Serpents are suppose to bite

Serpents are suppose to bite

The serpents are suppose to bite you, if not what sign would you see?  They can handle serpents, with iniquity and lust in their hearts, but let one bite them and see what happens. 

Acts Chapter 28: The Apostle Paul was gathering fire wood, not packing them to church, and God allowed a viper to bite him, for a SIGN..., when he felt no harm, it causes faith to arise in the people, so He could use Paul to heal their sick. The purpose of the THIS SIGN was to heal their sick & minister the word, to deliver the people.  Where do serpent handling churches get the idea that they are not suppose to bite you, what does that prove? NOTHING..

James Chapter 3: Tells us that every beast, including serpents, can be tamed, except for the TONGUE which no man can tame, and it is full of deadly poison.  So what if, Paul would have died, what would that have proven? Think for a while.  Would he have been a martyr for Christ?  No the barbarians would have thought he was a murder even though he had escaped the sea, vengeance suffereth him not to live.

  Paul not having the anointing of God to protect him, so therefore he would have died lost.  Signs are to prove, vindicate, confirm, that the gospel you are preaching is true, (the gospel of Jesus Christ which is, "His Birth, Death and Resurrection (prove that "Christ has risen"). 

So why would God have to prove to the same group of people every church service that he has risen, cause they already know that, if they have been born again. By allowing them to handle snakes over and over every church service and not get bit.

So the sign is to get bit by the serpent and feel no harm like the Apostle Paul, signs are for unbelievers, not the believers.  Handling serpents and not

getting bit don't prove nothing, they do that in zoo's or circus's...If you get killed carrying out the sign, taking up serpents, then you die in the spirit of ERR (err, which means lies, twisted scriptures, due to blindness, no revelation from God, showing what the scriptures mean). Sincere but sincerely wrong.

A martyr is one that dies for the gospel not for carrying out signs.  There is no such thing.  There is no sign that messes up, it has no flaws or it could not be as sign, RIDICULE.  Remember Moses down in Egypt, signs to vindicate, that Moses was sent by God.  Same as the great Apostle Paul.

John the baptist, Steven, these men were martyrs for preaching the gospel, not for taking up serpents the wrong way.  This is also to me, animal cruelty, taking them from the wild.

Why am I on this subject? I use to be a serpent handler, and probably handled more than a lot of them.  I have seen a lot handle them that was not living right, therefore, I began to seek God for the revelation of this sign.  For we cannot do away with no part of the Bible, but we must get the understanding of it, as in Daniel 2:19, when God gave him the meaning of the dream. 

God is wanting to use me to reach those who will listen, it takes the Holy Ghost to penetrate that darkness (err) or they will never see. I'm so thankful for his love and mercy toward me, that he open my eyes so I could see.  And now I can once again focus on the lost and dying world (first love) and if there is ever a need for this sign to be carried out, I will run upon one like Paul and leave it in the wild.

I don't want to lose any more people that I love, that is in these churches. Please Lord use me to help them, if only I can help one, it will be worth all the persecution that I have to go through to reach that one.  My heart and love goes out to all those precious

people that has lost a love one by the horrible death of a serpent.  My spirit within me becomes stirred and angry, knowing that Satan has used another serpent to kill another precious life.    And my heart is so broken for them.

Err is err no matter what church it is in.  The Jesus Name, Baptist, Pentecostal, etc.  err is err.  Which makes the word of God of none effect, powerless.  Remember err is a Spirit, which one are you yielding to, this is going to all churches.  There is good and bad in all churches, and part truth in a lot of them.  If everyone would stop preaching things gotten by traditions, flesh mind, family and seek God, for those who preach will give account at the judgement and no excuse will hold up, for we can seek God for the answers. 

Remember the last chapter in the Bible,  Revelations 22:18..And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of the prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life and out of the Holy City, and from the things which are written in this book.
