What's this Branhamism?
Ok, so I see this group being discussed, and I know VERY little about Branhamites. Dr. V I guess is a Branhamite, and it seems he is more than willing to give info on his group, so, Dr. V, perhaps if you wanted to answer my questions you could enlighten me on Branhamism, and if anyone else wants to contribute, maybe we could make this a Branhamite 101 type thing, for people like me, who know very little.
Now, I've been to that "Sign" website, where there's the light beam thing by Branham's head and whatnot, but unfortunately, there was little info on that website that I could understand.
Here's what I think I know about Branham so far; they're not dogmatic about the Godhead, they baptize in JESUS' name (?), I don't know if they believe in speaking in tongues, and they believe in a sort of hyper-Calvinistic predestination known as "serpent seed doctrine". How am I doing so far? Later on, I'd be interested to find out how these people worship, where they have meetings, what the singing and preaching is like, ect...
I came across some Branhamites one time at a funeral in Canada I was at, but I didn't talk to them or anything, they were just friends of the Pentecostal family who's relative had passed. They seemed to dress by fairly conservative standards, other than that, though, I didn't talk with them, so there's little I know.
GOD BLESS!
Bro. Alex
