Re: Snake Handling is Wrong?

There are snake handlers who make the issue salvational. Don't know why that bothers you. It's no different than making one's wardrobe and television a salvational issue. You can't have it both ways.

I support their right to take scripture literally. Snake handlers don't treat the Bible like Pentecostals treat the trough at Golden Corral. Snake handlers take the entire passage literally. They don't pick and choose from the buffet.

You need a lot more due diligence to speak intelligently on the subject. You need to read what I say carefully and stopp suggesting I'm saying something I am not. Their interpretation of Mark 16 is a lot more solid and more credible than yours.

Ok, I took your advice , went back and read every word you posted on my thread. It's clear to me from you own words, that :

You have a strong contempt for Ulta Cons, who have a salvational dress code.

You have an obvious dislike for folks whom you perceive as being gluttonous.

You also have a strong admiration for snake handlers.

You also don't like me or anything I say. So why don't you and I give it a rest, and stop beating a dead horse

Go start your own thread.

Re: Snake Handling is Wrong?

Ah yes...yet ANOTHER one with no sense of humor.I just do not believe that u should put God to foolish tests.In Deut.Israel tested the Lord and He didnt seem too happy with it.As far as due dilligence still studying on the topic. Still,lets say snakes are handled and you get bitten,is that person lost?Did they fail God?Really would be doing a better job selling me on this by providing where it happened INTENTIONALLY in scripture,I find examples of tongues and healing but not in KNOWINGLY grabbing snakes and
