Question

How did Brother Branham come to have his Divine gift?

Answer

Oh, no, friend. I—I’m your brother. And I’m telling you the truth, as my heart before God. If I’ve—if I’ve found grace in your sight, you believe me tonight as God’s prophet. As far as the Divine gift, that’s the truth. Here lays the Bible. It’s over my heart. With all my heart that’s the truth. See...

Question

Did Brother Branham consider himself a preacher or a prophet?

Answer

Now, I’m not much of a preacher, as it comes to a preacher, because my education is limited. See? But I—I love the Lord. But now, He’s give me another thing to bring the Gospel to the people. That’s in this manner, as a prophet, as a seer that sees things before it comes to pass and what’s going to...

Question

What did Brother Branham believe the Light that hung over him at his birth to be?

Answer

Very well, Brother Kopp. Let’s go back to the beginning. I was born in eastern Kentucky, in a little log cabin near Burkesville, Kentucky. The morning of my birth, I’m told of my parents, that there was a Light came into the room and hung over me. My people was not a religious people. They did not g...

Question

What did the Voice that spoke from the whirlwind in the tree tell Brother Branham?

Answer

Passing by there, there was a whirl of wind in the tree, what we call here a whirlwind. Why, it was nothing odd for that time of year in this part of the country. But it remained in the tree. It didn’t leave. I stopped to see what it was. And a Voice spoke from It, saying, “Do not never smoke, or dr...

Question

What two signs was Brother Branham told he would have, as Moses had?

Answer

Of course, I was frightened, and he said to me, “Fear not.” And as soon as I heard that voice, I knew it was the same voice that had always spoke to me, but the first time I had ever seen Him in human form. He said, “I am sent from the Presence of God to tell you that you’re to pray for sick people....

Question

Will there be, or is there now a place for the Bride to gather together to live, like when Moses led the children of Israel?

Answer

I’m going to answer that question for you; it was just revealed to me. I’m going to tell you the truth. Yes, sir! There’s a place for all the Bride to gather. You want to know where it’s at? In Christ. Correct. Just gather in there; we’re all together.

Question

Brother Branham, a sister came to the tabernacle some eight hundred miles, and she said she believed you are Jesus Christ incarnate. Please speak on this. She was very (i-m-p-a-…) impatient in trying to tell others what she thinks. (I-m-p-a-h-a-…) Impatience. All right.

Answer

Now, course the sister was wrong. I am not Jesus Christ; I am His servant. We’ve went through that so many times. But… Oh, I’m getting pretty close now; just pray for me, just a little bit longer.

Question

How can we find the will of the Lord? Our—our home to…Should we move our home to Jeffersonville, Indiana? Can a person be a Christian and dislike a colored people? Does God not want them to be treated like us, ’cause they are dark in color? Would you…? What do you suggest in this? Do you believe in integration or segregation?

Answer

I believe in integration. I believe that a man…No matter what his color is or who he is, he’s a man just like I am. That’s exactly. And I believe, if they’d just leave those colored people alone, and them communists didn’t get out there and inspire them… Now, they wanted…Now, the real genuine color...

Question

Brother Branham, when you prophesy about: won’t eat eggs, don’t live in the valley, was that prophecy just for you or for the congregation? All right.

Answer

Years ago, about thirty years ago, I gave a prophecy that it would come to pass that in the last days that there would be diseases amongst animals, amongst cattle, and eggs, even to eggs. It come to pass, that there’d be eggs that wouldn’t be fit to eat. Also, it would come to pass that people livin...

Question

Do all who go in the Bride have to live within the fifteen hundred miles of the tabernacle (I believe I had that again last Sunday. I’ll just have to pick them up and use them as I can.)—fifteen hundred miles of the tabernacle, as it sounds like on tape number two of the “Future Home of the Bride”? I always thought that the Bride would come out of all parts of the world at the time of the Rapture. Am I wrong?

Answer

No, my dear friend, you are not wrong, you’re right. Now, if I said anything under the tape that would lead you to believe… Now, I haven’t…These are all new to me now, I’ve never looked in—in these here. You see? These are new bunch that I got the other Sunday, and put them back in this envelope, an...

Question

Please explain. People are saying Brother Branham is more than a man, he can create, and Jesus can look just like Brother Branham.

Answer

Now, let me…The person said this. Whoever it might be, I don’t know. But I am your brother. See? Jesus is your Saviour. I cannot be your Saviour, for He has already saved you. Now, you’re so close to being the Truth there, and yet so far from the Truth, the person that told this person this. Now, it...

Question

Brother Branham, someone wants to know why you were not (m-e-n-…) mentioned in the Bible. I believe you are Habakkuk 2:1-4. (Get that, Brother Neville, Habakkuk 2:1-4) Let them read this and study it, 3rd chapter…think name and types of four chapters, believe—I believe is you.

Answer

Now, while he’s hunting that, it’s Habakkuk 2:1-4. Brother or Sister, ever who ask the question (there’s no name), that’s fine, I—I like for you to ask those things. I know what’s on your heart (see?), and then I’ll tell you. No. See? You wouldn’t have to necessarily have your name in the Bible, see...

Question

Now. Brother Branham, is it true that no one should preach but you? We have seen your—we have seen you ordained men. We do—don’t believe you would do that if there were not…if they were not to preach.

Answer

Mercy! Brother, sister, ever who told you that nobody’s to preach but me, I’d sure be a poor subject to God with all that. No! Every man or…that feels a call of God upon his life, get into the ministry and start preaching; we need them. Men of God are anointed all over the world to preach the Gospe...

Question

Brother Branham (We got just ten minutes now.)—Brother Branham, we have no preacher where we live, but we have tape service on Sunday night only. Should we take our children to another church for Sunday school? Are the tape services sufficient?

Answer

Well, let that be according to the way your children are going. See? Now, if you get your children, they’re young, and you get them out into some kind of a group out there, that’ll just pound the stuff into them that they—that they—they shouldn’t know; I wouldn’t do it. If they—if they seem to learn...

Question

Dearly beloved: (Let’s see.) About the Scripture of Ephesians 4:11 through 13, do we all (Let’s see.)—do we get all the perfecting of saints through the tapes, or should we be here, where the gifts of the Spirit are operating and the different offices of the church, to help perfect us? Our hearts have believed all the Word of the Lord.

Answer

Now this person is from Oregon. Now, my dear…I believe I know who it is. See? It’s…Oh, yes, I do, I certainly do. Your—your boy…If the person’s here, I know you’re…If you’re not, it might’ve been last Sunday. See? This might’ve come in from last Sunday’s. But your—your son flies conservation, see, a...

Question

How do you feel about birth control?

Answer

I had some of that on the interviews this morning. I’d rather talk personally with—with you on those things (see?), on those things there, ’cause there’s words and things that I have to say, that I…I’d rather say it if the husband and wife… And there is a possibility of it being done in the right w...

Question

Some say Brother Branham is the Son of man. I thought the Pillar of Fire was the Son of man. Am I mistaken?

Answer

Well, that’s a good question, very good. But I am not the Son of man, but a son of man. There’s quite a difference. Jesus Christ was the Son of man, the Son of God, the Son of man, the Son of David. Now, the reason that question probably was asked this person or been said, because people regard me...

Question

Brother Branham, we want to be close to your Message as possible. Shall we move to Arizona or Jeffersonville?

Answer

Suit yourself, either one. I sure love you, I don’t care where you go, what you do. But now, as advice, I believe I’d come to Jeffersonville. If you’re going to move anyhow, I’d come to Jeff. I believe I’m here more than I am in Arizona. That’s fine.

Question

…this the Third Pull and is speaking the Word. It seems entirely possible for you to speak the word and one would be completely and fully restored, placed entirely ready for the Rapture in the resurrection, the Son of man. This is so, or is it not? And you would do this if properly pressed upon, would you not? “Escape all these things (it’s got a ditto there)—escape all these things and stand before the Son of man”? (Luke 21:36)

Answer

Now, my—my dear friend. See? Now, I think here that you—you—you got a—you got a good statement. Yes, sir! Yes, sir! Now, that would be so. You said, “Brother Branham…” In other words, here’s what I’m…I don’t think that it’s…I can…I believe I…Not polishing up what you said, but I believe I can make i...
