Also worth noting that different Pentecostal churches, probably more in the south, do the drinking poison/snake handling thing. Completely ignoring, "Thou shalt not test the Lord thy God."
After having "demons" cast off of me and being terrified from one guy, and praying for weeks for demons to leave me and stop screaming in my ears, he kept saying, "They're leaving. I feel it. They're leaving." I was like "It's still there..." He's like, "They'll be gone soon." It didn't stop. So he lectured me about never marrying out of the UPC and insisted I get married immediately. (That didn't help and also I didn't listen to him.)
Eventually I had a dream where the ringing was loud and I was screaming for them to stop, my parents were screaming, "It's your brain!" And then I ran out of the house and saw Jesus. I don't remember him saying anything but kept hearing my parents tell me it was my brain.
So I realized it was tinnitus from a new kind of birth control I was trying to regulate my hormones. It was $4 a pack and new to the market. Was stuttering/stammering a lot at the time from stress too, slurring my words, so was probably about to have a stroke.
That was a bad thing to go through when I was already in spiritual warfare.
