Isn't Christ speaking only to the apostles?

Nope...

Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mar 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Mar 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18 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.

As much as people can't stand it, it is one of the things that believers will exhibit as a 'sign' to unbelievers...

Do we exhibit these signs??? Nope...

Instead of trying to discredit the Gospels, seems folks would try to search out (in the scriptures) why we don't exhibit theses signs and are not protected from drinking poison...

But no, lets all slam the Holy words of God because we don't want to believe what he says...

Some “we” don’t exhibit such signs.

Thankfully, Some, do.

. . . Even to inadvertantly getting snake bit with no harm resulting.

I’ve always understood that to speaking about future events.
