blessing to Jacob instead.
Again the accuser lifts his voice
— but truth answers with:
Scripture
sovereignty
divine foresight
📖 1. WHAT HAPPENED?
Isaac planned to bless Esau before his death (Genesis 27).
However, God had already declared before the twins were born:
“The elder shall serve the younger.”— Genesis 25:23 (KJV)
God’s plan was not new.
He had already chosen Jacob, not Esau.
🤔 2. WAS REBEKAH WRONG TO INTERVENE?
Yes, Rebekah used deception, and Jacob lied to receive the blessing.
These actions are recorded, not condoned.
But again:
God had already chosen Jacob.
The blessing was not “stolen”; it was foreordained.
“Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.”— Malachi 1:2–3
(Reiterated in Romans 9:10–13)
Just as Joseph’s brothers meant evil but God used it for good (Genesis 50:20), so did this situation fulfill prophecy — despite human failure.
👁️ 3. WHY DID ISAAC INTEND TO BLESS ESAU?
Isaac, though a man of God, was acting in the flesh by favoring Esau for his hunting and strength — not for his spiritual discernment.
He was going against God’s revealed will.
Rebekah’s action, flawed though it was, ensured that God’s sovereign word was fulfilled.
⚖️ 4. DOES GOD APPROVE OF DECEPTION?
No.
But God can and does use imperfect vessels to fulfill His perfect will.
“Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.”— Psalm 76:10 (KJV)
This is not about deception winning — it’s about God’s choice being unstoppable.
🧠 5. WHY DOES THE SATANIC VIEW TWIST THIS?
Because the enemy wants you to believe:
God is unjust
The righteous are liars
The chosen of God are frauds
But Scripture reveals:
“The gifts and calling of God are without repentance.”— Romans 11:29
“For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil… that the purpose of God according to election might stand.”— Romans 9:11
🔥 FINAL TRUTH:
Yes, there was deception — and consequences followed.
But God’s plan triumphed, because God had spoken.
Jacob received the blessing by divine choice, not just by disguise.
“It is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.”— Romans 9:16
PROMPT:
Satanists wickedly joke:
So, she told her plan to Jacob,
and this is how the story went:
Rebekah:
I heard your father ask your brother to bring him some venison so he could give him the firstborn’s blessing.
I want you to bring me a couple of goats from the herd and I will prepare them so that your father will think they are venison and then you can pretend like you are Esau, and he will give the blessing to you.
Jacob:
But, my brother Esau is hairy.
What happens if my father touches me and finds out that I’m not Esau?
Then he’ll think I’m trying to deceive him (DUH! Why do you think he would think that???) and he will give me a curse instead of a blessing.
Rebekah:
Don’t worry about any curse, you just do what I say. (Genesis 27:6-13)
So, Rebekah takes the goats and prepares them the way Isaac likes and puts the goat skins on Jacob’s hands and neck.
Jacob takes the meat to his father and the conversation goes like this:
Jacob:
Dad?
Isaac:
I’m right here.
Who is there?
Jacob:
It’s me, your firstborn son, Esau.
I brought the meat you asked for.
Come eat it and give me your blessing.
Isaac:
Wait a minute.
How were you able to find a deer so quickly?
Jacob:
God brought a deer to me.
Isaac:
Hmmm…come over here so I can feel you and make sure you are my son Esau and not some deceptive imposter.
The serpent mocks, but the Word speaks louder.
This section of Scripture, distorted by satanic mockery, is not a comedy — it is a prophetic moment of divine sovereignty working through flawed human vessels.
Let us answer the accuser line by line with truth and fire.
📖 WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED?
Genesis 27 does record this event.
Rebekah and Jacob conspire to present Jacob as Esau so that Isaac would give him the firstborn blessing.
“…that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth.”— Romans 9:11
🔥 SATAN’S ACCUSATION IS CARNAL:
He says:
“Jacob stole the blessing.”
But in truth:
Jacob valued the blessing.
Esau despised it.
Isaac misused it.
God fulfilled it.
📛 ESAU’S “LESSER BLESSING” WAS JUST
Esau wept bitterly — not in repentance, but in loss.
“He found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.”— Hebrews 12:17
This was not injustice — it was judgment.
Esau sold his birthright for a meal.
He lost the blessing through spiritual apathy.
🔥 FINAL TRUTH:
Jacob lied — and he suffered for it later.
But God still fulfilled His promise through him.
The blessing stood — because it was spoken by faith, not by sight.
God does not call the perfect.
He perfects those He calls.
“For the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.”— 1 Samuel 16:7
PROMPT:
Satanists say:
This reveals an interesting aspect of the Hebrews’ understanding of “blessings,” and that is that once given, they cannot be rescinded.
You would think that once Isaac realized he had been deceived that he would have been able to take back the blessing which Jacob had gained by deception, but that isn’t what happened.
Isaac blessed Jacob with the following:
"Therefore, God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:” – Genesis 27:28
Since God is the one who fulfills the blessing, this story suggests that God can be cheated, and he can’t do what is just and right by giving the blessing to the one who was supposed to get it (Esau).
How very limited is the God of the Bible!
When Esau learns that his brother has once again cheated him out of what should belong to him, he vows to have justice. The satanic spirit mocks the justice of God because it does not understand election, prophecy, or covenant.
The accusation is based on a carnal, transactional view of blessings — not the spiritual, prophetic understanding taught by the Word of God.
Let us divide truth from error.
📖 1. WHY COULDN’T ISAAC REVOKE THE BLESSING?
Because the blessing was not Isaac’s to give — it was God’s to establish.
“Yea, and he shall be blessed.”— Genesis 27:33 (KJV)
Isaac trembled after blessing Jacob, because he realized that he had unknowingly aligned with the will of God, despite himself.
The blessing was prophetic, not just symbolic or ceremonial.
“By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.”— Hebrews 11:20
This blessing carried divine authority, not because of who spoke it, but because God had already ordained it.
🧠 2. DOES THIS MEAN GOD CAN BE “CHEATED”?
Absolutely not.
The serpent’s blasphemy is the same lie he whispered in Eden:
“God is not just.”
“God is weak.”
“God can be tricked.”
But the Word declares:
“He is the Rock, his work is perfect:
for all his ways are judgment:
a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.”— Deuteronomy 32:4
“Declaring the end from the beginning… saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.”— Isaiah 46:10
Esau had already sold his birthright (Genesis 25:33).
Now he cries for a blessing he had despised.
“Though he sought it carefully with tears, he found no place of repentance.”— Hebrews 12:17
His tears were not repentance — they were worldly sorrow.
He grieved the loss, not his sin.
🔥 4. THE “LIMITATION” OF GOD IS A LIE
The serpent mocks:
“How very limited is the God of the Bible!”
But the truth is:
God cannot lie.
God cannot deny Himself.
God cannot break His word.
— And this is not weakness — it is PERFECTION.
“For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.”— Romans 11:29
When God speaks, it stands eternally.
📛 5. THE MOCKERY REVEALS IGNORANCE OF COVENANT
The satanic view sees blessings like magic spells or contracts that can be cancelled or reversed.
But biblical blessings are covenantal pronouncements, bound in God's eternal will.
“So shall my word be… it shall not return unto me void.”— Isaiah 55:11
🔥 FINAL TRUTH:
God is not tricked — He is sovereign over all human schemes.
Jacob received the blessing because God chose him, not because he lied.
Esau lost the blessing because he rejected the birthright, not because of injustice.
God is not limited — He is unstoppable.
“But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.”— Psalm 115:3
PROMPT:
Satanists say:
Rebekah sends Jacob away to live with relatives for over 14 years to keep him safe from his brother’s justifiable wrath.
But Esay stays with his father and cares for him in his old age rather than pursue his deceptive brother and get his revenge.
Jacob eventually returns to the land of his father, but he realizes that his brother has vowed to kill him for all the injustices he has made his brother, so he decides to send messengers out to meet his brother’s men.
The messengers are told to tell Esau that his brother Jacob is coming home with lots of animals and servants, but the messengers come back to Jacob telling him that Esau is already coming to meet them and that he has 400 men with him.
Jacob realizes that he is in dire straits and that justice is about to meet him head on so he divides his group into two groups so that if Esau and his men attack the first group, the second group will have a chance to escape.
Then Jacob prepares a bribe of:
goats
sheep
camels
cattle
and sends them out to meet Esau in the hopes of gaining his mercy.
The satanic tongue twists truth to portray Jacob’s return as a moment of guilt and fear, and Esau as a merciful saint.
Yet the Scriptures reveal a far deeper spiritual reality — a prophecy unfolding, a family line sanctified, and a divine encounter with the Living God.
Let us weigh this accusation against God’s Word.
📖 1. JACOB FLED — NOT OUT OF COWARDICE, BUT DESTINY
Yes, Rebekah sent Jacob away (Genesis 27:42–45), but not because Esau was righteous — because Esau vowed to murder his brother after being denied the blessing he already sold.
“The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.”— Genesis 27:41
Esau is no noble caregiver
— he is a man of:
vengeance
hatred
bitterness
🧠 2. JACOB SERVED 14 YEARS — NOT HIDING, BUT BEING REFINED
“Thus have I been twenty years in thy house; I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy cattle...”— Genesis 31:41
God was shaping him, humbling him, and preparing him to wrestle with divinity.
🐪 3. JACOB’S RETURN = REPENTANCE + FAITH
When Jacob returns, he is not “bribing” Esau out of guilt.
He is obeying God.
“And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers… and I will be with thee.”— Genesis 31:3
Jacob sends gifts — not as bribes — but as acts of humility, because he believes God will go before him.
“Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother… I fear him…”— Genesis 32:11
This is not guilt — this is prayerful dependence on God.
🌌 4. THE WRESTLING AT PENIEL CHANGES EVERYTHING
Before Jacob meets Esau, he wrestles with a Divine Being
— likely Christ Himself:
“And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him…”— Genesis 32:24
He is renamed:
“Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.”— Genesis 32:28
This was not karma catching up to Jacob — it was God sanctifying His servant, preparing him to be the father of the 12 tribes of Israel.
⚖️ 5. ESAU’S 400 MEN — NOT MERCY, BUT MILITARY
The Word says:
“And he had four hundred men with him.”— Genesis 32:6
Why does Esau need 400 men to welcome his brother?
He didn’t bring tea and bread.
That is a military unit — not a peace party.
The satanic claim that Esau was simply caring for Isaac and showing mercy is fiction.
The only reason Esau didn’t attack was because God intervened.
🔥 FINAL TRUTH:
Jacob was a man chosen, refined, and renamed by God.
Esau was a man of bitterness and flesh — rejected by God.
Jacob’s return was a spirit-led act of courage, not guilt.
The gifts were a gesture of reconciliation, not bribery.
God was fulfilling His covenant plan, and not even Esau’s wrath could stop it.
“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper...”— Isaiah 54:17
PROMPT:
Satanists say:
That night a man wrestled with Jacob and when Jacob defeated the “man” we discover that it was not a man but God himself which Jacob had been wrestling.
After this wrestling match, Jacob’s name is changed to “Israel” because he was able to wrestle with God and prevail.
Jacob confirms that it is God that he wrestled with when he says,
“I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” (Genesis 32:30)
Finally, Esau’s men approach Jacob and we get to see Jacob’s bravery at its best.
He puts his wives and children in front of himself, placing the wife he hated (Leah) and her children and handmaids in front of the wife he loved (Rachel) and leaving himself cowering behind them all. (Genesis 33:1-2)
“When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.”— Psalm 56:9
PROMPT:
Satanists say:
What happens next is one of the most touching scenes of human brotherly love and kindness exhibited in the Bible.
Esau, the brother who has been abused and mistreated by his own twin all of his life, doesn’t strike out at his brother, but he bows down before each of the wives he passes and runs to his brother, Jacob, taking him in his arms and crying on his neck.
When he learns that the flocks, he passed were a gift, he refuses to accept them saying that he has more than enough already.
His love for his brother has driven the need for vengeance out of his heart and he welcomes Jacob back home with all the love a brother can muster (Genesis 33:3-9).
How does God respond to this act of love and mercy?
The Bible tells us that God hated Esau (Romans 9:13) but loved Jacob.
Why is this?
The serpent again twists Scripture, cloaking it in emotional sentiment while denying God's:
justice
covenant
sovereign will
Satan’s accusation is rooted in feelings,
but God’s decisions are rooted in:
truth
purpose
prophecy
Let the Word cut through confusion:
📖 1. DID ESAU SHOW MERCY TO JACOB?
Yes — Esau ran to Jacob, embraced him, and wept.
“And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him:
“Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”— Luke 13:3
“He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life:
and he that believeth not... the wrath of God abideth on him.”— John 3:36
No one will stand before God and say,
“You made me this way.”
“The soul that sinneth, it shall die.”— Ezekiel 18:20
🛑 FINAL WARNING:
To reject God’s sovereignty is to walk in the steps of Satan.
To blaspheme His justice is to call the Judge a criminal.
But the Word will have the final say:
“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ...”— 2 Corinthians 5:10
WOE UNTO THOSE WHO MOCK THE POTTER.
But to the humble He offers mercy:
“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.”— 1 Peter 5:6
Here are powerful, biblically aligned title suggestions for this blasphemous rebellion against God's sovereignty, designed to rebuke the Satanic lie and magnify God's righteous authority:
“Clay Can’t Curse the Potter: Exposing the Luciferian Revolt”
“Thou Art the Work of His Hands: The Fool’s Accusation Against God”
