Mark 16:17

FaithMiracles and God's intervention

15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;

18 they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well.”

19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
