No backbiting. How about no snake biting?

And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
41:016:018 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. It doesn't say ALL of them. The bible also says we're all a part and none of us have all of the attributes. They are signs that the church was real and true. Not signs or gifts that every single believer had to have in common.

I can think of a lot better ways to get to the afterlife if someone is that impatient. Sometimes when you tempt fate, fate takes it personally..
To: Norm Lenhart
Around me snakes are endangered species. Around here we check after their head’s been parted from their body to see if they were poisonous.

Please, this is just a tradition, fully equal to Scripture as a source of doctrine...

Probably a corn snake. Very common as pets.

A tradition with not a lot of takers.

I’m in AZ so the ones here usually come with rattles attached. Of course there aren’t a lot left around populated ares for some reason.
But they do visit. It’s a quick visit.

“A tradition with not a lot of takers.”
Perhaps the mountain holiness equivalent of monasteries.

What a terrible misunderstanding of God. Matthew 4:7, for example, comes to mind.
To: aMorePerfectUnion
Please, this is just a tradition, fully equal to Scripture as a source of doctrine... Pretty sure ... no, make that 100% sure ... that the people who do this point directly to the verse from Mark quoted above and say that they are following the Bible, the Bible alone, and nothing but the Bible, sola scriptura.

If it was the other David Brock you’d be reading about the snake dying.

We need some of these country folk to do some snake hunting inside the DC beltway.
