Mrk 16:17-18 applies today, really ? Let's see :)

[Ronald Nolette]

Are you really a believer ?
If so, take the test


17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18They 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.

cast out devils
speak new tongues - speak to lost tribe in their language
take up serpents
drink deadly thing
lay hands heal - go to cancer ward & heal the dying

If you can't do the above then you are not a believer

Wrong on so many levels!

See how you go with 2 simple questions :)

Who did Christ in Acts 9:15, Rom 11:13, Rom 15:16 chose a Apostle & Minister to you ?
Who did ALL the Apostles in Gal 2:7-9 agree teaches you the Gospel

No.

Galatians 2:7-9 does not say Paul was the only one appointed to preach the gospel to gentiles. Just as it does not say Peter was the only one appointed to preach the gospel to the Jews.

Peter preached to Cornelius, a Roman soldier.

Phillip preached to the Ethiopian eunuch.

7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

 

[MatthewG]

I don’t think those verses should even be there. Just added manuscript that was inducted by someone. Forget who. It happens sometimes.

Isn’t this the one about drinking deadly poisons and playing with snakes.

People die from it and praise God?

Some churches still play with snakes. Crazy.
