“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 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.”
Mark 16:15-18 KJV
Mark’s Gospel ended with this command, Jesus said to His disciples, “As you go into all the world, preach openly the wonderful news of the Gospel to the entire human race! Whoever believes the good news and is baptized will be saved, and whoever does not believe the good news will be condemned. And these miracle signs will accompany those who believe: They will drive out demons in the power of My Name. They will speak in tongues. They will be supernaturally protected from snakes and from drinking anything poisonous. And they will lay hands on the sick and heal them.” The Gospel is such wonderful news of the God Who loves mankind more than His own life, the God Who has loved us with an everlasting love and has accepted mankind in His Beloved Son, Jesus. Those who believe and receive, rush to be baptised into Jesus’s death, burial and resurrection. Then He gives the power to trample on snakes and scorpions and even when poison is give, the resurrection life of Christ in us has no effect. Every tormentor leaves and sickness departs when we lay hands on the sick or cast out devils. What power God has given His children who believe so that they set such captives free. Amen!
