And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.


And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.


And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.


Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.


Can you observe this kind of character and a great read which requires you to believe before it makes sense to you.


Many don't know that their brains are dead, yes dead in the sense that you are only receiving death nerves, transmission of codes and coordination go through the brain, when your brain isn't transformed by the renewing of your mind by the revealed knowledge of who you really are, the brain DNA code will continue to signal death.


This is what's supposed to have happened to him if the brain were wired death



Swelling of the whole limb is an effect of the venom and can cause compartment syndrome. This is rare. Large amounts of venom usually cause severe pain and severe swelling. You may have trouble breathing, moderate to severe bleeding, and signs of shock after this type of bite.



That's why the natives looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.


They changed their minds - brain, one step forward, not just that, they should go on to observe more and greater things - matters - grace and reality which is reigning now.


You are a god. In the sense that you are divine, supernatural, far above your limited imagination, and beyond your brain, there is something to behold, CHRIST - POWER AND WISDOM OF GOD ALMIGHTY in you is the hope of glory, hallelujah.
