St Mark 16;18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; ---.

The serpent is probably the lowest form of creature in God's eyes, but it is hard for me to imagine that He would approve of the harassment of the serpent, in a church by the congregation. After Jesus was Baptized and received the Holy Ghost He was in the wilderness tormented by Satan. With the torment it lasted two years with me. It only says that Jesus fasted forty days my fast lasted only three days and nights. No where can I find, how long Jesus was in the wilderness. St Matthew 4;1-11 7; Jesus said unto him, (Satan) It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Isn't this tempting God, making a fool out of yourself thinking it is for the glory of God when it isn't.

When Jesus was in the wilderness with Satan I believe He was tested to see if He would follow Satan, afterall Jesus was promised (all the kingdoms of the world,) If He would fall down and worship me. (Satan)

Notice it says (fall down) where have we saw this happening, "in todays churches." Or fall backwards, hopefully with a catcher present. Satan, I believe he noticed what happened one time when Jesus was present. St John 18;6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground. In the 5th verse is probably the answer to why they went and fell backwards. I believe satan himself was in Judas, and when Jesus said (I am He) Satan, might, have came out of Judas and knocked people backward and to the ground. According to what I understand those that are in the healing ministery, their has never been a documented person being healed.

What about new tongues? If it means anything it is the Word that the Father gave to Jesus for our salvation. When Jesus was baptized by John, it was at that time, He received the Holy Ghost. If tongues was part of the Holy Ghost it would have been mentioned at that time. It wasn't mentioned, so it is not part of a biblical truth nor ever was. Remember what I said about, "The Acts thru Jude."
