"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches.
I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."
Revelation 22:16
Now compare the above verse to these:
"And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."
Philippians 2:8
"They will all respond, they will say to you, 'You also have become weak, as we are; you have become like us." All your pomp has been brought down to the grave, along with the noise of your harps; maggots are spread out beneath you and worms cover you. How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, 'I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.' But you are brought down to the grave, to the depths of the pit".
Isaiah 14:10-15
Add these to Jesus statement about bringing "not peace, but a sword" and it seems JESUS IS THE ADVERSARY.
