I can only tell you that I have seen venomous snake bites, and venomous spider bites, and bees and wasps swarm individuals in remote missionary areas, where medical help is not available, and people dropped to their knees and prayed (in Jesus’ Name), and the life spared. I saw a case where a man was bleeding so bad that no first aid treatment would stop it, and there was no doctor or medical facility within 50 miles. Christians fell on their faces and prayed, and the bleeding stopped. We can tell bunches of incidents that were taken care of under believing prayer.
You can call me a cook, or you can think anything you want. But I've prayed over old car motors that shouldn't be able to pull their own weight, hooked up a 6,000 pound house trailer, and got to where I needed to go. And I believe that, too, was direct answer to prayer.
So, now we've moved on from Minnesota... okay, whatever.
My point is someone who is bringing 'serpents' into a house of worship for 'handling' and praying in tongues hardly has room to mock someone else's religion.
And no, I didn't call you a 'cook'.
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
I’ve known poor folks go a lot more miles on a tank of gas than was humanly possible, too.
