Shocking moment a Kentucky snake-handling preacher is bitten and has to be carried from his church, four years after his pastor father was killed by a rattlesnake


This is the startling moment a controversial American pastor, whose father was killed after being bitten by a snake, is himself attacked by a serpent.
Cody Coots is the pastor at the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus’ Name church in Middlesboro, Kentucky - one of America’s last remaining snake-handling churches.
During his sermon, Pastor Coots can be seen handling a snake as he preaches to his congregation.

One would think he had built up a certain amount of immunity from the venom having been bitten so many times in the past.

I'm inclined to say something about being a slow learner. But I wouldn't want to be uncharitable. Sigh.

If we subtracted the clueless idiocies from religion, the clueless idiocies from politics, and the clueless idiocies from pride about who has the longer manhood, we might start to seem like tolerable critters.

Heard a story about a band that went to play at a church one Sunday. About 20 minutes into the service they pulled out some snakes. The guitarists looked at the drummer and asked if he saw a back door. The drummer replied: No, where do you reckon they want one?"

What part of, 'You must not test the LORD your God.' do they not understand?

More than that, 'power over serpents and scorpions' is not talking about animals...

Who are you to tell them what Gawd is saying or not saying to them?

Church should be about the glorification of God. By doing this snake nonsense they are attempting to glorify themselves. That is, they are saying in effect, 'Look how righteous I am that I can do this! Surely I have the blessing of God.'

So in this same logic, if the guy got bit it must mean that he has sinned, and has fallen short of the blessing of God.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.
