You mentioned v 18 but didn't quote it. Why not?
Mark 16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Why are snake handlers often criticized and ridiculed? Why are there no poison drinking churches? (Maybe there have been, but they didn't last very long?) How often do the sick recover when we lay hands on them, these days? If it isn't 100% of the time, does it mean we aren't real believers?
You seem to believe that
Mark 16:16-18 supports speaking in tongues as evidence of the Holy Spirit. Why are not the other items also evidence, and "required" in the Oneness Pentecostal doctrine, like tongues? (Correct me if I'm wrong about that, but I think OP teaches that tongues is required, right?)
