DOCTRINAL DIVISION NO.1 : William Branham : Return Ministry
(Heretical Article No. 36)
The first doctrinal division out of these five, I will identify.
There was a group that so believed Brother Branham and the third
part of his ministry to be fulfilled, that when he died they
brought up a resurrection doctrine immediately. That was the
first doctrine that went out. Do you know why they brought that
up? Do you know why they brought up a resurrection doctrine?
Because they had believed that the ministry of Brother Branham
was oncompleted. The White Horse was supposed to ride and the
White Eagle was supposed to fly. Don't you see what I am saying?
And a Bride's Revival was supposed to be, and Speak the Word
ministry was supposed to be demonstrated.
So now, that took a course that involved prominent men, great
men, some elected children. On account of that doctrine, people
went down to his grave on Easter Sunday hoping for his
resurrection. That was a main stream of doctrine. Now, I am
saying again, why was a resurrection doctrine made? It was made
because they believed that Brother Branham's Ministry was
incompleted, and those things were to be fulfilled including the
Seven Thunders Revelation, and those things were to be
fulfilled, when he comes back from the grave in a private
resurrection. As the years passed by, this doctrine was changed
to forty days before the Rapture.
"The Bride is awaiting the resurrection Of Brother Branham Who
will come forth in his new ministry, the third pull and the seven
thunders for the rapture of the church and to give a last witness
to lost souls."
John 5:28 - "Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming in the
which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice."
2Timothy 2:15 - 18 - "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a
workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word
of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will
increase unto more ungodliness. And their word will eat as doth a
canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; Who concerning the
truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already;
and overthrow the faith of some."
This doctrine is contrary to the Word of God and the holiness
message of William Branham, God's Elijah of Malachi 4:5&6. What
gave rise to this heretical Resurrection doctrine is the fact
that the Ministry of William Branham was incomplete even as Moses
did not complete his mission. His unfinished Ministry included
the Tent Vision, the White Horse rider, the white eagle, the
third pull, the Joshua Commission, the revealing of the seven
thunders and other Visions. Many arose having this unscriptural
Resurrection vision. This New Ministry also concerns, the Vision
of the 'dark people' in Old Mexico, Three hundred thousand souls
to be saved in Durban, South Africa and the Vision of having one
of the greatest meetings in India since Pentecost.
Immediately after the death and even before he was buried there
arose rumors and speculations that Brother Branham will arise
from the dead to fulfill his unfinished ministry. These rumors
and speculations conceived, were propagated by several people.
Some expected his resurrection in three days, others in forty
days and some on Easter Sunday of 1966, and in the years that
followed, especially 1977, and continued up to date. It was
rumored that an airplane painted white which was supposed to be
the White Eagle and White Horse, awaited the resurrection of
Brother Branham to fly him around the World. Likewise a great
tent was said to be prepared in which he would conduct his
meetings thus fulfilling the Tent Vision. He was expected to
bring back from the grave the secret of total redemption ,
rapturing faith and power of translation for the rapture. He was
to come back with the revelation of the Seventh Seal since it was
the resurrection seal that held the seven thunders for rapturing
faith. Since the Third Pull is the same Ministry, the “Speak the
Word” Ministry is to be demonstrated in its fullness and witness
to the total lost. Meanwhile the Bride awaits the resurrection of
the Prophet, he is witnessing to the Souls in Prison, in the
regions of the lost, even like Christ did before his
resurrection. (Peter 3).
Some who embraced this doctrine of a private resurrection for
Brother Branham abandoned their beliefs after three days and
forty days respectively. Others, who continued, expected his
resurrection at Easter Sunday of each year, even congregating at
his grave during that time.
One of the persons to project such a doctrine of the resurrection
of Brother Branham to continue his Ministry was a 'learned
theologian', close to him, who edited and compiled the
“Exposition of the Seven Church Ages” Book.
Quoting from "Acts of the Prophet" by Pearry Green:
"Brother Branham had spoken highly of Brother Vayle and had even
said that if you wanted to know what he believed, just ask
Brother Vayle. He stands as a beacon to Brother Branham's
message, shedding light from the Scriptures. It was midnight when
I arrived at Brother Vayle's room and got him out of bed. I
implored him to help me understand. "I'm just like you," he
answered, "I don't understand either." he went over the visions,
including the tent vision. "Unless God has cut the work short,"
he said, "He's got to rise." (Last Moments, page 155)
The writer of the "Acts of the Prophet" also believed in the
resurrection of William Branham and even indicated in the
affirmative to the United Press International (UPI), Louisville.
Quoting a telephone conversation between the writer and a
representative of the UPI.
"Aren't you people expecting William Branham to rise on Easter
morning?"
The bluntness of his question shook me a little, but I managed a
careful answer, "Well sir, there may be some that believe that.
What faith are you?
"Baptist," came the reply.
"Don't you believe in the resurrection?" I countered. "Don't you
believe in the second coming of the Lord?"
"Yes sir," he admitted.
"Well, so do we," I said.
His next question was designed to put words in my mouth,
"Do you think it could take place in the morning?"
"Sir, I said innocently, "I wouldn't be a bit surprised when it
would happen." (Page 163-164)
" At each stage of the journey, I found myself as close to the
prophet's head as I could be, expecting that at any moment he
would whisper to me, "Brother Green, get me out of here!" (Page
152)
"Truthfully, I did not expect Brother Branham to be there when I
returned." (Page 153)
"Each moment I expected the hear that prophet say, "Brother
Green, get me out of here." It was cold and lonely in that
warehouse. Thoughts raced through my mind, questions, more
questions, ... now what? Again the faithful Word came to my
rescue: "Though one rise from the dead, they would not believe."
After all, what would I do if he were to speak to me? Would
anyone believe me if he did arise? Would Brother Billy Paul
believe me? Would Brother Borders believe me? Or would they all
blame me if the body was to turn up missing? At that time, I felt
to ask the Lord whether I was being shown that he was to come
forth with all the dead in Christ. Then I said, "Lord, don't let
him rise here with just me. Wait until there are witnesses."
(Page 154)
From the death of Brother Branham until now, many years have
passed and we are uncertain of their beliefs. We cannot say if
they have abandoned such belief or if they still hold on to it.
We state what was said in the Book, "Acts Of The Prophet",
written by Pearry Green.
Many private resurrection believers changed their doctrine to the
first resurrection, thirty to thirty-five days before the
rapture. Since there is no Scripture for a private resurrection
and their Easter expectations failed over the decades and
resulted in many rejecting the Message, and returning to
Organizations and the World.
1977 was a year of great expectation for such misguided souls.
Since in their conception they magnified the predictions of
Brother Branham concerning that year and treated it as prophecy.
Brother Branham nor the Lord Jesus Christ returned, though some
claimed to have seen the Prophet in a resurrected form and felt
him in his 'parousia' (presence) at his grave and secret
chambers. While many believers are outspoken upon this doctrine,
other secretly believe it, testify, witness and preach it in a
most subtle manner.
A 'Quotation Book' was published in the 1970's by Robert Moore a
former believer of the Message of Malachi 4:5&6. The intention
and purpose of the book was never expressed and was certainly
unclear to many believers of the Message. However the subject was
carefully arranged to show the New Ministry of Brother Branham
and its incompletion, and the necessity of the promised
fulfillment of all prophecies, visions, dreams and Scriptures
that pertains to the third phase of Brother Branham's Ministry.
Great patience was exercised to make the topical index of the
quotation book. The major subjects referred to those items that
makes up the third phase of Brother Branham's Ministry. Then in a
noticeable manner, on Index page one, is the subject "Branham",
William Departure (1965) and "RETURN", which refers to future
activities of the prophet in his New Ministry.
Robert Moore of Arizona employed quotations from more that five
hundred and seventy taped Messages in his fantastic work, but his
strongest indication of the fulfillment of the unfinished
Ministry of Brother Branham is his return. Yet he did not commit
himself openly to the resurrection doctrine. It is regrettable to
state that Robert Moore (deceased), rejected the Prophet and his
Message and supported Baptist organizations in writing against
him and his Ministry (The Healer-Prophet, William Marrion Branham
--- C. Douglas Weaver).
This poor deluded man deceived by Satan through his own
interpretations and expectations suffered great disappointment.
May his soul threatening and fatal mistake be a warning to all
interpreters of the fulfillment of the third phase of Brother
Branham's Ministry which is actually the ministry of Christ
fulfilled through His Bride. Since Mr. Moore did not emphasize
Joseph Branham, nor himself or another as the fulfillment of
Christ's Ministry and evidently ignored its fulfillment by the
end time Bride, he can be safely placed into the first division
of the Message, the heresy of the resurrection of Brother Branham.
Secret believers of the resurrection heresy plant their seeds and
pass on their spirit of unbelief and idolatry in a most subtle
and crafty method as seen displayed in the Index of Mr. Moore's
book of quotations. From behind the most popular Pulpits and from
the lips of most popular men, influential Preachers and great
orators, speaking in the affirmative, they emphasize the visions,
dreams and prophecies, which pertains to the third phase of the
Ministry of Christ. This they do in indication of the person of
William Branham as the only fulfillment of that Ministry since he
was ordained to fulfill the Scripture of Malachi 4:5&6,
Revelation 3:14-22, 10:7, etc. The spirit of idolatry has blinded
the eyes of elected children of God that they cannot divide the
Ministry from the man. The man is gone home, but the Ministry
continues since it is Christ's Ministry.
There is no Scriptural basis for this heresy, but a few
misrepresented quotations are employed to secretly believe this
heresy or publicly preach it. Quote:
"That same Voice that shall sound when the dead in Christ arise,
"For the trumpet... "The trumpet! What is a trumpet? The Voice of
Christ, the same One that turned and summoned him up. He heard
the Voice like a trumpet. Now He said, "Come up hither!" See how
the resurrection will be? It'll be in a moment, in a twinkling
of an eye. That clear sounding Voice, and He'll summons the
Church, for He's come out of it. That great summonsing Voice!
God, help me to hear It that day. As I've often said... I know,
as a mortal, Rodney, I know that there's a big dark door setting
before me, it's called death. Everytime my heart beats, I'm one
beat closer to that door. Some of these days I got to go into it.
But I don't want to go in like a coward, screaming and hollering.
I want to go in there, wrapping myself in the robes of His
righteousness, and know this, that I know Him in the power of His
resurrection; that someday when He calls, I'll come out from
among the dead." (Revelation, Chapter Four, part 1, page 577-578).
The above quotations are used out of context and are misplaced
and misunderstood. They were grouped together to formulate,
project and indicate a resurrection doctrine but the very
quotations used to support a private resurrection of Brother
Branham contradicts that doctrine.
"I said, 'Look Billy, one of these days you ain't gonna have no
daddy to take care of you; Daddy's going to be gone. One of these
mornings you'll come in the room and look; perhaps Daddy'll be
laying there, and you'll shake him, but he won't wake. I said,
'Then they'll haul me down to this little ol' church in a box.
You'll pass by, this handkerchief in your hand, crying. Look
down, "There' a member Billy, I've always been an early riser!"
Hallelujah! Let the trumpet sound. I'll come forth in the first
resurrection. I believe in rising early!” (Uncertain Sound. Jeff.
Ind. 07/31/55)
"Rising early" does not in the least indicate that he is coming
up out of the grave before the rest of the Saints, he specified
that the trumpet must sound and he will come forth in the first
resurrection. When the great trumpet sounds all the dead in
Christ shall rise, including Brother Branham. 1Thess 4:16
"When he calls I will come out from among the dead.” (Revelation
Chapter Four)He expects to hear that voice at the time of the
first resurrection.
"God help me to hear it that day.” (Revelation Chapter Four)
John 5:28 - "Marvel not at this; for the hour is coming, in the
which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice."
"How many is here that's associated with the Tabernacle, let's
see your hands? Everywhere. My, I 'm sure - we're sure glad to
have you. This is the closest meeting I've been to Indiana for
quite a while. Thinking about coming back pretty soon and putting
up a tent and having those seven last trumpets, the Lord
willing." (Spiritual Amnesia, Birmingham, Ala., 4/11/64)
"I'd like to get a place sometime, the Lord willing, when the
tent comes on the scene... and I believe that's soon now. I'll
soon go on a worldwide; I got a world wide meetings coming now.
And I - I'd like to get a place where I could just set down for
about six weeks and just take those things and go through them
(you see), back and forth through the Scripture." (Testimony,
Shrevport, La., 11/28/63)
"And somehow or another, Lord, it may be You're driving us to
that tent, to make that vision fulfill. (Ashamed of Him, page
18, Jeff. Ind. 07/11/65)
"And then I'm here to get the trustees together. I'm kinda
getting put out of all this turning me down on place to hold a
meeting when I'm feeling led to do it. So I think I'm going to
ask them if we just can't get out tent and - and put it up and
just stay there, and, you know. Get out here in the ball park or
out on a farm and move it from place to place just as the Lord
will lead. And I feel that that's what He' s going to do. You
know there's a vision concerning that. And I think that maybe the
reason this happens... Now you know, a lot of times we think it's
horrible because certain things happen, but you know, that might
be God (see?) driving you into these things. When He said it,
He'll do it." (Doing God A Service Without His Will, page 5,
Jeff. Ind. 07/18/65)
The Tent Vision of the Prophet, his part played out in it, his
great expectations and desire for its fulfillment to go Worldwide
with Speak the Word power, and his promises to many churches to
return and preach to them for weeks (made up to 1965), weeks
before his departure, is a great stumbling block to believers of
this heresy since they cannot divide by revelation the man from
the Ministry.
His "Moses" Ministry as well as his "Elijah" Ministry is
completed but his "Christ" Ministry lives on and will continue in
the Bride to fulfill this vision with other dreams, visions and
prophecies.
"From a little group of the true seed of the Word, God will
present Christ with a beloved bride. She is a virgin of His Word.
She is a virgin because she knows no man-made creeds or dogmas.
By and through the members of the bride will be fulfilled all
that was promised of God to be made manifest in the virgin."
(Church Age Book. Page 171)
"The bride has the mind of Christ for she knows what He wants
done with the Word. She performs the command of the Word in His
name for she has "thus saith the Lord." Then the Word is
quickened by the Spirit and it comes to pass. Like a seed that is
planted and watered, it comes to full harvest, serving its
purpose. Those in the bride do only His will. No one can make
them do otherwise. They have 'thus saith the Lord' or they keep
still. They know that it has to be God in them doing the works,
fulfilling His own Word. He did not complete all His work while
in His earthly ministry so now He works in and through the bride.
She knows that, for it was not yet time for Him to do certain
things that He must now do. But He will now fulfill through the
bride that work which He left for this specific time."(Church Age
Book. Page 172)
While it is complimentary that sincere Ministers and believers
that loves the Ministry of Malachi 4, can hold on to the promises
of God, termed the New Ministry of Brother Branham, it is gross
error, heresy and idolatry to presume that the Prophet must be
present in a bodily form, by a private resurrection of the first
resurrection, for the fulfillment of such promises. There is no
place in Scripture where God ever resurrect a Prophet to fulfill
his incomplete mission and Ministry, but He used other men to
fulfill promises made to such Prophets and God has not changed
His Scriptural order in this last day Ministry of Christ. But
like it was in the day when the Son of Man was revealed in his
first coming so is it today when he is revealed in his second
coming (Luke 17:30). Some by a resurrection doctrine presumed
that Jesus, the Son of Man was John the Baptist risen from the
dead. (Matthew 16). They lacked a revelation of Christ but Peter
who was not bewitched by that heresy had a revelation that the
Ministry of Malachi 3 was all summed up in Christ and His Bride.
To believe such a doctrine is to limit God to the flesh of the
Prophet which equals idolatry. God's hands was not tied to the
flesh of Abraham when he promised him the Land of Caanan, he did
not have to resurrect him for the fulfillment of that promise.
Galatians 3:16 - "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises
made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And
to thy seed, which is Christ.
The Promise passed on to Isaac and Jacob. All three Prophets died
and received not the Promise though it was specified to Abraham,
and all his seed. However the Promise was sure unto the seed.
(Galatians 3) Likewise it is sure unto the true seed Bride.
This heresy is full of unbelief even as the heresies which made
the second main divisional doctrine, propagating that all is
over, and all was in Brother Branham, the only difference is that
he went to the grave with “all”, and must return with it before
the Church would accomplish anything.
This heresy under disguise of faith in all the promises of God,
and pretensions of saying only what the Prophet said, believing
it just the way he spoke it, and assuming that is the Word Test
that the elect must pass to qualify for the rapture is
destructive. It has overthrown the faith of many by setting dates
for the resurrection of the Prophet, which never came to pass.
Some said it is already past, even as Hymenaeus and Philetus whom
Paul resisted for overthrowing the faith of many. (2Timothy
15-18).
This is a dead doctrine of the dead, hoping and believing for the
fulfillment of God's promises by waiting on the dead. It is
idolatry, man worship and limiting God to the flesh. On the
contrary Scripture speaks of the dead waiting on us, the end time
Bride. "God having provided some better things for us, that they
without us should not be made perfect." (Hebrews 11:40)
We are not waiting upon the resurrection of the Prophet for our
perfection but he with the rest of the dead are waiting upon us.
The Bride is perfected, adopted sons are manifested and she has
all that she needs for the rest of her journey before the first
resurrection. She is waiting on the adoption to wit the
redemption of the body, not the resurrection for her Ministry and
perfection.
Romans 8:23 - "And not only they, but ourselves also, which have
the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within
ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of
our body."
Romans 8:19-22, bears out that the whole creation is awaiting on
the manifestation of the Sons of God. Not one Son of God, William
Branham, because he himself is awaiting the manifestation of the
Sons of God and the adoption of the Church, to wit, the
redemption of his body.
Therefore upon the basis of God's Word, it is dumb spiritual
ignorance to assume the Prophet must come back in the first
resurrection for the perfection of the Bride by his New Ministry
of the Third Pull and Seven Thunders.
To further prove by the Word and Message of Malachi 4, that the
resurrection doctrine is heresy, inspired from the darkest abyss
of hell, we are taught by the Messenger that when the last soul
comes into the Body of Christ the blood leaves the Mercy Seat,
the Gospel is turned to the Jews and the first resurrection takes
place. If the Prophet is at that time coming to fulfill the third
phase of his Ministry, of healing by the Spoken Word, souls to be
saved in Africa, three hundred thousand in India and many in
other places how can he do so without the blood upon the Mercy
Seat? He cannot, because the Covenant is not in effect. His
resurrection then will serve no purpose to believers of this
damnable heresy. Therefore Beloved Brethren, deceived of Satan,
repent of this idolatry, "Cease ye from man whose breath is in
his nostril." Listen to the sound doctrine of Abraham when he
corrected the rich man in hell, when he tried to preach his
resurrection doctrine to Father Abraham.
Luke 16:31 - "And he said unto him, if they hear not Moses and
the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose
from the dead."
The rich man's idea seemed good in his eyes, even like this
resurrection heresy fit the intellectualism of prominent men in
high places but its not of God. Abraham said it would not
persuade the unbelievers though one rose from the dead. If
"Moses" and "Elijah's" Ministry did not persuade men to believe
God's Word, neither will they be persuaded though he comes from
the dead.
A private resurrection is much more sensible than the Prophet
coming back in the first resurrection to continue his Ministry,
nevertheless both are unscriptural and completely off the
Message of Malachi 4:5-6. There are only five resurrections that
was prophesied in the Scripture, two were fulfilled in
Scriptures, three more are yet to be fulfilled.
Firstly - Our Lord Jesus Christ was the only Prophet that
returned from the dead to fulfill his ministry and yet that was
accomplished by his spirit anointing the church and his
messengers through out the seven church ages because he was the
sinless son of God born by the immaculate conception and it was
prophesied of him that his soul should not be left in hell nor
his body see corruption. Thus he said, "I have power to lay down
my life and power to take it up again."
Psalms 16:10 - "For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither
wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption."
Psalms 49:15 - "But God will redeem my soul from the power of the
grave: for he shall receive me. Selah."
John 10:17-18 - "Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay
down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from
me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and
I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received
of my Father."
There is no Scripture to indicate and there is no promise made
about any other Prophet to come back from the dead to preach the
Gospel or fulfill any Ministry whatsoever.
This heresy claims that William Branham will rise to continue his
Ministry. Having a careful study into the Word from Genesis to
Revelation, there is no promise anywhere stated, implied or
indicated even in the smallest measure in the Word where there is
a promise that the seventh angel is to resurrect in any private
resurrection to fulfill any ministry. No one (prophet) ever came
back and for William Branham to come it will break every shadow
and type in Scripture. No one can show us that. We challenge you
to do so and you cannot!
A study of the messages preached by Brother Branham does not
support such a claim. No part of the message and no quotations of
the messages can be found to support or indicate that there is a
promise of a private resurrection of Brother Branham. Such power
was not invested by God in any other Prophet, nor was it
prophesied of them to arise in any resurrection to complete any
unfulfilled Ministry. Brother Branham never elevated himself in
any of his hundreds of Messages, to have such power as to lay
down his life and to take it up again, and neither did he do it
to any man personally. He knew from Scriptures that, that power
belonged to the Lord Jesus Christ. It will be unscriptural for
him to claim such power.
No where in the Messages did he say that he was coming back in
any kind of Ministry. There is no indication anywhere that when
he die he will return to fulfill his unfinished Ministry of The
Third Pull, Joshua Commission, to Ride the Trail again and such
like. On the contrary, he said, "When I leave you, I'll be
leaving for good." (Revelation of the Seven Seals, page 567)
To believe such an erroneous doctrine that Brother Branham must
resurrect from the grave to continue his Ministry that is
unfulfilled, is idolatry. These heretics are looking to the arms
of flesh, thinking that all was in William Branham and God cannot
work through the church.
Secondly - The resurrection of the Old Testament Saints.
Ephesians 4: 8-10 - "Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on
high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. (Now
that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first
into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same
also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill
all things.)"
Matthew 27:51-53 - "And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent
in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and
the rocks rent; And the graves were opened; and many bodies of
the saints which slept arose, And came out of the graves after
his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto
many."
Thirdly - The Bride of Jesus Christ. The first resurrection.
1Thessalonians 4:16 - "For the Lord himself shall descend from
heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with
the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first."
1Corinthians 15:52 - "In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at
the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall
be raised incorruptible and we shall be changed."
Revelation 20:6 - "Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the
first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but
they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with
him a thousand years."
Fourthly - The Two Witnesses to the Jews. (Revelation 11: 7-12).
Fifthly - Second Resurrection of just and unjust.
Daniel 12: 2 - "And many of them that sleep in the dust of the
earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame
and everlasting contempt."
Revelation 20:12 - "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand
before God; and the books were opened and another book was opened
which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those
things which were written in the books, according to their works."
This doctrine is not only erroneous and idolatrous but also
heretical and of the antichrist. This doctrine have overthrown
the faith of many here in Trinidad and in the USA where it
originated even among the great names of message believers who
wrote books to prove that William Branham will be resurrected
from the grave. Projectors of this damnable heresy are like
Philetus and Hymenaeus. Philetus was a person condemned by
Brother Paul for error regarding the resurrection and Hymenaeus
had fallen into many errors and was excommunicated by Brother
Paul. One of his errors was concerning the resurrection.
The Lord never used the dead, he always used the living. Notice
that when Elijah the prophet died, he did not come back to preach
or to continue his ministry but the spirit that anointed him came
upon another man, -Elisha the prophet, who was alive. So to, the
spirit of Elijah fell on John the Baptist, a living person. Now
after two thousand years at the end of the Laodicean church age,
Elijah the person that was dead did not rise from the grave to
fulfill Malachi 4:5&6 but the spirit that was upon him anointed
William Branham, a living person. When Elijah comes to the Jews
he would not be the resurrection of those Prophets, -Elijah,
Elisha and John, nor will it be Brother Branham, but he will be a
man anointed by the Spirit of Elijah which totals five comings of
Elijah. If Brother Branham comes back from the grave to continue
his Ministry that will make it six comings of Elijah. There is no
prophecy of a sixth coming of Elijah, and all five comings are
perfectly recorded in Scripture, four comings are fulfilled and
the fifth coming is prophecy to be fulfilled (Revelation 11).
When the two witnesses to the Jews were martyred and resurrected
by the Lord they ascended into heaven and did not return to
continue any kind of Ministry. None of the men anointed by the
Spirit of Elijah who died ever returned to continue their
Ministries in their physical resurrected bodies; nor will Brother
Branham come back to continue Christ's Ministry, but the Elijah
Spirit that rested upon him will rest upon a Jewish Prophet by
the pre-ordination of God. (Revelation 11)
With all love and respect to all elected Sons and Daughters of
God and Ministers of Christ, who are bewitched by this heresy, I
declare this doctrine Satanic, heretical, off the Word and
Message of Malachi 4, and I call you to repentance. There is room
at the Cross for you. I further challenge the Message World,
Ministers and intellectual giants to disprove what I have written
by the Word and Message of the Prophet. You are under sworn
obligation to prove me wrong or repent and also tell those under
your Ministry that this Exposition is of God. Amen!
