一女基督徒因相信圣经而被毒蛇咬死

高潮

琳达朗( Linda F. Long)参加「东伦敦至善论派会」( East London Holiness Church)。该教会相信圣经说信耶稣的人能拿蛇而不受害，便进行仪式让教徒用手拿毒蛇。结果一个女教徒被咬伤，中毒身亡。又一因盲信圣经引起的悲剧！

肇事经文：

马可福音
16:17 信的人必有神蹟随着他们．就是奉我的名赶鬼．说新方言．
16:18 手能拿蛇．若喝了甚麽毒物、也必不受害．手按病人、病人就必好了。

Snake handling is based on a passage in the Bible that says a sign of a true believer is the power to "take up serpents" without being harmed.

说新方言呢？怎么从来没听说过基督徒特别擅长说新方言？
