Suffering For Righteousness Sake

What is the battle between the 'Seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent'? How is Saul a picture of the flesh? Why did David get the honor as a picture of Christ? Why do some oppose God getting all the glory? Why are some afraid of men to such a degree that they stay where the Gospel is not preached? How does this show how the flesh detests a Sovereign God? Why did Christ die? Why don't some see the death of the Righteous Christ as payment for sin?
