That would be true, as there seems to be a partial fulfillment of yjr PT prophecies concerning messiah, or maybe better to see that His first Coming prophecies were fully fulfilled, but many of his Future Second Coming ones have not yet!

It must be more than a partial fulfilment if the Gentiles are already fellow-citizens with the saints and of the household of God, Ephesians 2.

Furthermore, the apostle in Galatians 4 applies the judgment and mercy oracles upon Jerusalem as being fulfilled in the separation of Jerusalem below and above. That separation has already been made and is a part of the ordinary constitution of things until the consummation; and from Hebrews 12 we learn that the establishment of the heavenly Jerusalem to which believers have come is the result of a cataclysmic shake up of the same nature with that which was foretold by the prophets.

I would agree that in Jesus both Jews and gentiles are now in the same Body going forward since time of Pentecost, but do still see some major prophecies concerning end days not yet completed yet...
 
I think there will be differences among postmillenialists on this, and I don't think there is a distinctive postmillennial view on Genesis 3:15. I would refer to the standard Reformed commentaries on tbat verse. I would have thought that sound interpretation wouldn't specifically read the Antichrist/antichrists into it, but that the Serpent and his seed refers to the Devil and all his minions arrayed against the Church, including, and of course, incidentally the Antichrist and other antichrists.
