The Tent Vision and the 3rd Pull
July 4, 2012 Read about the original tent vision, from March 1945, at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Heavenly_Vision. August 13, 2012 What is the “Third Pull”? Some believers think it is the unveiling of the mysteries (1963 and onward), and some think it is speaking things into existence (which is pre-1963). However, the Third Pull is about catching fish. It's Evangelistic. Read more about the vision of the Third Pull and the Second Tent Vision at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Third_Pull
Humble Pie
August 1, 2012 Would anyone like to join us for some Humble Pie? http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Humble_Pie August 30, 2012 To anyone who has visited Believethesign.com in the past, please read our apology at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Humble_Pie October 17, 2012 Jesus said, "first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye." (Matthew 7:5 ESV). http://en.believethesign.com/index.php/Humble_Pie October 19, 2012 Why did we change the website? - The History of Believe The Sign.

Thus Saith The Lord
November 6, 2012 What happens when you give William Branham's teachings the Word Test? (Please watch at your own risk as this video exposes a crack in the "Thus Saith The Lord" foundation of the Message). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq1lF8GUfng&feature=plcp
The Bridge Vision
August 8, 2012 Now if you say to yourselves, ‘How can we tell that a message is not from the LORD?’ — whenever a prophet speaks in my name and the prediction is not fulfilled, then I have not spoken it; the prophet has presumed to speak it, so you need not fear him.” (Dt 18:21–22) Based on current information, this prophecy which he specifically identifies as one that did not fail, in fact, failed completely. If you have any evidence of the accident as William Branham describes it, we would appreciate being able to update this article. http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=George_Rogers_Clark_Memorial_Bridge October 2, 2012 Were the deaths of 16 men in a construction accident on the Municipal Bridge foretold by a young boy named William Branham 22 years before it happened? Here are the facts - http://youtu.be/QPxLLO61lE4
Conduct
August 9, 2012 I had assumed that people posting here were Christians or were at least capable of civilized conduct. My bad! Be gracious in your speech. The goal is to bring out the best in others in a conversation, not put them down, not cut them out. (Col 4:6 The Message) This is a place for discussion, not a place to fight and be rude. Trolling is not permitted. Personal attacks on people will not be permitted. I have just had to ban someone, which is not what I wanted to do. But inappropriate comments may result in a person being banned from this discussion without warning. September 4, 2012 Ministers have told their congregations that they shouldn't fellowship with us. Yet we are still Christians. While we are still loved by the Lord Jesus Christ, some that believe that they represent Him here on earth seem not to be willing to extend any love toward us. Is this how true Christians should act? How do you treat people who have been traumatized by spiritual abuse? While we definitely do not agree with everything in the following post, there are some things in it that should make real Christians in the message think about how they treat people who have left the message. Are there any of you out there? http://paradiserecovered.com/we-are-spiritual-abuse-survivors/ November 12, 2012 William Branham talked about his hunting ethics in the sermon "The 6th Seal" (March 23, 1963), and he set a very high standard when he said: "When I was standing out on the field out yonder, in where I hunt and things like that, and see where them white hunters come out there and shoot them deer and cut a hindquarters off of it and sometimes kill eight or ten little does and leave them laying there, and their fawns running around trying to find their mammy, and you mean that's sportsmanship? That's pure murder in my book. (6th Seal, March 23, 1963) "Buffalo Bill and them plainsmen had shot off all them buffaloes, forty, fifty in an afternoon. They know when they ridded that, they got rid of the Indian. Oh, my, a stain on the flag the way they treated them Indians." (6th Seal, March 23, 1963) Page 324 of Book 6 of 'Supernatural: The Life of William Branham' includes a footnote (#202) in reference to William Branham's 1965 hunting trip to Africa, which says: "William Branham couldn't display any animals from his safari in Africa. He had left his 33 hunting trophies at the airport in Beira, Mozambique, with instructions for his air carrier to fly them back to the United States. Unfortunately, the trophies never arrived..." So in the three weeks that William Branham hunted in Mozambique, he shot 33 animals (including zebra and buffalo). He did not go to eat the meat. He was on a safari for sport, and was getting the animals stuffed for return to America. When is the last time you shot 33 large game animals in 21 days? William Branham did in Africa what he accused the white man of doing in America. So is this the mystery behind "The 6th Seal"? http://en.believethesign.com/index.php/Photo_Gallery#William_Branham_in_Africa
Sunset Mountain and the Cloud
August 10, 2012 The Cloud - What is fact and what is fiction? How do we tell the difference?http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=The_Cloud October 1, 2012 Do we twist Christ to fit our message? And then you turn that picture sideways, if you've got Look Magazine or Life Magazine. Turn it sideways. There He is, just perfectly, Hoffman's Head of Christ, looking right down where I was standing; there It is in the magazine! How many's ever seen It? Course, you've all seen. There, looking right back, proved exactly the revelation was correct. (William Branham, November 26, 1965) October 31, 2012 The May 1963 Life magazine article about the cloud states that it was 26 miles up, and that no water droplets exist at that height. But the article was wrong. Noctilucent clouds can even form at a height of over 50 miles. In March 2012, Nasa launched five rockets off the east coast of the USA to create some of these clouds. These clouds formed rings that look like the May 1963 Life magazine photo. http://www.gizmag.com/nasa-tracer-rockets-form-ringed-clouds-at-the-edge-of-space/21972/pictures#12
The Seven Visions of 1933
August 11, 2012 Did you know that the US started World War 2? Did you know that Germany didn't pick on the US but the US picked on Germany? Wasn't it the attack on Pearl Harbor that brought the US into World War 2? Not if you believe the prophecy of William Branham. http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Franklin_D._Roosevelt August 24, 2012 William Branham wrote about Mussolini in his book of prophecies, and retold this prophecy at least 15 times between 1953 and 1964. We expected this prophecy to be consistent throughout this 11 year period (as it was written down), but found this was not the case. You can read about the changes to this prophecy over time at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Mussolini_invades_Ethiopia September 17, 2012 William Branham said that his 1933 visions were written down on a piece of old yellow paper. Yet when he retold the visions, they would change and become more specific over time. In 1953, he said he had a vision of egg-shaped cars (no mention of cars driving themselves). By 1961 he said the vision was of a glass-topped, egg-shaped car with a family inside playing cards. This description is very similar to an add published by Newsweek in 1956, which may have been why William Branham said in 1960 "They've already got that out; I seen it here not long ago." Read more at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Driverless_Cars September 29, 2012 William Branham said that the morality of American women would decline, and that this was a prophecy he saw in 1933. Although William Branham mentioned the 1933 vision many times during his sermons, he never mentioned the part about morality until 1964 when he said he saw the prophecy fulfilled in a Life Magazine photograph. ~ http://en.believethesign.com/index.php/Morality October 27, 2012 William Branham modified the details of his visions over time. Sometimes he made significant changes within a week. Here is one example and we ask you, "Why would he do this"? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3kODHysAdY&feature=plcp
William Branham the Evangelist
August 12,2012 William Branham received the commission, “Do the Work of an Evangelist”, the morning he laid the cornerstone for the Branham Tabernacle in June 1933. In June 1962, William Branham said, “If He's called me to be [an] evangelist, I cannot be a prophet. Now, you get what I mean? I don't know what to do.” After going into the desert and coming back and preaching the seven seals, a voice spoke to him and said, “Return! Did not I tell you, in the beginning, to do the work of an evangelist?” Read William Branham’s life story with the forgotten visions, and a focus on his evangelistic purpose at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=William_Branham
Quotes & Reference Material
August 14, 2012 "Trust no one, not even the finest saint who ever walked this earth, ignore him, if he hinders your sight of Jesus Christ." - Oswald Chambers August 15, 2012 “The chief danger of the 20th century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, heaven without hell.” - William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army September 13, 2012 "Instead of asking yourself whether you believe or not, ask yourself whether you have, this day, done one thing because He said, Do it! or once abstained because He said, Do not do it! It is simply absurd to say you believe, or even want to believe, in Him, if you do not do anything He tells you." - George Macdonald September 23, 2012 Joshua Keith was a minister in the message for seven years. The following is a video that he recently produced that asks a number of interesting questions - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BssYoPyF-yA September 25, 2012 GOD MEANT IT for GOOD! In Pharaoh's court stood Jacob - an old man of 130 years of age - and Joseph, his lost son, rushed to embrace him. As it turned out, Joseph was second in command over all of Egypt. Everywhere Jacob went with his son - in the palace, through the streets in his chariot - people bowed to Joseph in respect and awe (see Genesis 46 and 47). When Pharaoh asked Jacob how old he was, he answered, "The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been" (Genesis 47:9). The Hebrew reads, "Few and sorrowful have my days been." In short: "I've seen a lot of suffering." Yet, was it worth it? Yes, absolutely! Jacob and his family had been delivered from the famine. All seventy members of his clan were now safe from harm, planted in the richest farmland in Egypt. Jacob's son was on the throne and they had all the food they could eat. Jacob - a man with a contrite heart - could look back and say, "When my brother Esau threatened me, it seemed my life was over but God brought me out. My Lord was there the whole time. When Laban tried to destroy me, God blessed and delivered me. Furthermore, the Lord delivered my wife, Rachel, and my family from the perils of idolatry. "I was victorious over all my enemies. None of them ever rose up to challenge me. I lived to see my seed multiply and prosper - the beginnings of a great nation. I lived to walk in the midst of my grandchildren, even my great-great-grandchildren. And now my sons will be the patriarchs of Israel, leaders over their own tribes. Not a word God told me in the beginning has ever failed. My Lord has kept His every word to me." And, beloved, so will He be with us today! - David Wilkerson. September 30, 2012 What is important is not the quality of your faith but the object of your faith (35 minute mark in the video below). Our faith is not in a man, but in Jesus Christ. http://vimeo.com/22669720 October 30, 2012 "It is said that there was a man who had a poultry farm. And that he raised chickens for the market. And one day in one of his broods he discovered a strange looking bird that was very much unlike the other chickens on the yard. …And then one day a man who knew eagles when he saw them, came along and saw that little eagle walking in the yard. And he said to his friend, “Do you know that you have an eagle here?” The man said, “Well, I didn’t really know it. But I knew he was different from the other chickens. And I knew that his ways were different. And I knew that his habits were different…” But the man said, “Yes, you have an eagle here on your yard. And what you ought to do is build a cage. After while when he is older he’s going to get tired of the ground… “ And after a while he outgrew that one day and then he had to build another cage. So one day when the eagle had gotten grown...and he began to get restless in the cage. Yes he did. He began to walk around and be uneasy. Why he heard noises in the air. A flock of eagles flew over and he heard their voices. And though he’d never been around eagles, there was something about that voice that he heard that moved down in him, and made him dissatisfied. …He went there and opened the door. Yes. The eagle walked out, yes, spread his wings…and he flew up a little higher and went to the barnyard. And, yes, he set there for a while. He wiggled up a little higher and flew in yonder’s tree. Yes. And then he wiggled up a little higher and flew to yonder’s mountain. Yes. Yes! Yes. One of these days, one of these days. My soul is an eagle in the cage that the Lord has made for me. My soul, my soul, my soul is caged in, in this old body, yes it is, and one of these days the man who made the cage will open the door and let my soul go. Yes he will. You ought to be able to see me take the wings of my soul." ~Bishop C.L. Franklin (the father of Aretha Franklin) ~ c. 1953
Malachi 4
August 14, 2012 We have received a number of emails that question: If William Branham is not the fulfillment of Mal 4:5, then who is? Here are some thoughts on the issue - http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=The_Fulfillment_of_Malachi_4%3A5
Strange Doctrine
August 15, 2012 Do you know the three high words of the Bible that no mortal on earth knew except William Branham? Did you know that he had to say them in order for people to be healed? What are these secret words that no mortal on earth knows? See our answer to the reader that asked this question at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Three_holy_words August 21, 2012 Is it OK for guys to wear shorts? We have a surprise picture in this article of someone wearing shorts. Can you guess who it is? It should help you with the answer to this question. (Hint: It's not George Washington although he did wear short pants). http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Shorts September 6, 2012 In 1965 William Branham said that the world was square, based on Rev. 7:1 and what he read in a newspaper article. In the past, we would have disregarded this as a "human error". However, VOG teaches this to message children as an "amazing and interesting fact" in the "Did you know?" blog on their website at http://youngfoundations.org/20096620_Did_You_Know_18 . Our question is, why should someone listen to VOG when they teach about William Branham or how to get to heaven, if they can't be honest with facts? If you believe the world is square because the Bible says it has four corners, please explain Leviticus 19:27. September 24, 2012 Someone posted the question "what doctrine was wrongly interpreted and preached by William Branham?" I would also add, "what doctrine was rightly preached by William Branham? Please limit responses to one doctrine and two scriptures explaining why or why not, and mark your post with a + or -. Here's a start: + Healing (Isaiah 53:5 "...with his stripes we are healed" and Mark 16:18 "...they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.") - There has never been two major prophets on the scene at one time. (Zephaniah & Jeremiah, Daniel & Ezekiel) October 15, 2012 Are all angels men? Or are there also women angels? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-LoLrXTi5A October 21, 2012 William Branham preached very strongly against makeup. This doctrine continues in message churches, but it is not consistent between Believers because William Branham flip-flopped on this topic: "“Listen, there was only one women in the Bible ever painted her face, and that was Jezebel. God fed her to the dogs for doing it. Now, when you see a woman with a lot of paint on, say, ‘How do, Miss Dog meat?’ That's exactly what it was in the Bible.” (1961, Abraham’s Covenant). “Well, there's nothing in the Bible to say for you not to wear makeup.” (1962, Forsaking All) "Women, there was only one woman in the Bible that ever painted her face, and that was Jezebel. And God fed her to the dogs. So if you see a woman wearing that, you can say, "How do you do, Miss Dogmeat?" (1962, A Testimony on the Sea) “Now, a lot of you Pentecostal women won't wear makeup. There's nothing in the Bible about that.” (1962, Confirmation of the Commission) “Paint? There's only one women in the Bible ever painted her face, and that was Jezebel. And God fed her to the dogs. So you see what that would be, common dog meat.” (1963, The World is Falling Appart) It is very disturbing that he could take a doctrine that has no basis in the Bible (by his own admission) and call women "dog meat". November 10, 2012 William Branham taught that “all that you ever loved, and all that ever loved you” is waiting for you as a reward in heaven. This raises one problem. The Bible records that Jesus loved the Rich Young Ruler (Mark 10:21). Jesus knew that the young man was trying to get to heaven by works, but one short conversation exposed the weakness of his heart. The man walked away sad after Jesus said, "take up the cross, and follow me". But Jesus had not yet gone to the cross. He had not yet been an example for this young man to follow. Jesus loved the Rich Young Ruler - this man who had followed the schoolmaster of the law straight to Christ - and then went and died for him! But William Branham preached that the rich young ruler ended up in hell. How could William Branham preach that his own love could take anyone to heaven, and then teach that Jesus’ love was not sufficient to do this? In the Bible, there is no record that the rich man in hell was the same young man that questioned Jesus. Perhaps the Rich Young Ruler's name was Joses (Acts 4:36), but that is speculation. One thing is for certain: there was a reason that Jesus loved him…because only God sees the heart. As message believers, I think we got the story of the Rich Young Ruler all wrong.
Mixing Law and Grace
August 17, 2012 William Branham said that Jesus came to magnify the law. Is this true? Why was it that on the day that the Law was given 3,000 people died but on the same day, the day of Pentecost, 3,000 people came to life when the church was born? Find out the answers at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Mixing_Law_and_Grace September 20, 2012 Paul says, "The law is spiritual." What does that mean? If the law were physical, then it could be satisfied by works, but since it is spiritual, no one can satisfy it unless everything he does springs from the depths of the heart. But no one can give such a heart except the Spirit of God, who makes the person be like the law, so that he actually conceives a heartfelt longing for the law and henceforward does everything, not through fear or coercion, but from a free heart. Such a law is spiritual since it can only be loved and fulfilled by such a heart and such a spirit. If the Spirit is not in the heart, then there remains sin, aversion and enmity against the law, which in itself is good, just and holy. How can anybody prepare himself for good by means of works if he does no good work except with aversion and constraint in his heart? How can such a work please God, if it proceeds from an averse and unwilling heart? It is the Holy Spirit, however, who puts such eagerness of unconstrained love into the heart. But the Spirit is given only in, with, and through faith in Jesus Christ. So, too, faith comes only through the word of God, the Gospel, that preaches Christ: how he is both Son of God and man, how he died and rose for our sake. That is why faith alone makes someone just and fulfills the law; faith it is that brings the Holy Spirit through the merits of Christ. The Spirit, in turn, renders the heart glad and free, as the law demands. Then good works proceed from faith itself. The question and answers above are all taken from the Preface to Romans, by Martin Luther. October 22, 2012 Did the Apostle Paul and William Branham teach the same thing about what it means to fall from grace? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGn5512IAIw&feature=plcp
Eyewitnesses
August 19, 2012 You can still find great eyewitness testimonies of people who were in William Branham's meetings on believethesign. Ern Baxter is one person who saw the "sign in the hand", and heard the "word of knowledge". Read his own words at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Ern_Baxter August 23, 2012 By posting video testimonies, you can hear what happened directly from the people who were present in William Branham's foreign meetings. One great example is the following interview of a man who sat on the platform during William Branham's India meetings: http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Brother_Marathai
Prophecies
August 31, 2012 William Branham said that man would never make it to the moon. Neil Armstrong, who recently died, made it to the moon in 1969, well before 1977. We have observed that many message believers have become conspiracy theorists, believing that NASA faked the moon landings, to explain away this statement. http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Man_and_the_moon September 11, 2012 What is the importance of an "Eagle Ministry"? You will probably still find a reference to Prophets being represented by Eagles on believethesign somewhere, but here's some correction to that: The KJV Bible uses the world "Eagle" 34 times. Some of these verses refer to vultures, not eagles (Prov 30:17, Micah 1:16, and Luke 17:37). One example is, "Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather." (Matt 24:28, ESV) Some of these refer to the 'unclean' animals that were not kosher to eat (Lev 11:13 & 18 and Deut 14:12 & 17). Some of these refer to 'bad eagles' (Jer 4:13, Lam 4:19, Ezek 17, Hos 8:1, Obadiah 1:4). The rest refer to angels, and identifying people of strength (like Jonathan and Saul). So it appears that an eagle is a type of fierce swiftness and strength, not of prophetic wisdom or vision. Other than King Saul, we could not find a prophet or seer that was likened to an Eagle. September 21, 2012 Does anyone have thoughts on California and the prophecy that would occur before Billy Paul was an old man? October 18, 2012 William Branham said, “I want you to believe that I am God’s prophet” (1951, As I was with Moses), "I'm not a prophet" (1955, Seal of the Antichrist) “…I am your prophet” (1961, Abraham’s Grace Covenant), and "I never said I was a prophet" (1963, Three Kinds of Believers). November 1, 2012 Listen to what William Branham had to say about whether he was a prophet or not, and the importance of proclaiming a certain sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ks3rchVQEWk&feature=plcp
Scriptures and Bible Studies
September 1, 2012 Let brotherly love continue. (Hebrews 13:1) September 16, 2012 Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don’t forget my words or turn away from them. Don’t turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. (Proverbs 4:5-7 NLT) October 7, 2012 Believe and know the truth. Comprehend with all saints what is…the love of Christ. Be not children in understanding. Discern both good and evil. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God…and it shall be given him. Identify a tree by its fruit. Recognize the melody. See that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin. Understand and experience all the good things we have in Christ. And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. (Excerpts from 1 Timothy 4:3b, Ephesians 3:18 & 19, 1 Corinthians 14:20, Hebrews 5:14, James 1:5 (KJV), and Romans 2:4, 1 Corinthains 14:7, Philemon 1:6 (NLT). 1 John 5:20.) Octobber 9, 2012 In Jeremiah Chapter 34, the sons of Jonadab disobeyed the prophet. As a result, they were blessed by Jeremiah. In 2 Chronicles 26:17, Azariah the priest withstood Uzziah, a king who up until that point had done everything right in the sight of the Lord. These are some examples of people in the Bible who God called to stand against people he loved. These people were able to do this because they valued their relationship with God more than the opinions of spiritual people with important offices. Standing for the truth is what God calls all of us to do. "Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth" (Ephesians 6:4) Octobber 10, 2012 Do you know the story of Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron? In Exodus 24:10 they "saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness." Then in Numbers 3:4 Nadab and Abihu are killed with fire from heaven when they begin to "invent" their own form of worship. Seeing angels or even God himself does not give anyone the license to deviate from God's plan. And what is God's will? "that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God." (1 Peter2:15b-16) Octobber 14, 2012 Cry out for insight, and ask for understanding. Search for them as you would for silver; seek them like hidden treasures. Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord, and you will gain knowledge of God. For the Lord grants wisdom! From his mouth come knowledge and understanding. (Proverbs 2:3-6) (Jesus said) To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them. (Matthew 13:12) October 25, 2012 "He saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit." Titus 3:5 "I am writing these things to warn you about those who want to lead you astray. But you have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true—it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ." 1 John 2:26-27 October 25, 2012 "I will take you to be my people, and I will be your God, and you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians." (Exodus 6:6 ESV) "...we will say no more, ‘Our God,’ to the work of our hands. In you the orphan finds mercy. 'I will heal their apostasy; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them.' " (Hosea 14:3b, 4 ESV) "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9 ESV) November 3, 2012 Do you understand why Jesus came the first time, and why he is coming back the second time? Do you understand what salvation means, and when it is manifest? "So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." (Hebrews 9:28) "Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation..." (1 Peter 1:5) "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth..." (Romans 1:16) "...for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed." (Romans 13:11) "...and for an helmet, the hope of salvation." (1 Thess 5:8) "And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;" (Hebrews 5:8) November 9, 2012 "Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God." Job 13:3 "I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness" Ecclesiastes 7:25 “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” Isaiah 1:18 KJV "And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks." Acts 18:4 "And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee." Acts 24:25

September 7, 2012 In 2 Kings 18:4, King Hezekiah destroyed the last remnant of Moses' healing ministry - the brass serpent. Hezekiah called it Nehushtan, which means 'piece of of brass'. Yet he was commended for doing what was right in the sight of the LORD. He did this because people had taken a prophet's message, and created an idol. But, Hezekiah did not bring disrepute to Moses' ministry when he did this. Likewise, if we say comments that challenge your understanding of William Branham's ministry, please don't interpret this as an attack on William Branham. What people need today is Jesus Christ, and not some historic relic of a healing ministry. If you think we are joking, consider that VGR used to sell a "memorabilia box" that included a piece of "the same floor that the Angel of the Lord stood upon when he revealed the Seven Seals". I would call that a 'piece of wood'. If you have one, get rid of it.

September 9, 2012 Here's an article that should take your breath away: http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Poo_in_the_Bible September 18, 2012 William Branham preached on the "Seven Compound Names of Jehovah" many times. These names are Jehovah-Jireh, Rapha, Nissi, Shalom, Ra'ah, Tzidkenu, and Shammah. However, there are other compound names of Jehovah that William Branham never mentioned, such as Jehovah-Avinu, Mekaddishkem, Tseva'ot, Seh'lah, 'Asenu, 'Ori and more. You can learn more about these names at http://en.believethesign.com/index.php?title=Jehovah

November 8, 2012 Join us in making a positive confession! (Just cut and paste the following into the comment section) "When I say I am a believer, I mean that I believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for my sin, and that God raised him from the dead. I do not put any hope of salvation or heavenly position in William Branham, or any other person who claims to be a prophet. The Holy Spirit is greater than the spirit of Elijah, and my hope is in Christ and not man."
