Question

What did God create when He overshadowed the virgin?

Answer

Now, Jesus in flesh was Deity. God overshadowed a virgin and created a Blood Cell. We all know that the—the child, or the…comes from the male sex. The germ of life of any thing comes from the male. Like an hen can lay an egg, but if she hasn’t been with the male bird, it’ll never hatch. An old mothe...

Question

What does Christ as High Priest work on?

Answer

But when you believe you have, you say, “Yes, I am.” Then you believe you’re a Christian; you can’t show nothing that you are. But you believe you are. You believe you are. And then when you confess that you are, and when you confess Him, and He confesses you, He’s a High Priest working on what? Not...

Question

What did the Logos look like when it went out of God?

Answer

And now, the Bible teaches us that the Logos went out of God, or I might say, all of the—the God becoming His first body form when the Logos went out of God. Let’s look what It looked like. No one has seen the Father at any time, nowhere, never did and never will. But then the Logos that went out of...

Question

Who was the Angel of the Lord in the bush where Moses took off his shoes?

Answer

And what if Moses said, “I will just take off my hat, Lord, that’ll be just as good.” But God didn’t tell him his hat, He said, his shoes. I believe we must do just what the Scripture says do, no matter how hard it seems, and how indifferent from our teaching, we’ve got to do what God said do. He sa...

Question

What does the word 'testify' mean?

Answer

“Oh,” you say, “yeah, but I know. But here it is.” Oh, sure, the snakes are there too. Your name is penned unto it. He might’ve marked you for a death with a cancer, with anything else. But refuse to see it. No, sir. “By His stripes I’m healed.” “Testify” means “say the same thing.” If I testify in...

Question

What does it mean that Jesus is the High Priest of our confession?

Answer

Divine healing lays in Calvary. And the only thing that you can do is point to Calvary. And there’s where your salvation lays. You wasn’t saved just five years ago, ten years ago, or twenty years ago, or how long it was. You wasn’t saved then. See? You were saved nineteen hundred years ago. When Jes...

Question

Did Jesus read people's minds?

Answer

Someone said the other day, said, “Brother Branham, do you say Jesus was a mind-reader?” Sure. He perceived their thoughts. Call it whatever you want to.

Question

What does John 5:19 mean by 'the Son can do nothing of Himself'?

Answer

He did—did not do a thing within Himself until God showed Him a vision of what was being done. That’s His own Word, Saint John 5:19. “Verily, verily I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself, but what He sees the Father doing: that doeth the Son likewise. And He will show you greater things...

Question

How can a person be a witness to the resurrection of Christ?

Answer

So, therefore, no man can exactly witness to the resurrection of Christ, only by the Holy Spirit. You have to be a personal witness, yourself; being there, knowing something about it, knowing what you’re talking about.

Question

What did David foresee when he said God would not suffer His Holy One to see corruption?

Answer

I think of David, when he was getting old. Being a great king that he was, God had swore to him, according to the fruits of his loins he would raise up Christ to sit on His right hand. Then I see David, when he was old, getting down to the end of his road, and all the physical strength was just abou...

Question

How can a person know that Jesus rose from the dead?

Answer

That’s the way it is with every man or woman, when he is born of the Spirit of God, and sees the true resurrection. No man knows that Jesus is resurrected from the dead, unless he has died, himself, in Christ Jesus, and been born again, anew by the Holy Ghost. Every man is only theologically believi...

Question

Who was the Angel that followed Israel through the wilderness?

Answer

Now to the Branham Tabernacle, and to you who are associated and know these truths, did you know that same Pillar of Fire is with us tonight? You remember having His picture taken down yonder, and how It’s swept across the world now, the same Pillar of Fire that followed Moses back there in the burn...

Question

What should someone do who can accept their healing only mentally?

Answer

Now, healing is not something that you just say, “Well, I…yeah, I believe it. I believe it.” Now, that’s all right. If that’s the best you can do, just mentally, or just say, “Well, I…Yes, I—I see it. I believe that; I accept it.” Then if you accept it on those basis, keep saying it over and over. S...

Question

What does it mean that Jesus is the High Priest of our confession?

Answer

Listen close. You’ll never live above your confession. Jesus is the High Priest of our confession (Is that right? Now, Hebrews 3:1, now any scholar knows that same word “profession” is “confession” too, same translated.), now setting at the right hand of the Father to make intercessions upon what? O...

Question

Who was the Pillar of Fire that led Israel out of Egypt?

Answer

And that Pillar of Fire, or the Angel, was the Angel of the covenant. I believe all ministers would agree with that, that That was the Angel of the covenant. If It was the Angel of the covenant, then It was the Lord Jesus, It was God the Holy Spirit. For Moses chose to—to suffer the reproach of Chri...

Question

Does the verse 'Jesus wept' prove that Jesus was only a man?

Answer

She said, “I can prove to you by the Bible if you’ll just open up your mind that he was only a man.” I said, “Do it by the Bible and I’ll believe it.” She said, “When he went down to that resurrection of Lazarus…” said, “On his road down there, he cried with the rest the people. The Bible said, ‘Jes...

Question

Where did Jesus' blood come from, since He was born of a virgin?

Answer

The—the germ of life, to the child, comes from the male sex, we know that, don’t we? It’s like a hen can lay an egg, but if she hasn’t been with the male bird, it’s not fertile. See? It won’t hatch. The germ of life comes from the male. So the germ of Life in this case, come from Jehovah God, the Fa...

Question

What were the swaddling clothes the baby Jesus was wrapped in?

Answer

Let’s look down along that line this morning. There stands this little mother and that one here. Way down there I see a gap between them. What is it?

Question

Why did the Magi see the star when no one else did?

Answer

I can imagine some of them saying, “Say, the old man’s got kind of old, you know. There’s something wrong with his mind. He’s going around there saying that he’s going to see the Christ. Just think, an old man like that, nearly a hundred years old now, walking around here saying he’s going to see th...

Question

Why did Jesus meet Satan's temptations with 'It is written' rather than the gifts God gave Him?

Answer

As I was speaking this afternoon of the Deity of Jesus Christ, the Father in Him, all God was—give His gifts into His Son that it might be manifested in the earth. When He met Satan, He never used one of them. He brought it down to show that the weakest of Christians… Satan comes in and says, “If…”...
