    I was raised in the Pentecostal religion and was taught many things about having faith in God. Snakes was not one of them. I was told many times that I should always have faith in God and trust in him for all things. I personally believe trusting in God is a good thing and I also believe God expects us to use good judgement and common sense. Most Christians interpret these verses metaphorically rather than literally, emphasizing the spiritual power and protection that comes from faith rather than physical acts like snake handling. Very well-done video.

      He values wisdom & knowledge. The Bible is inaccurate about human spirits destination upon physical death. Also, mistranslations. It's men's divinely inspired subjective perceptions. Bigotry & ignorance have driven folks away from church.

There is a Fountain old hymn . the word of our God shall stand for ever . Isaiah 40 8 God is not the author of confusion . 1 Corinthians 14 33 .

    I remember him he came to my small town in East Tennessee to help a fellow preacher who was Pentacostal and yes he had as many snakes as Mack!! I was at the church only once for a wedding no snakes that day because I would not have been there!! Also there was another pastor I believe in Virginia who died from a snake bite he was friends with Mack and the local preacher here in my hometown!! I live close to the Virginia and Kentucky border as well so tragic I'm a Christian but I don't think God asked us to do that I don't but if God told me himself I would but he hasn't so

    I was raised Pentecostal and I believe in all of the signs following them that believe in his Name . The problem I have with handling serpents is that Everytime I've seen it and watched videos of people handling them in church, I've never seen anyone lay hands on somebody and God heal them from cancer or bring em up out of wheelchairs and I've never saw devils being cast out or any of the other signs except handling serpents . Now I'm not saying it's not happened, I'm saying I've never seen it where I live or anywhere else that they handle serpents. However I have saw Miracles happen in several different churches including deaf ears opened and blind eyes opened and I promise you it wasn't a bunch of Abra Kadabra stuff. A lot of it was little small innocent children that was absolutely blown away because they'd been healed. I'm just saying I'd much rather pray for someone to be healed or someone delivered from demonic possession than I ever would handling serpents .

    My father’s family is from Lee County in Ky and I had heard stories about this same thing. About snakes in their church and their beliefs about casting out demons and healing the sick and I can’t deny what is in the Word Of God about these things but I am too scared to even pick up a non venomous snake not alone one of those timber rattlers! I really appreciate your videos Buddy. ❤

    I worked for Fanning funeral home back in 83 when the one had died from a snake bite. I remember while there, to make sure I watched out for what boxes I picked up. Mainly because the snake boxes almost looked exactly like boxes that we carried light stands in for the coffins. I was nervous as a wreck the whole time I was there. And yes, they handled snakes during the funeral. This took place in Jolo West Virginia.

    Amen! I believe every word in the Bible. But that is not a "mandate." I wouldn't ever say someone who does that is not a Christian. But how did man fall? He was deceived by a serpent. Why would you ever tempt God by handling one?

      Respect other creatures' God-given qualities, just like we do with those of different cultures, sexualities & races. The Bible has inaccuracies. It's a compilation of men's subjective perceptions. It is divinely inspired but not a factual textbook. Literacy matters not without spiritual gift of discernment. Church pews are vacant due to literate folks' ignorance, bigotry & poor education.❤

      @BakerBaker1-9 I met God at the cross when Jesus saved me I'm washed in the blood of the Lamb. It's always been that simple . One Lord one faith one baptism . Ephesians 4 5 . For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved . John 3 17 . I am crucified with Christ nevertheless I live yet not I but Christ liveth in me and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me . Galatians 2 20 . For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness but unto us which are saved it is the power of God . 1 Corinthians 1 18 . Father baptizes with the Holy Ghost thru the Son . John 10 30 Acts 11 16 Titus 3 6 . That's how I met God at the cross when Jesus saved me I'm washed in the blood of the Lamb . It still blows my mind and it happened ten years ago. Jesus kept me out of prison . Praise the Lord !

    We've learned a helluva lot in 2k years. We're expected to apply it and revise it as we keep learning. That pastor wanted to entertain for ego purpose or childlike attn seeking. The church isn't a concert or entertainment venue. God values wisdom & knowledge; respect other creatures' differences like culture, race and genuine sexuality. My late church Pastor was quasi-Pentecostal. So, when he said that snake-handling is a foolish misinterpretation, that's an understatement. Discernment, not literacy, is most important. Bible is also wrong about human spirits going straight to a destination upon death of the body. Ppl frown when told it's not a textbook. Thx for this.🐍🎃🍂💀

      @BPierce777 Catholics already have wirh various Councils of This & That. Books of Enoch found with the Dead Sea Scrolls were excluded. There are mistranslations from Hebrew to Latin. Untruths like women are inferior, everyone is judged upon death, the Earth is 4k yrs old... Revision of interpretation is appropriate. That's how science works. It's continually updated & subject to revisit. Truths are learned along the way that negate previously held beliefs. Jesus stood for Truth. God values wisdom & knowledge. Do you?🤔

    • @bdpage2023

    I am a believer in the Bible, however it is now known that the second half of the book of Mark was not in any original manuscripts of scripture and possibly was added later by a believing writer to complete the chapter. Those words about snakes is not found in any other part of the 4 gospels or any other place in the Bible. I think some of these snake handlers don’t understand that this is not something we are supposed to do, but a metaphor to tell us that He will with us in difficult situations. I agree with Leo ‘s comments about it.
    It was brilliant how you found that graveyard by spotting the yucca tree!

    This was such a great video my hillbilly brother. I'm getting ready to do a snake handling video on my channel coming up sometime soon. I really love your channel in your content. I believe that the lord was talking to his disapples in the book of Mark. Those verses are always taken out of context. You have to read the whole chapter to receive the whole story. If you all ever get down around East Tennessee, the smoky mountains around pigeon forge. Give me a holler sometime. I would love to hug your neck and shake. Your hand.

    I always wanted to visit this area of West Virginia. What happened to his church? Though I embrace the Pentecostal movement....I don't do snakes. I admire his tenacity...he committed much time to the ministry.....he wasn't in it for money.

    I live in Ky grew up in Eastern ky. I remember when I was young my parents would take us to different churches. Being Pentecostal we visited many different churches in Ky, WVa, Va, Tenn, OH, Carolinas, etc. anyway, I have been to a few snake handling churches. These people would talk in tongues, run around the church like a race track hollering and screaming, dancing, etc. it was enough to scare the hell out of you, especially if you was a child. Those snakes scared me half to death, they was throwing those things around like they was nothing.

    As you said do not tempt the Lord thy God. I would never recommend taking up serpents, but, there have been alot more people that have handled them without being bit than those who have. It would take someone alot smarter than me to explain it but I feel like it's as dangerous to pass judgment on someone else's standings with God as it is to handle that mean ole rattler!

    It is also legal in Tennesee where a friend of mine married a girl who was raised in " the primitive Baptist church" in Franklin, this bunch doesn't hold with photography ( it's creating " graven images" to them) and they also don't hold with Wedding receptions, having just a " sweet table" after such events but my buddies uncle bought a go pro and fastened it to his leg in order to produce a wedding video for my buddies friends at home, I haven't heard from him in awhile so I don't know if he's still married but at least count he had two daughters with one on the way.

    If you swim in shark infested water, expect to get shark bitten.
    If you're playing with poisonous snakes, expect to get bit.
    But don't expect me to handle that situation peacefully!
    The reaction you get won't be what you expected!!

    I`ve been bitten by copperheads but thankfully nothing worse and the bites weren`t severe. One was on my hand while clearing brush, one was on my right ankle in the woods while metal detecting, and one was on my right big toe by a baby one in my friend`s yard at night. The ones on my hand and my ankle were the worst but I didn`t go to a doctor. The bite on my hand where one fang got me melted a small hole in the skin and a lot of the venom came out within a minute.
    I was mildly sick for several days and my shoulder muscles quit working for 6 weeks. I couldn`t drive for a few days because I couldn`t see well and felt dizzy and strange with light sensitivity. My hand was bruised and swelled along with my forearm the next morning.
    The ankle bite caused a lot of swelling in my foot and I had to stay in bed for 5 days. The toe bite swelled and blistered very fast and when it popped I felt better and was ok. It hurt the worst so I`m not sure what kind it was. I had trouble breathing for a few minutes.
    Rattlesnakes & cottonmouths have never tried to bite me. I stepped on a rattlesnake`s tail once and he politely tapped my foot to let me know. I moved him to a safer place and thanked him.

    The fulfillment of what that verse was talking about was in Acts when Paul was bitten by a serpent and did not die. It was not meant for all of us to handle snakes.

    I have never been able to understand how people can take parts of God's word and make it the whole focus. They totally ignore the scripture that says it is written that THOU SHALL NOT TEMPT THY GOD. Which to me, if you go out purposefully and do dangerous things, thinking you won't die, is tempting God.

    I really like your humanity. As an atheist myself I don’t understand why he would allow himself to be killed by a snake when he could have been saved by a very simple anti venom. But I also support his right to do that. As long as he wasn’t endangering others without their consent. Care about your fellow human beings is the key, no matter what their beliefs. Thank you for sharing this man’s story. He mattered to many, I’m sure.

    I got the holy ghost snake handling proves nothing about a person having faith, just proves God has mercy on ignorance.. the whole reason God gave us the Holy Ghost wasn’t to handle snakes but to bare fruit and be a light that’s just as bad as the ones that say you have to keep the sabbath and are bound by law. Real saints serve the lord everyday and Jesus is our sabbath, he is our rest
