You are getting close to being obnoxious.
Wait...you just passed "go".

And the spelling was correct, maybe YOU need grammarly
Oh, it's spelled "Hindusim" not "Hinduism?" I don't think so. You're totally incapable of receiving any correction.

Also, when you begin a sentence use an uppercase letter for the first word not a lowercase letter. Also learn the usage and meaning of ellipsis... ;)

guilty.

i mean, i know perfectly well how to write with proper grammar & punctuation & capitalization et cetera. but both because i like the visual appeal & ((primarily)) because it's just a quirk of personality, i like to refrain from capitalizing anything but God, along with names and pronouns that refer to Him. for a ((probably rarely if ever noticed + recognized as such)) small measure of respect. i run into a quandary, however, when i come to writing someone else's name. i have no issue deferring to capitalize my own name - gleefully, even - but in love i ought to respect others, too. so i usually ((but not always)) capitalize other people's monikers. then there's names of countries etc.. do i offend nationalists, or..?

*shrug* so i'm inconsistent. ((sorry!))
but what i wanted to essentially get across with this post, is that '
maybe a person has some reason not to use *correct* grammatical style' :geek:

2 Kings 18:4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
(NOTE: The children of Israel did burn incense (IDOLATRY) to it)

Numbers 21:
5 And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.
(NOTE The people spake against God & Moses)

6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
(NOTE: The Lord ansers with fiery serpents)

I'll speculate the fiery serpents the Lord sent to punish the peoples rebellion were: Seraphim angels

Isaiah 6:
1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
(Isaiah see's the Lord sitting high on a throne. The train = the Shekinah Glory of the Lord, who clothes Himself with light as with a garment. see Ex 33:22-23).

2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
(Isaiah see's Seraphim angels: primary meaning is the burning ones. Each Seraphims had 6 wings. 2 wings covered their face, 2 thier feet & 2 to fly. The Shekinah Glory of the Lord is so great. Even fiery anglelic beings must cover thenselves in God's presents. When God's command's his mighty angels & they hearkening unto the voice of his word - psalms 103:19-21)

How is this proof my friend?
Proof? I presume nothing. This is a matter for discussion, nothing more nothing less. Though I do favor the proposition that the fiery sepents may indeed be what are described in the link that I posted.

Well, the OP title says "These were the fiery ..." so it appears you were offering the article as proof. ;)

I'm really just waiting for the person I asked to answer the question....thanks
my apologies for a delayed response. i'm not very active here these days.
a former Charasmatic preacher named Andrew Strom is very learned about this subject and has published numerous books on the subject, as well as articles, videos, sermons the whole nine yards. He has a pretty rock solid apologetic against this false Holy Spirit.


We are in the last days. Seducing spirits abound.
Try the spirits just like he told us too.

I don’t think that’s them because The Word of God was The Fiery Serpent on the pole that caused them to live when they looked upon Him.

What does that make the other fiery flying serpents?
perhaps a false Word of God? false doctrines that harm, delivered by seducing spirits masquerading as the Lord?

1 Timothy 4:1
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

Exactly, for all of the above! I think it's perversions of the word of God because the antidote to the perverted word is the true word of God. Look on it and live!

Amen! The true Word of God is solid and exalted. It is radiant and shines like polished bronze in the sunlight. It is lifted up between heaven and earth and all who look on it will live! Amen and amen!

What I would like to know is whether there ever was a literal fiery flying serpent at all, or was that whole story given in symbolic language. What’s your opinion?

If you are looking for the word "kundalini" in the bible you won't find it.
there is however, a plethora of information regarding this, both in text and video form.
try searching "kundalini invades the church" etc

Thanks for the reply :) I was actually looking for information in regards to the fiery serpents that plagued Israel as being the kundalini spirit as you said earlier.. How do we know such is true?

There is no evidence for that claim. The fiery serpents were likely as real as were the quails.

I am convinced that there was a literal fiery flying serpent and that the literal reality of that Old Covenant event was meant as a New Covenant symbolic analogy.

And trust me, there is LOTS more where that came from!

Just look at Passover and the Exodus, both literal events. The Jews are set free from literal Egypt by the blood of the lamb and then pass through water into the wilderness to be lead of God. Christians are set free from spiritual Egypt by the blood of the lamb and then pass through the waters of baptism into the spiritual wilderness to be lead of God.

The wilderness wanderings of Israel contain MANY important lessons for the Church.

Yes I agree, the children in the wilderness are for sure a foreshadow of us. Think about this, only two people of the originals were allowed to enter into the promise land.... only two.

All of them were covered by the blood (saved) and all but two of them wandered around in the wilderness their entire life. What that tells me is that most of Christianity gets it wrong and spend their entire lives wandering around in the wilderness and never enter into his rest.

Another cool thing about that story is the fact that ALL of their children (SECOND BORN) made it in. The bible is an awesome book!
