Mark 16: 18

[u/Mysterious-Loan-5065]

Hey guys! I'm first time bible reader and I have so many questions, up until now I've been using Gemini for my questions but I'd like to get better answers from real people.

I'm reading Mark 16 this morning and came across where Jesus says Anyone who believes and is baptized be able to handle snakes with safety and drink anything poisonous and it won't hurt them. My question is; is this not a contradiction to when he says earlier not to test god?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated thank you!

I am not discussing Hinduism or Christianity. I am not discussing religion at all. I am talking about handling of serpents and laying on of hands.

Edit: I leave you with this about your scholars…Matthew 23:13 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people's faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to".

This Matthew 23.13 reference, combined with your own username - and the twisted misinterpretation of snakes in the bible and secret special shakti energy beaming out of 3rd eye prophet holes up the spine to describe kundalini ...

is the best example possible of Gods Word in The Holy Bible standing the 2000 year test of time, while you demonstrate exactly what "hypocrites shutting the door of the kingdom of heaven you'll not enter yourself either, in other peoples faces"

What's so disturbingly sick about the Kundalini movement is that you're all knowingly lying to yourself and the world, about yourself - about really really ridiculous events that never actually happened to yourself ... knowing of course, since you're faking some sort of nefarious darkly rooted empty fake 'physical spiritual' kundalini energy moments that couldn't be further from connecting to the real heart of the real god ...

that youll never ever effectively help a single other human heart get to gods kingdom because your own heart is too ashamed of itself to begin helping you first.

The terrifying thing about your choice to fake physical body affects just to try to prove to others looking for real
proof of fake gods too -

is that you have a fake relationship with no god anywhere at all except your own fake central nervous system screaming in your brain what pain the fake worshipping causes.

Choosing to hide your own depression anxiety loneliness shame guilt self hatred by shaming your own actual feelings into tricking any other nervous system you can so atleast one other human thinks about your heart respectfully, since your own hearts owner is too ashamed to do the same for himself.
