Well, Schraf, after years of having PCs (Pseudo or Pretend Christians) back away smartly, I`m still waiting for a believer to step up for his medicine.

ScriptureRevisited (KJV)
Mark 16:15 And he (Jesus) said unto them (the eleven) 'Go ye (the eleven) into all the world (mankind), and preach the gospel to every creature (mankind).'
​
16:16 'He (mankind) that believeth and is baptised (by one or more of the eleven) shall be saved; but he (mankind) that believeth not shall be damned.'
​
16:17 'And these signs (coming up) shall follow them (baptised mankind) that believe; In my (Jesus) name shall they (baptised mankind) cast out devils; they (baptised mankind)shall speak with new tongues.'
​
16:18 'They (baptised mankind)shall take up serpents; and if they (baptised mankind) drink any deadly thing, it (deadly thing) shall not hurt them (baptised mankind); They (baptised mankind) shall lay hands on the sick, and they (the sick) shall recover.'
​
16:20 And they (the eleven) went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them (the eleven), and confirming the word with signs following ( baptised mankind fulfilling Jesus` words)
​
What`s so difficult to understand about these Scriptures?

Re: ScriptureRevisited (KJV)
Guess you gotta prop up your sect/cult/group/splinter/mainstream any way you can, Mike

Re: if you fed poison to Christians
Far more convincing than halting a KGB clubbing might be God sending a cure for His-created malaria, thus saving 15,000,000 young children a year so they can go on to grow up and experience free will, repent and be saved, Having no choice in the matter sorta destroys the image of a loving god.

Re: Good News and Signs
Hey, LA, no need to wait. The J.W.s say He returned in 1914. Invisibly, of course. He must have been asleep on the job, though, as they have continually made errors and false prophecies--1915--1918--1925--1942--1975. Guess the prophecy business is not as easy as it used to be.

Re: The most wicked sinner!
Hi, DB, I liked the sweet and succinct advice of Pope Innocent III--'Kill them all. God will recognise His own.'

Re: No illnesses?
Hi, PD, well, Redseal is certainly suffering from a surfeit of Scripture.
