@@kathleendickerson9602BIG TIME!!! If the Serpents would've hauled off, and bit one or two of these morons, I wouldn't have blamed 'em one single bit! These people are evil to the core, as far as I'm concerned. They take The Bible, twist the Scriptures to suit them, and lie and deceive others into following their damnable ways! The leaders of these Cults are purposefully putting people in harm's way, and, so far, a good many people have died, either through Snake Venom, or through drinking Strychnine! What are these people even THINKING?!? Of course, "Religious Nutsery" abides in a good many of them. I guess some people will do anything to be "Accepted" by others... even if it means putting their lives on the line! If that's what life is about, then I'm glad that I'm pretty much alone!
All these serpent handling churches have one thing in common. And this is not only the snakes, it´s the MUSIC! There are a handful videos/docos of serpent handling churches and they all have that great music, no matter which church they portrayed. I wished we had such a music in our churches here in Europe.
Rock'n'Roll was born in Pentecostal/Holiness churches. Doesn't even need serpents, but it makes a good show, for sure. On the other side, our European church music was as influential back then and even today JS Bach is still played. It's just not as cool :).
I wish to GOD that Jesus would let me find a church like this in Maryland . Most churches across this world would make Jesus sick and vomit it out . They believe the Bible . InJesus Name
It was the devil. Most of these type churches are composed of mental patients.Some of the most religious people i knew from my child hood are now open devil worship. Common for these type people to have history of going to mental hospital. I was one of the few who could sit around the loud music and screaming just watching and not letting it affect me. Because i knew how these same people was out side church. It is no different as any other show. And it is all a show.
@@cliffclark6441 they believe as deeply as you believe. They just worship differently. There are many documentaries and interviews out there. Some try to paint them as freaks, some portray them as firm believers. archive.org/details/thejoloserpenthandlers
I used to do that rattler stomp hoedown back in the days of heavy drinking and drugs but since the rummatiz set in from all those bites I just don't get out much anymore
@@ronaldshank7589…No, that’s not right. I have been to similar churches minus the snakes. They are overwhelmingly good, honest hardworking people, very sincere. Because you worship (if you worship at all) differently, that does not give you the right to criticize them. Freedom of religion, remember?????
People don’t worship the lord like this anymore except in very few churches in Tennessee and and the Appalachia area. When the Holy Ghost touches you, it’s something you’ll never forget it.
Umm..... YIKES!!! That was the Snake Handler's Melody, live from a "Church", somewhere in the Good Old U. S. of A...., and You heard it here first, from Radio Station W. R. W. S!!!
Christians who handle venomous snakes are incorrect in their interpretation of Mark 16:18. That verse does not command or suggest that we literally handle venomous snakes! It is a metaphor of God's divine protection in the context of danger. These snake handling Christians are wrong and do not understand exegesis or God's word.
If it is a misinterpretation of the bible, then it's the least harmful (to others). I'll take a snake handler over a snake oil salesman any day. Malicious self-serving freaks like Kenneth Copeland, Jim Baker, Joel Osteen, or the demon Greg Locke are the real problem, not marginalized communities from some of the poorest states, who took two verses of the bible too literally. This is just my opinion as an agnostic non-American :). I love their music. That's the main reason for posting this, but I'm interested in people's opinions, so thanks for leaving a comment. Check out the interview with Pastor Chris Wolford whose brother got killed by a venomous snake. ua-cam.com/video/JZUz_S8EGxE/v-deo.html - cheers.
And i remember how they would hit the floor wallow around dress up to there waist and some had no panties on. Used to love the show,never knew what would happen. I was in church one day and this old woman died, no kidding she was siting there dead. They kept on dancing. Seemed like for ever before any one noticed she had died. When they did ever one panicked.
I have a massive collection of 1920s through 1930's 78rpm records. I'm sure this is gonna be a very old gospel song. It's probably on a lot of depression and pre depression Era records. By the way, I've seen these churches face to face. There used to be one north of Houston Texas in a town called Cleveland, Texas. Its something you gotta see for yourself.
I've checked with 3 of the best discographers in the US and noone knows what song this is. I'm gonna send this link to some churches over in Appalachia and ask them.
@@travisc5258 It's hard to recognize any lyrics, isn't it? (I'm not a native English speaker so there is that :)). Please let me know if you find out more. The book “Them That Believe.” The Power and Meaning of the Christian Serpent-Handling Tradition by Hood and Williamson has a dedicated chapter about the music and they write: "We have found that most serpent-handling churches use and maintain handwritten or typewritten songbooks that contain songs handed down from generation to generation." Regarding the music in general, there is at least one serpent handler who published 3 records in the 70s, it's Thomas Coots, he founded the church in Middlesborro, KY: folk-visions.com/serpent-handling/connecting-dots-the-music-of-serpent-handlers-the-coots-duo-and-the-coots-duet/

When the practice first started they used de fanged snakes. Today the smart ones milk the snakes or at least prob them to get them to strike and release venom before handling. It is like any other show it can be dangers.
That is Animal abuse!! I don't like snakes i would never pick one up thin throw it across the room ! I would bite all of them if i was a snake they deserve it
Acts2.38-2.39 Then Peter said unto them repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ f😢or the Re mission of sins and you shall we see the gift of the Holy ghost . For the promise is unto you and to your children and to all who are far off even as many as the Lord of God.
@@dyingforbadmusic I haven't a clue who they are, bit I'm sure when I die it will not be from a snake bite, here in the UK, we only have the grass snake and adder I have enough sense to leave them be, a can understand the fantastic music they sing as its very uplifting, but picking up poisonous snakes is madness, they need a nice room and straight jackets to protect them from themselves, were all entitled to our view's, were not entitled to be cruel to snakes on the mad manner that they handle the poor creatures
I'm not an Atheist, but I, too, am glad that I have good common sense! I used to be in the Pentecostal Movement, but the worst thing I ever saw, was two guys at the Altar, crawling around on their hands and knees, barking like dogs. That was bad enough for me!

Did the guy get bit?
Yes, Pastor Elza O. Preast got bit. He died in 2003.
Well they weren't morbidly obese back then....
Higher consumption of high-fructose corn syrup started in the eighties. That might be one reason.
The strychnine diet
I was thinking the same thing. I saw a show about contemporary snake handlers and they were almost all like 100 pounds overweight.
Must've been all that dancin' around, keepin' 'em thin!
I wonder what Jung would have to say about the snake handlers?
I'm not ashamed of it.
Amen, me either! Very proud of my up bringing!
