 Question, what did Jesus mean in Mark 16-18 when he said that those who believe would handle serpents? Remember this, it's important to always interpret the unclear passages of scripture with the clear passages of scripture. In Luke 10-19 Jesus said, Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Clearly, when Jesus refers to snakes and scorpions, he's talking about demonic power. So simply put, those who believe are given dominion power and authority over demonic power.
