Are you going to pick up a deadly drink and down that? It is about healing, not actually picking up a snake or drinking a deadly drink on purpose.

I could see why the independent church moved out though.

Re: I feel like this is a double standard. What sa
I had a preacher tell me once that taking up serpents in Mark 16 meant dealing with dangerous people, A ask him, well does speaking in tongues require buying Rosetta Stone????

the bible does not say "handle snakes"...the meaning, to me, is clear from a biblical account of Paul accidentally being bitten and surviving

You are moving the discussion away from a church organization renting facilities from another church organization that stands in opposition to God's Word.
Purchasing the building and changing the face of the property is entirely a different story. Renting it, I stand with them in supportive agreement, IMO. Purchasing it and them moving away is another.
I am sure I don't know everything my local boutique owner does with her money, nor do I care. She doesn't come home with me, nor rent a room.
