    You're again jumping to conclusions. You don't know how much this person reads and loves the Bible. Seems like you're just being critical. The Bible says the Holy Ghost bears witness with our spirit. He likely got that type of witness, so shame on you HytonZulu. Please go watch this video again and see the 6 proofs at the end of the video as proof Brother Branham was a prophet. This is written in brotherly kindness and respect in hopes you’ll repent.

God is Love that is Divine Love .That is how you can see a true Christian when you love like that you , you become selfless you will Love everyone regardless of who or what they are. As Jesus Christ did for us gave His Life on Calvary for you and me and the whole world. When Paul met with Jesus on the road to Damascus , he knew who Jesus was ,that was a life changing event for him.The Prophet was the Prophet for the end time he brought the message for , you either believe it or you don’t May God bless you and i pray you make the right decision.❤️

    @@PeterNewman-gm9wn Just like the prophet said stealing,lying,adultery, murder etc is not sin but are attributes of unbelief,which is the real sin. You do those things because you are not a believer! So if you are a genuine, honest believer,you will find yourself automatically hating to steal, lie,murder, committing adultery etc. Of course, the devil will still try to tempt you (like he did on the Lord Jesus), but you will resist him. Remember, Satan can not force you to sin,but just lures you.

    Thank you bro @ Jesse for the insights you share. I realised many people who " speak strongly against the message of the hour" have no truth backed. The bible teaches us to be quick to listen and slow to speak but many do the opposite. I surely believe listening gives you the ability to know more but before many know, they interupt by their speaking. Let us always give time to the spirit of God and allow Him to speak to us. Seek him more in Prayer because his has all the answers "thats to the believer's". Study the spoken and written word with humility, keeping in the order of the gospel. Shalom

    'mighty prothet'? Isn't it a bit blasphemous? From my perspective most of defence of WMB focuses on how he was normal human and that is reason he lied, or exaggerated. There are MANY people that were not healed. How was he mighty then? When they called JESUS 'good' he asked not to do it. He said only God is good. Guess 'mighty' is not as strong word as 'good' 🤔

    God bless you! Good question. Brother Branham said God gave him a sport, which was hunting and fishing. See the quote below. So it seems God can give us a sport for recreation. This means sports are areas of liberty, but we cannot use our liberty as an occasion to sin. Therefore, believers can do sports as long as they obey the Word. Any sport that causes a believer to sin, though, should be avoided. Remember that Brother Branham warned restaurant owners to not allow rock and roll because of the sin it caused. So with sports, the Bible has warned us to not allow certain sports because of the sins they cause, such as wearing shorts, or wearing sexy, tight clothing.

    @@JesseSmithAkronBrideofChrist The Lord bless you Pr Jesse. Partly, you have answered the question I had. But there are still some grey areas you could shed more light. I know of some message churches which organise some sports for their youth, like netball, volleyball etc but they can't play these games when in usual attire. I am also aware of some message churches preaching that brothers can only wear full pyjamas as underwear, anything else is women attire. Finally, does exposing the lower legs(from the knees downwards) mean being naked for brothers? What about round collar T-shirts: are they for brothers or sisters or both? Then a sister in labour ward,being examined and delivered by a male doctor? My take is that we need the Holy Ghost to guide in some of these nitty gritty areas, otherwise we risk becoming legalistic like the Pharisees. My thoughts though, no offence intended

  • @JesseSmithAkronBrideofChrist

    @JesseSmithAkronBrideofChrist

    God bless you! Yes, we need the Holy Ghost for wisdom with each question. Remember that God allows for liberty or diversity within the Body of Christ. See 2 These. 2:15, which says the churches had traditions from epistles (Word) or word (spoken word). The main thing with liberties is that we don't cause others to stumble. So we must think of weak believers. See Romans 14:13,21. For sports, Brother Branham said we can play sports but don't get in the "spirit" of sports, which must mean a prideful, competitive spirit. Regarding brothers and their pajamas, churches should NOT mandate that brothers can only wear full length clothing. But if the churches "suggest" that, then that is their liberty. But I don't see how they can mandate a certain pajamas without Bible Scriptures. I believe they have gone too far. In some places, it is just too hot to wear full clothing. Brothers exposing from the knee down is not sin, but they are getting close to showing nakedness if they are exposing the knees. They should be more modest than that, I would think. I don't see any sin against men and women wearing round collar t-shirts. I don't see how that can be mandated from the Bible. Some countries are so poor, they cannot afford anything different. Sisters being examined by a male doctor should try to be avoided, but it's not always possible. When Brother Branham's wife sister Meda gave birth to Sarah, the male doctor urged him to let him tie Meda's tubes, but Brother Branham said no because he knew a Joseph was coming. So he was the one who gave birth, it seems. So we should try as hard as possible to have our sisters with female doctors, but it is not always possible. Yes we don't want to be legalists. So we must remain humble and teachable. Does this help? God bless you!

    Sure, this is now very satisfying brother. God bless you. As you have rightly put,if we all had the Holy Ghost, it would lead us in all our daily lives without offending any one whether by eating, dressing etc The biggest problem has been preachers purportedly claiming to be full of the Holy Ghost whereas not! These "preachers " put a lot of legalistic on the brethren, especially the sisters by way of dressing in particular. They have gone ahead to get quotes relating to dressing of the sisters (and sometimes brothers). May the Lord bless you in your ministry and continue serving the bride of the Lord. As a pastor, you have a huge responsibility on your shoulders to the bride of Christ worldwide.

He never claimed to be perfect himself. So what if he had on a shorts, be it against better judgment or whatever. Who here claims to be Christian but is guilty themselves (contradiction claims to actions). Nothing changes The Truth. And my Brother William Branham was used to help me believe.

    God bless you and I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother at 14 years old. I cannot imagine the pain you felt. I trust the LORD was with you, comforting you in your loss. Dear sister, God is with you in your struggles. We all have them, and you will be more than a conqueror as you learn upon the LORD and trust Him in every situation. Dear friend, I honestly think it is most wise to withhold any harsh judgments about Brother Branham, since he is not here to defend himself. I'm not saying you're actually judging him, but from my perspective, having studied his sermons for 23 years, I have heard so, so much good from his heart, from his ministry. Recall also that Martin Luther was antisemitic, yet most believers from most denominations would see the good God used him for, and thank God for the good that came out of his life. Most Christians would rejoice in the good things Luther did. I hope you'll apply the same grace to Brother Branham, if you feel he has failed in some way, because he did so much good. I cannot put into words all the good that Brother Branham's ministry has done for me. Brother Branham pointing me to the Bible has literally transformed my life, and I feel so thankful to the LORD for sending Brother Branham to serve his purpose for the LORD Jesus Christ. I've written 2 books about Brother Branham's Bible based teachings, and the Holy Spirit led me to do it. Please consider reading the books, as they emphasize the Scriptures that God led Brother Branham to preach. I'll happily email you free copies of the PDFs. I think you had a question about the Angel of the LORD. Yes, I believe the Angel of the LORD was with Brother Branham, but I never heard that the Angel always kept Brother Branham from making mistakes. I am not sure who told you that, but I have never heard Brother Branham say that. Recently, I have put out video quotes from Brother Branham saying he sinned every day, made thousands of mistakes in a year, and needed the blood of Jesus Christ every single day to forgive his sins. This is the beauty of the gospel that I see in Brother Branham's life, as I listen to the tapes. Brother Branham was just like me, and you, and all believers in that we all must trust in the blood of Jesus Christ every single day. I hope this helps you and this is written in brotherly kindness and respect. I hope something I said was a blessing. God bless you today and always!

    My brother, love you in Jesuschrist, I am a strong believer of the messenger Branham, I have wear short all my life and I still do, Isaiah 47:1-3 speaks to woman not a men, the quote Branham you use goes against what you say he said, he said a men can be shirt less or half way naket "no scandal there" he said, but then a women do the same is a different thing, he's not condemning men but a women, now bible say the shame of a "men " body is from half his thighs to the hip, hip is where you wear your belt, Men's thighs are the upper parts of their legs, situated between the hips and the knees, see? Exodus 28:42, shame from there down, Paul says we cover the shame full area of our bodies so by the bible is from the thighs to our hips for men that is, when is the case, but not the same for women of course! I have taken the homework to watch brother branham pictures including the one on this video but there is a lot more of him with Billy paul and brother Joseph in shorts too, and those where more recent pictures not from 1951 or 1955 question is who bought those shorts for Billy and Joseph? Why he allowed it see? I dont think it's a shame for "men" to show his leg nothing to see there like the prophet said, or be without a shirt at a time given too, I'll probably keep wearing shorts, I am wearing them now but not shorter than my knees ever, I have seen men with shorts shorts 5 or 6 inches higher than their knees, now like the prophet said they do look like a sissy most definitely I agree those I will never wear you see? The ones the prophet weared in the picture all white ones aren't that short, they come down to his knees so I think he is ok there, or maybe not I just when back to see the picture and they are a bit higher of his knees by 2 or 3 inches but that what it is,.with all do respect, all for His glory amén and God bless you

    The Bible admonishes us that physical exercise is good for our well being. But the enemy has invaded sports and games that there are very strong spirits now attached to sports. It is no longer just for well-being of the body or refreshment of the mind but has degenerated into LIFE and DEATH affair. And this is where a Christian needs to be alert coz once this spirit catches you, then your spiritual life is gone. There are of course sports which are violent in nature or which entail literally becoming naked or which are being sponsored by alcohol companies etc, a serious Christian should never be associated with such. Then of course there is sports betting (really gambling), which christians should never ever be involved. So may the Lord lead you in everything. There are also message believers who do hunting and fishing because the prophet did these sports. These are copy cat believers. First seek the Lord, to give you the Holy Ghost and He will guide you into all the truth. God bless

    In the picture I don’t see Bro. Branham’s thigh revealed.Am I missing something here ? Also, if women are not to wear shorts how can they be called “women’s clothing”? I am not saying this to defend wearing shorts , but some of the logic does not maintain continuity. Most shorts today men wear do not reveal the thighs,

    God bless you! If you look closely, you can see the "whites" of his knees, so there is a small section of his thighs showing. And I agree with you on the idea that it's hard to understand why shorts are called women's clothing. Also, men can wear any men's clothing as long as their thighs are not showing, but again, as I put on my previous videos about modesty, men should lead in modesty and therefore wear long pants as examples to others. Hope this helps. God bless you!

    Well done brother! The one thing that stood out the most from that video of Branham was God's prophet (if it was him) front and center looking like a little boy and a roar of laughter. A roar of laughter at the prophet of God, and you KNOW the devil was behind that. The devil is very crafty, and he knows our ignorances to use against us, and always has one good punch. Because the devil was able to exploit Branham's situation or personality, that video will forever be on the internet showing God's prophet laughed at. Let that be a lesson brothers and sisters, that we must always be diligent and on guard because the devil is cunning when we're not, and always has one good punch for us. Despite God forgiving Branham and us for these things, we can unwillingly embarrass our Lord. Hollywood is always trying to get straight men to dress like sissies much the same to mock our Lord. Always be on guard.

That year was tough for the prophet due to the stubbornness of the Afrikaaner brethren as a result he disobeyed The Angel of The Lord after being commanded to do certain things but because of the persuasion of the brethren He gave in and disobeyed God and even suffered for it. Read the message Faith African trip report 52-0726 he touched on that experience. Shalom

Didnt abraham almost make sara to commit adultery? Didnt david commit adultery? And plan the murder of the womans husband? At least bro. Branham didnt had nothing to hide , he was a man, but that did not keep him from being the man of god to be a prophet for this age ,or what did god made a mistake ? Did god choosed the wrong man? If he did how can he be perfect ,see i have no problem with this photo nothing happens unless god allows it. He is still my brother and the prophet of god god bless

It’s my channel and I don’t allow trash on my channel. These blocked ones can go create their own channels and state their hateful words. I will keep praying for their repentance. If a group calls themselves Bereans and researchers, and then ignores my research, year after year, then they are cowards. And if this group slanders Brother Branham and are guilty themselves then they are hypocrites. Friend, you’re putting words in my mouth. I never challenged anyone (in that specific video). I said they’re afraid of my research because they know they cannot disprove the Bible revelations that God gave to brother Branham on major doctrine. All the major doctrines are in the Bible. The accusers said there’s no sense in reading my research because it’s wrong in their eyes. That’s cowardly. I feel the same about their faulty research, but I’m willing to debunk their false hoods.

Do you love me, or want God to bless me? If so, why didn't you say it? Instead, you started off in your FIRST INTERACTION with me by condemning me, saying I am off in so many ways. Was that a Christ like thing to do? I care about you, that's why I actually reply to you. Some people don't even allow comments. So I have blessed someone, you, that has not blessed me, as Jesus said I should do. I've blessed thousands of people that have not blessed me. I called you "dear friend" and you've not said the same. I wrote in "brotherly kindness and respect" and you never wrote that. Regarding demonstrating tolerance, have you ever read where Jesus looked upon the Pharisees in anger because of the harness of their hearts? Is that a Christ like characteristic, or not? Have you ever considered all the characteristics of Jesus, or just the characteristics that you agree with? I've been patient for 10 years on KZread comments. How long have you hosted a channel, podcast, and responded to your questions? Is this ministry of patiently and tolerantly making videos, podcasts, and answering hundreds if not thousands of questions, something you've experienced before? Are you able by your experience in this same ministry, able to feel what I feel, and offer prayer for me? Are you able to encourage me in trying to lead people to the cross of Jesus Christ, and then press on toward the mark of the high calling in God? Have you heard my prayers on my videos and podcasts for the accusers of Brother Branham to repent? Do you think that is a Christ like characteristic? I have yet to hear one of Brother Branham's accusers pray for me, or any other Message believer on any of their videos and podcasts. Instead, they slander us all, call Brother Branham a buffoon, liar, and many other hateful remarks. Why aren't they blessing their enemies as Jesus said? Where are their Christ like characteristics?

    Dear Caleb, No, you haven't refuted my defense of Brother Branham regarding anything. Brother Branham did not plagiarize Larkin. He thanked Larkin for his views, referenced him and historians over 20 times during the Church Ages, there's over 38 differences between Brother Branham and Larkin/Russel, and I could go on. If you go watch my videos with an honest heart, that would refute your position, dear friend. Answer: I can't prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that Brother Branham didn't have the revelation on shorts yet. I said it seems Brother Branham didn't have the revelation yet because he didn't preach against women wearing shorts until 1953, and didn't specifically preach against men wearing shorts until 1964. Brother, since Brother Branham isn't here to defend himself, all we can do is make our best judgment, but the SIN of Believe The Sign and all others attacking Brother Branham is that they jump to conclusions, slander Brother Branham, and fail to understand so many Bible doctrines. No one has ever refuted Brother Branham's major revelations on Bible doctrine, which is why I wrote the two books. And those that left the Message have NEVER tried to refute my two books because they are not sincere researchers, in my humble opinion. What do you call someone who only researches ONE side of an issue? They cannot be sincere. This is written in brotherly kindness and respect in hopes you’ll repent. God bless you.
