SNAKES!!

     In Religion we have been discussing healing and snake handling.  Snake handling is actually found in certain parts of the bible, just maybe not described the way some people seem to take it.  So, what does healing and faith have to do with one another.  As long as you are faithful to God, He will protect you from anything, whether it be bodily or heavenly.  This is only if it is in God's will to do so though.  
     The people in the video, obviously misinterpreted the scriptures.  They took these verses too literally and did not find the deeper meaning.  These scriptures describe how if you are about God's work, He will protect you and keep you from harm.
     I think God tests us by giving us ailments.  Some people get well and some do not.  God has a plan for each of us and we have to have faith that He knows best.  I believe everyone should pray and ask to be healed or pray for strength to endure whatever it may be.  If this does not occur though, they should not lose faith, but just know this is not how God plans to test them.
