βNow, I want you to bear in mind, there is a Church and a Bride. You always have to make it run in threes, fours is wrong. Threes! Threes, sevens, tens, twelves, twenty-fours, and forties, and fifties-those unbroken numbers. The Bible is… And God runs His Messages in numerals of the Bible in those numbers. You get something that flies off of one of those numbers, you'd better watch. It won't come out right on the next thing. You've got to bring it back here to where you start from.β
He says four is wrong. Really? What about the four beasts around the throne?
It constantly angers me. He always made statements as if he never finished reading the chapter or book.
I remember when we got the issue of the Only Believe Magazine with the article about WMB not actually being there when the cloud happened because if he was, he would be hunting out of season and the "honest" man that WMB was would NEVER do that!!! I don't remember even knowing he was in Houston when it actually happened. I also remember having almost no reaction to it–which is the scariest thing of all, really. I just remember thinking, that's weird, and listening to another tape and reading another book and believing the same as I had for years and years by that point. Cognitive dissonance at work
It's so interesting that he never even talked about the cloud until it came out in the magazines. Just another thing he could lie about and use to further his campaign of self-aggrandizement. I wonder how many people in the upper echelon of the "message" knew all along that WMB was not there when it happened.
I also remember the picture of the cloud being used as another litmus test. Some people claimed they could look at the picture and see the individual angels. I never could. They probably couldn't either–they were on their own missions of personal self-aggrandizement. I also used to wonder–is that really the shape of a pyramid?? Really? It sure doesn't look like the Pyramids of Giza.
βRemember the other day when John was supposed to come, prophesied a messenger before Christ come, a voice of one crying in the wilderness? Malachi saw him. Look, the 3rd chapter of Malachi is the coming of the Elijah that was to come and forerun the coming of Christ. You say, "Oh, no, no, Brother Branham, it's the 4th chapter." I beg your pardon. Jesus said it was the 3rd chapter.β
First, when Malachi was written, no chapters and verses existed. It was an on-going prophecy.
Second, Jesus did not say βit was the 3rd chapter.β Notice how Jesus completely described Johnβs ministry:
βBut what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.
For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.β
And then Jesus continues the prophecy:
βAnd his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.β
Jesus shows how the messenger, in Branhamβs chapter 3, is also the Elijah of chapter 4.
Watch Gabriel speak to Johnβs father:
βAnd there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.β
Gabriel makes it very clear, the messenger of Branhamβs chapter 3, is also the Elijah of Malachi 4.
After stating John was Malachi 3, and not 4, he then says;
βWhat did he do also? Just like Elijah had told Jezebel, he told Herodias. He walked right up to Herod's face and said, "It's not lawful for you to have her." She chopped his head off for it. She tried to get Elijah. That same spirit was in Jezebel was in that woman. And the same thing is in the Jezebel church today-the same thing.
Now, notice it. What a great lesson we find here. And now, it looks like those people would have knowed. John began to bawl them people out, and stand there, look like they would've knowed that was that Spirit of Elijah. They should have understood that that's what it was.β
So, first, John is only Malachi 3 and not 4. Now, John is also Malachi 4.
How could Branham miss that? As I said before, he never fully read the scripture. He just pulled out whatever fit his narrative. The worse teacher Iβve ever heard. He took hours to say what could be said in 30 minutes, and then continued to contradict himself.
βYou know, Noah watched Enoch. For when Enoch come up missing, he knowed judgment was at hand. He got to hanging around the ark, but Noah didn't go up.β
Read the scriptures. Noah was not born yet when Enoch was translated. See, he made up his own Bible.
Remember, all these comments come from the First Seal where divine revelation was supposed to be happening.
βNotice. This last message of the last Church Age is not a reformer, he is a prophet; not a reformer. Show me where one prophet ever started a Church Age. He is not a reformer; he is a prophet. Others was reformers but not prophets.β
Really? Go back to the night before when he taught on the Breach. He clearly stated all the messengers to his church ages were βseers, prophets,β
How and why did it change the next night? I thought this was supposed to be some great revelation coming forth that no one knew, but him. Yet, itβs riddled with contradictions.
βSaul, a good name. Saul was a king one time in Israel, but Saul didn't fit an apostle. It might be all right for a king, but not an apostle. So Jesus changed his name. From what? From Saul to Paul. Look at the sons of thunder and on downβ¦β
God never changed Saulβs name to Paul. Notice:
βAnd as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?β
And again:
βAnd there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.
And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,β
Jesus was still calling him Saul.
And again:
βAnd Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.β
βFor he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.
Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul:β
βThen the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea:
Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.β
βAnd Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.β
βNow there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.β
βThen Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.β
Still Saul.
From Acts 9 until Acts 13, Paul is referred to as Saul. Acts 13 is the first record of the name Paul. So, when did God change his name? He didnβt. Paul was his Roman citizen name.
1. The Vatican and the Pope, religious power 2. Washington D.C. politicians and political power 3. Voice of God Recordings, Branham
All three have their leaders who are anti-Christ and deceptive. All three are idolatrous and surrounded with their idols and artifacts. All three have been crowned which signifies infallibility, authority and dignity.
The Pope is never wrong. Politicians are never wrong. Branham is never wrong.
Branham did say he made a lot of mistakes. True, however, he never offered public apologies after he made many absurd statements.
First, if Branham was a true prophet, and God overlooked his myriad of lies, discrepancies, embellished stories and contradictions, then we have nothing to worry about. God will also overlook our messed up lives. Heβs no respector of person.
If we are wrong in our assessment of Branham, then God will still forgive us because we are only using his statements.
If Branham is a false prophet, this is the greatest unmatched deception to ever hit the earth.
Last but not least, I guarantee this 100%, if any one of us was caught by message ministers lying, embellishing stories, and continually contradicting ourselves, we would be called on the carpet, humiliated and repentance would be required.
THERE'S NO HEAVEN WITHOUT THAT CLOUD BECAUSE IN IT YOU SEE THE CHERUBIMS WHO CHASE ADAM AND AVE OUT OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN_WHATEVER YOU SAY WON'T CHANGE A THIN AND THAT CLOUD WAS CONNECTED TO PROPHET WILLIAM BRANHAM… SHALOM
The message of William Branham is true. You listen to it trying to find errors and mistakes, surely the devil will show them to you. Besides the prophecies that has came to pass and the one of Los Angeles to sink into the bottom of the sea. You watch if you are gonna be alive when that comes to pass then you must know that no man could have guessed that.
Itβs not a cult at all. And it wasnβt preached for unbelievers but for those that believe. You can scoff and talk against but as of today many of the testimonies are taking place where people with cancer etc are being by listening to those tapes.
Also, every time when God does something there is always a stumbling block for those that werenβt called to believe.
If the message or WMB doesnβt produce a good Christian life not just morals etc but a sanctified and consecrated life than the pentecostals etc then I donβt know.
THE MESSAGE OF WMB IS NOT A CULT AND IT WILL NEVER BE. IT IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF CHRISTIANITY, BETTER THAN WHAT ALL THE GREAT REFORMERS PRODUCED. IF YOU ARE SINCERE ENOUGH, READ THE CHURCH AGES BOOK THEN PRAY GOD WILL REVEAL IT TO YOU.
βNow remember, in the days of the seventh angel-his sounding forth, blasting forth the gospel trumpet-he is to finish all the mysteries of God. Just like… Here come forth in the early church ages (we'll get it after awhile) a doctrine, then… It become a saying first, and then a doctrine, and then it become a statute, then it become a church.
And through the Dark Ages, and out of the Dark Ages, come the first Reformation with Luther. And he brought with him all kinds of mysterious things that happened during that church age (all back in there), but he never finished it up.
Then along come Wesley with sanctification, got some more of it. Still never finished it. Left loose ends everywhere, such as sprinkling instead of baptism. And Luther took "Father, Son and Holy Ghost" instead of the "Lord Jesus Christ"-all these different things.β
Branhamβs own words from the First Seal, but notice. The night before, he reads from Zechariah 3:9:
Now, letβs turn over to Zechariah 4:10β4:10. Listen.
ββ¦ who has despised the day of small things?β¦ (God in simplicity. See?)β¦ for they shall rejoice, andβ¦ see the plummet in the hands of Zerubbabel with whoseβwith those seven; these are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.β
The seven eyesβeyes mean seeing. Seeing means prophets, seers. This Lamb had seven horns, and on each horn had an eye: seven eyes. What is it? Christ and His Bride. Seven Church Ages, out of there was seven prophets that went forth, seven seers, eyes. So the last one must be a seer. All right.
So, he reads directly from the inspired word of God and calls the seven eyes of the LORD seers, prophets.
The next night as heβs teaching the First Seal, he calls them reformers. He clearly states they were all reformers except the last messenger, who is a prophet.
We have a grave issue here. He literally takes the inspired word and un-inspires it by giving his own interpretation. Either God was wrong or Branham was wrong.
This is not to be excused for his lack of education and theological expertise. He was able to read. Furthermore, those Seals were supposed to be divine revelation. So what is the revelation?
Were they seers/prophets or reformers?
Again, notice the wording in the above quote about about the Nicolaitans:
ββ¦it become a saying first, then a doctrine, then it become a statute, and then a church.β
Heβs attempting to tie the βdeeds of the Nicolaitansβ of Ephesus, with the βdoctrine of the Nicolaitansβ in Pergamos.
He says it was a saying, then a doctrine, then a statute and them a church.
First, this makes no sense at all and second, it does not say that even if you try to read between the lines.
To the Ephesus church Jesus Christ first addresses the lying apostles;
βI know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:β
Why were they liars and false apostles?
Because they were bringing the people under a cultic idolatrous doctrine (Branham says it was a saying) contrary to the true apostles teaching. Christ uses the word βdeedsβ and you cannot practice something, a deed, without having a doctrine. A doctrine informs about what to do.
How Branham came up with it just being a saying is beyond me. He read the scripture, but came up with his own interpretation.
It does not say it was a βsaying.β It clearly states it was βdeeds.β
You cannot carry out something if youβre not taught what it is.
I apologize, but Iβve watched this for years. The scriptures are clear and plain. Just read it. Then Branham comes along and puts so many extra twists and turns and spins on scripture, itβs utterly pathetic.
I remember when he cautioned the ministers to not mix their ministries. He said if youβre a pastor donβt try to evangelize, etc.
Well, he tried to be a teacher, and caused so much confusion, itβs disgusting. No wonder thereβs so many versions of the message.
I'm surprised that people are still talking about something that happened 60 years ago. I think the most intriguing part of the story is that whichever side people wish to fall on… the "failed" rocket at Vandenberg where the military is laying claims to the event was called "Launch Number Seven!" Payload Number Seven… and the clandestine Corona Program. Branham had no clue what the Seven Seals were really all about. Or the 7 Churches.
why are you in disbelief?, why lie and even if what you claim to say is true, but did you not know that God could do great things with his prophets and able to transport them from one place to another by his power?.. What happened with Phillip in Acts 8:39? read carefully Acts 8:9 When they had come out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more. As he happily continued on his way,
and you lied saying that william branham cheated with the prayer cards, to make people think he was a divine healer… but there are a lot of people who testify until this day that these things were true, that it was God who performed miracles in the ministry of william branham, here is the proofπππ
May God have mercy on you, you don't know what you're doing, as Jesus said, " father forgive them , they don't know what they're doing" this is my prayers for you
He was in Tucson on Feb. 23 1963 because he preached sermon Doors in a door in Tucson Feb. 23 1963. That is recorded and on document. And you need to get your facts right before you go criticizing something because you've done been wrong two times. He was javelina hog hunting. Hog hunting season comes in January and goes out in May. Now you said he wasn't there in Tucson., and you also said that he wasn't there hunting because hunting season wasn't in. You've been wrong about both of those things! Are you going to repent of that and change your video now? No! You won't do that even tho you been wrong that far. Look up Arizona hunting and see when hunting season comes in for javelina hogs. You can go to brother branham's sermon on YouTube, type in year 1963 . It shows where he preached every sermon. Date, morning or evening. Sermons was recorded and you can see where he was at on February 23rd 1963 so he was in Tucson. I'm sure you won't change nothing you've said so far so there's no need of me saying anything else about the cloud which I could probably prove you wrong on that too but I won't bother. Now what you said about him being in Houston. He was on the date of March 4 1963 in Houston, Tx. That was 6 days after him being in Tucson on Feb. 28 1963. Everyone who listens to his sermons knows he usually showed up to preach on the day he was to preach because his son Brother Billy Paul Branham and Brother Branham drove across country to the places he preached. Sometimes he arrived there a day early, but in many cases he showed up on the date. Houston meetings was March 4, 1963. Like I said please get your facts straight.
Do you have any videos on the 2 books he wrote?
I have them in a box somewhere in storage.
Iβll keep saying it, βthe whole cloud narrative is a scandalβ. Way too many cheese holes π§ in it.
First Seal:
βNow, I want you to bear in mind, there is a Church and a Bride. You always have to make it run in threes, fours is wrong. Threes! Threes, sevens, tens, twelves, twenty-fours, and forties, and fifties-those unbroken numbers. The Bible is… And God runs His Messages in numerals of the Bible in those numbers. You get something that flies off of one of those numbers, you'd better watch. It won't come out right on the next thing. You've got to bring it back here to where you start from.β
He says four is wrong. Really? What about the four beasts around the throne?
It constantly angers me. He always made statements as if he never finished reading the chapter or book.
I remember when we got the issue of the Only Believe Magazine with the article about WMB not actually being there when the cloud happened because if he was, he would be hunting out of season and the "honest" man that WMB was would NEVER do that!!!

βBut what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.
For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.β
And then Jesus continues the prophecy:
βAnd his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.β
Jesus shows how the messenger, in Branhamβs chapter 3, is also the Elijah of chapter 4.
Watch Gabriel speak to Johnβs father:
βAnd there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.β
Gabriel makes it very clear, the messenger of Branhamβs chapter 3, is also the Elijah of Malachi 4.
After stating John was Malachi 3, and not 4, he then says;
βWhat did he do also? Just like Elijah had told Jezebel, he told Herodias. He walked right up to Herod's face and said, "It's not lawful for you to have her." She chopped his head off for it. She tried to get Elijah. That same spirit was in Jezebel was in that woman. And the same thing is in the Jezebel church today-the same thing.
Now, notice it. What a great lesson we find here. And now, it looks like those people would have knowed. John began to bawl them people out, and stand there, look like they would've knowed that was that Spirit of Elijah. They should have understood that that's what it was.β
So, first, John is only Malachi 3 and not 4. Now, John is also Malachi 4.
How could Branham miss that? As I said before, he never fully read the scripture. He just pulled out whatever fit his narrative. The worse teacher Iβve ever heard. He took hours to say what could be said in 30 minutes, and then continued to contradict himself.
First Seal:

Read the scriptures. Noah was not born yet when Enoch was translated. See, he made up his own Bible.
Remember, all these comments come from the First Seal where divine revelation was supposed to be happening.
First Seal:
βNotice. This last message of the last Church Age is not a reformer, he is a prophet; not a reformer. Show me where one prophet ever started a Church Age. He is not a reformer; he is a prophet. Others was reformers but not prophets.β
Really? Go back to the night before when he taught on the Breach. He clearly stated all the messengers to his church ages were βseers, prophets,β
How and why did it change the next night? I thought this was supposed to be some great revelation coming forth that no one knew, but him. Yet, itβs riddled with contradictions.
First Seal:
βSaul, a good name. Saul was a king one time in Israel, but Saul didn't fit an apostle. It might be all right for a king, but not an apostle. So Jesus changed his name. From what? From Saul to Paul. Look at the sons of thunder and on downβ¦β
God never changed Saulβs name to Paul. Notice:

βThen Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.β
Still Saul.
From Acts 9 until Acts 13, Paul is referred to as Saul. Acts 13 is the first record of the name Paul. So, when did God change his name? He didnβt. Paul was his Roman citizen name.
I see 3 manifestations of the Vatican:
1. The Vatican and the Pope, religious power
2. Washington D.C. politicians and political power
3. Voice of God Recordings, Branham
All three have their leaders who are anti-Christ and deceptive. All three are idolatrous and surrounded with their idols and artifacts. All three have been crowned which signifies infallibility, authority and dignity.
The Pope is never wrong. Politicians are never wrong. Branham is never wrong.
Branham did say he made a lot of mistakes. True, however, he never offered public apologies after he made many absurd statements.
I make this proclamation;
First, if Branham was a true prophet, and God overlooked his myriad of lies, discrepancies, embellished stories and contradictions, then we have nothing to worry about. God will also overlook our messed up lives. Heβs no respector of person.
If we are wrong in our assessment of Branham, then God will still forgive us because we are only using his statements.
If Branham is a false prophet, this is the greatest unmatched deception to ever hit the earth.
Last but not least, I guarantee this 100%, if any one of us was caught by message ministers lying, embellishing stories, and continually contradicting ourselves, we would be called on the carpet, humiliated and repentance would be required.

Heβs attempting to tie the βdeeds of the Nicolaitansβ of Ephesus, with the βdoctrine of the Nicolaitansβ in Pergamos.
He says it was a saying, then a doctrine, then a statute and them a church.
First, this makes no sense at all and second, it does not say that even if you try to read between the lines.
To the Ephesus church Jesus Christ first addresses the lying apostles;
βI know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:β
Why were they liars and false apostles?
Because they were bringing the people under a cultic idolatrous doctrine (Branham says it was a saying) contrary to the true apostles teaching. Christ uses the word βdeedsβ and you cannot practice something, a deed, without having a doctrine. A doctrine informs about what to do.
How Branham came up with it just being a saying is beyond me. He read the scripture, but came up with his own interpretation.
It does not say it was a βsaying.β It clearly states it was βdeeds.β
Deeds/Greek;
Γ©rgon (from ergΕ, "to work, accomplish") β a work or worker who accomplishes something. 2041 /Γ©rgon ("work") is a deed (action) that carries out (completes) an inner desire (intension, purpose).
You cannot carry out something if youβre not taught what it is.
I apologize, but Iβve watched this for years. The scriptures are clear and plain. Just read it. Then Branham comes along and puts so many extra twists and turns and spins on scripture, itβs utterly pathetic.
I remember when he cautioned the ministers to not mix their ministries. He said if youβre a pastor donβt try to evangelize, etc.
Well, he tried to be a teacher, and caused so much confusion, itβs disgusting. No wonder thereβs so many versions of the message.
Branham was a clinical psychopath and his character matches Hareβs List of the Characteristics of a Psychopath.
I'm surprised that people are still talking about something that happened 60 years ago. I think the most intriguing part of the story is that whichever side people wish to fall on… the "failed" rocket at Vandenberg where the military is laying claims to the event was called "Launch Number Seven!" Payload Number Seven… and the clandestine Corona Program. Branham had no clue what the Seven Seals were really all about. Or the 7 Churches.
why are you in disbelief?, why lie and even if what you claim to say is true, but did you not know that God could do great things with his prophets and able to transport them from one place to another by his power?.. What happened with Phillip in Acts 8:39? read carefully Acts 8:9 When they had come out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more. As he happily continued on his way,
(you see?, the word tells us here that the spirit of God took away Philip, see?, why limited the power of God, if in the new covenant God could take away his prophets and transport them to another place by his power , why can't you believe that Jesus is the same yesterday ,today and forever ?, JΓ©sus said that" things I've done, you will do it more and grater, if you have enough faith, you'll be able to move the mountains, and everything, is possible, Jesus was not talked just about seek , or healing people, I was talking about real things too, if you have faith you can be able to change the place to another, just by faith" and you claimed also and say that the cloud of February 28, 1963 was caused by air plain or machine, did you know that the same phenomenon repeated itself after many years to bear witness that that happened in 1963 was true?,
here is the proof and testimony πππ

Don't you see that?
and you lied saying that william branham cheated with the prayer cards, to make people think he was a divine healer… but there are a lot of people who testify until this day that these things were true, that it was God who performed miracles in the ministry of william branham, here is the proofπππ

May God have mercy on you, you don't know what you're doing, as Jesus said, " father forgive them , they don't know what they're doing" this is my prayers for you
He was in Tucson on Feb. 23 1963 because he preached sermon Doors in a door in Tucson Feb. 23 1963. That is recorded and on document. And you need to get your facts right before you go criticizing something because you've done been wrong two times. He was javelina hog hunting. Hog hunting season comes in January and goes out in May. Now you said he wasn't there in Tucson., and you also said that he wasn't there hunting because hunting season wasn't in. You've been wrong about both of those things! Are you going to repent of that and change your video now? No! You won't do that even tho you been wrong that far. Look up Arizona hunting and see when hunting season comes in for javelina hogs. You can go to brother branham's sermon on YouTube, type in year 1963 . It shows where he preached every sermon. Date, morning or evening. Sermons was recorded and you can see where he was at on February 23rd 1963 so he was in Tucson. I'm sure you won't change nothing you've said so far so there's no need of me saying anything else about the cloud which I could probably prove you wrong on that too but I won't bother. Now what you said about him being in Houston. He was on the date of March 4 1963 in Houston, Tx. That was 6 days after him being in Tucson on Feb. 28 1963. Everyone who listens to his sermons knows he usually showed up to preach on the day he was to preach because his son Brother Billy Paul Branham and Brother Branham drove across country to the places he preached. Sometimes he arrived there a day early, but in many cases he showed up on the date. Houston meetings was March 4, 1963. Like I said please get your facts straight.
Another thing get your facts right. He was hunting javalina hog. The season starts around January and ends in May.
