MaxInDHouse: Are you still asking me if you understand the post? Well they're following the trend not God's word! Matthew 15:7-8
You cannot pick and choose what you want from what Jesus has spoken below. If you are a believer in Jesus christ going about preaching the gospel, then all these signs should follow you today.
Mark 16:15,18 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 "They will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all”
MaxInDHouse: The truth about miracles is that most of you don't know why God often intervene in some cases. If there's a message you need to pass to an Indian but you have colleagues who are also Indians is it necessary for you to speak the language anymore when you already have someone who also wants to share the same message in that particular language?
At Pentecost 33 C.E. all the disciples of Christ Jesus were Jews those visitors that came to Jerusalem to worship were Jews residing in far away nations and prostyles who have learned how to speak Jewish language due to their love for Judaism so for the message about Christ to sound unique and having God's backing that's why the Christians were granted the power to speak those strange languages. That event happened once and never was it repeated so for some to think they have to speak in tongues as a sign of God's backing for their religion makes no practical sense after all it's the same message your church wants to pass that others around you are passing!
So why are many Jesus followers today speaking nonsense gibberish as speaking in thongs?
MaxInDHouse: That's why i appreciate atheists and agnostics much more than people who claims they trusted in some books called "inspired" without questioning yet they will question the sanity of others who also believe in others books regarded as inspired!
KnownUnknown: The same reasons you don’t question the extraordinary things you believe.
If you start speaking Japanese just of a sudden without ever learning such then that's an extraordinary event. But if you start speaking nonsense gibberish as speaking in thongs then your sanity needs to be questioned.
Understand the era we are living today. People are much more wiser than watching magic circles where entertainers pick up snakes and drink poisons for the show.
Even children are not moved by such feats anymore
So those signs were just for entertainment at that time because the people at that time were not wise.
FRANCISTOWN: Since the founder of Jehovah Witness didn't have substantial biblical knowledge. He taught the same BS to you guys.
In the latter verses of Mark 16
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; [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. [19] So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. [20] And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen
My emphasis is on verse 20. Your half baked primitive knowledge only quoted what Jesus told them before his death. After his death he gave them the same instructions in verse 15: "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature" which the verse 20 confirmed.
Anyone who does no heal the sick, raise the dead, speak with new tongues and cast demons out is not sent by Jesus. But only a group of jobless individuals who have nothing to do with their limited time. Bunch of retards
Instead these deceivers today are speaking in thongs.
MaxInDHouse: How do you know if all the books ever started at all and it's all just an invention for the Roman empire.
The Old Testament we have today has been edited and updated by the Roman empire to make the God of the Old Testament to look like a God that is always angry and a Fake New Testament god that took Joseph's virgin wife to be the gentle good god that created himself as Jesus christ.
I know someone who is always saying anyone reading books like the 6th and 7th book of Moses is going to hell, but one day when this man was not in and someone went into his room the 6th and 7th book of Moses was found in his room with a page open. So the question is why is Jesus christ and hell used as a cover up to scare people while those saying such are practicing something else? My answer is that Jesus christ is a Roman empire pagan idol invention and that's why such are common.
God Almighty of the Old Testament is the only True God and His is not the one that produced himself as Jesus christ in the New Testament.
anu3: Yeah bro, I agree. That's why I'm constantly seeking God's grace by humbling self cos I'm not in heaven yet. You don't know my life before and now to see how Jesus has deeply helped me and even spared me from premature death even doctors and some of my relatives gave up or got tired. Think and you might be tempted to take back...
God bless...
People that have tried Jesus with no solution and then gone to a witch doctors can say the same too that it was the witch doctor the saved them.
It is the True God of the Old Testament of the Jews that saved you and not the Roman empire invented pagan idol called Jesus christ you have been made to believe in.
God of the Old Testament is the only True God and He did not get another man's wife pregnant in the New Testament to produce Himself as Jesus Christ, this is a Roman empire pagan belief.
Mark 16:15,18 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 "They will pick up snakes with their hands;”
anu3: Hi bro, I suppose you meant the idol called Xmas was invented by people. But Jesus is God. You don't believe, then I can only that God should give you light before it's eternally too late for anu3.
God bless.
You are worshiping a pagan idol call Jesus christ invented by the Roman empire. You should beg God to exposed this to you before it's eternally too late.
Can you go and pick up a snake?
Mark 16:15,18 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 18 "They will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all”
The true Traditional religion God gave the Jews is Judaism and there is no Xmas in Judaism.
The whole Jesus christ story was a Roman empire invention, that's why the Jews cannot be deceived. It's like saying Jesus was a yoruba man born of a yoruba virgin during the European occupation and the yorubas are saying his is not our Messiah promised in the Old Testament but the Europeans during the occupation are saying his is the messiah of the yorubas!
The records the Jews have is that a Roman soldier was the father of your Jesus!

Only if Thomas, was a real person. The whole story was a Roman empire invention, that's why the Jews cannot be deceived.

His was just following what the invented Jesus christ spoke to them:
Mark 16:18 - 19 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”
19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.
Dtruthspeaker: Dtruthspeaker alias the D-lie-speaker is the one blaspheming Him by just moving around from post to post. Judgement Day is near for Dtruthspeaker alias the D-lie-speaker and his evil.
Dtruthspeaker alias the D-devils-lie-speaker, your Judgement Day is near for in the lake of fire.
orisa37: THE 10 COMMANDMENTS IS A PARAPHRASE OF "LOVE YOURSELVES AS YOURSELVES".
And you have so many different New Testament churches of love others as yourselves springing up here and there so why can they not all love others like themselves and have all churches as one under on central headquarters following Jesus Christ of the New Testament?
But the Old Testament Synagogues today following the 10 Commandments are all one and under one central headquarters following God Almighty of the Old Testament.
Dtruthspeaker: See how completely mad Dtruthspeaker alias D-mad-lie-speaker is? First off point! first, you said God never Said He would send His Son, and I blasphemed that messiah means God can send anyone including His Son, and now I have shifted post to what Judah expects. Off point!
If Dtruthspeaker alias D-mad-lie-speaker were not mad I would know that only normal person looks for the Messiah according to the expectations of Judah and not according to their own invented god, and the invented Jesus was born in the line of David and the gulible are deceived to follow Him.
And the bible did not say that the messiah would come twice. But all these are in of point.
If Dtruthspeaker alias D-mad-lie-speaker Continues blaspheming Him, Dtruthspeaker alias D-mad-lie-speaker will soon see yourself in the lake of fire.
You are the one blaspheming Him, there is no where in the Old Testament that says the Messiah will be the only begotten son of your Roman empire invented god and will be conceived by a virgin after mating with a fake holy spirit. Continue blaspheming Him, as you are already 50% in the lake of fire and soon you will be 100% in the lake of fire and you are looking for the gullible ones to deceive so they can go with you.
Dtruthspeaker: If Dtruthspeaker were reasonable Dtruthspeaker would know that I would send a Messiah means is an anointed king!
If your were reasonable you would know that in Judaism, the Messiah is the expected anointed king of the Davidic line born of a man and woman who would deliver Israel, bring all the Jews back to Israel and make the whole world to follow the true Torah and will only come once. But not your invented messiah, half man half fake holy spirit, that could did not do any of these on his first visit to Israel but only offered himself to be nailed to the cross, which you and others are using to deceive the gullible ones.
Dtruthspeaker: See proof of madness from Dmadspeaker that call himseĺf Dtruthspeaker for every reasonable saw that Jesus's Law is The Commandment and He Commanded "Keep the Commandments".
What were Moses and all the prophets and the elders in the Old Testament and Rabbis today teaching the people. Where did God say in the Old Testament He will send His son to come and start his own new version in the New Testament.
You are the one always showing your màdness all the time.
