That is correct.

I guess they would say about that they didn't truly believe then. That's messed up, I thank God for a place that teaches truth and doesn't have some weird interpretation of scriptures like these.

Re: In Jesus' Name: Taking Up Serpents
Pure nonsense.
Taking up serpents and drinking deadly poisons is tempting the Lord.
Not it is not an act of faith it is actually an act of presumption.
those dear brethren are simply dangerously mistaken.

Good thing they don't have a pit full of lions, and they each take turns spending a night.

I think it is dying out actually. I think it is more difficult to find a church now a days that actually practices snake handling. I was doing a little research a couple years ago and decided to try to find a snake handling church to visit. It was more difficult finding one than I thought. Most of the ones that I did find out about had less than 10 people. I think their movement is a shadow of what it was at one point.

Re: In Jesus' Name: Taking Up Serpents
One of their congregants told me that there are several churches who at one time practiced it, but due to lawsuits and bad publicity they no longer do.
