CHRISTIAN MEDIA RESEARCH - Snapshots

William Branham - The late William Branham (1909-1965), claimed to have a prophecy of the 7 seals ? and visitations from Jesus. Branham proclaimed himself to be the angel of Revelation 3:14 and 10:7. He prophesied the word of God was given in 3 forms ? the Zodiac, the Egyptian pyramids, and the written scripture. Branham denied the trinity ? teaching the 'Jesus Only' brand of Pentecostalism, and taught that Eve had sex with the snake in the garden ? the so-called "serpent seed" doctrine. Branham taught the last days would be characterized by a single last day prophet, and it is believed that South Carolina preacher R. G. Stair sought to capitalize on this by dubbing himself the `last day prophet.' Branham is highly revered by many to this very day, but his doctrine is thoroughly false and all `Branhamite' preachers should be vigorously avoided.
