In the Bible, prophets were usually also persecuted and hated - until years after their death.  The problem with prophets is their unwavering devotion to a message nobody wants to hear.

William Branham was a prophet.  He preached against organized religion, immorality, and told of coming spiritual and physical destruction to those who did not heed his words.  But more than that, William Branham spoke the Word of God to those caught in modern society.  Like the prophets in the Old Testament, William Branham healed the sick and raised the dead through his prayers.  Like the apostles of the New Testament, William Branham relied on the scriptures, and revelation.  Like Jesus, William Branham discerned the thoughts, future, and past of people he met.
