Question

What did Brother Branham say started the sorrows in his life?

Answer

And—and there, friends, is where my sorrows started. I listened to my mother-in-law in the stead of God. He was giving me the opportunity.

Question

How can a person be perfect, as the Father in heaven is perfect?

Answer

Now, when you see anything, search it, look through it. “Well,” did Jesus say, “if you’d have knowed Me, you would’ve knowed My days. Didn’t Isaiah speak of Me and so forth?” Now, all the prophets spoke of this day. Isn’t that right? These things would be taking place in this day. And said in the la...

Is it right to argue or debate over the Word of God?

Answer

But don’t never argue with people. You just stand still and let God do the arguing. I wouldn’t argue, wouldn’t debate with no one. I don’t believe in it in the first place.

If Jesus was called Beelzebub, how will those of His household be treated?
