==== The Church of Lord Jesus with Signs Following ==== Serpent-handling in north [[Alabama]] and north [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]] originated with James Miller in [[DeKalb County, Alabama|Sand Mountain, Alabama]], at about the same time. Miller apparently developed his belief independently of any knowledge of Hensley's ministry. Whereas Hensley's ministry was [[trinitarian]], the snake-handling churches influenced by Miller's ministry are [[non-trinitarian]], and are broadly known as the Church of Lord Jesus with Signs Following{{Citation needed|date=October 2023}}. This version dominates snake-handling churches north of the [[Appalachians]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cerm.info/bible_studies/Apologetics/snake_handlers.htm|title=Snake Handlers|website=cerm.info|accessdate=29 June 2017|archive-date=22 July 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160722140423/http://www.cerm.info/bible_studies/Apologetics/snake_handlers.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=v |first=Sandy |date=5 February 2010 |url=http://www.deceptioninthechurch.com/handkerchiefs.html |title=The Handkerchief Phenomenon |website=deceptioninthechurch.com |publisher=Apologetics Coordination Team |accessdate=29 June 2017}}</ref>
