Re: Is The Serpent Seed Doctine A "Damnable Heresy

That could not have been said better except for one thing. Bro Branham said, if you love me call me "brother". So I always call him Bro. Branham.

But all, in all, that was a wonderful post! And that is just the way I want it! The Bible exactly as it is without some theologian's slant to it.

Bro. Branham was a vindicated prophet and those who are contradicting him definitely are NOT vindicated.

A theologian once said to me, "Bro. Branham was all mixed up". I said, "Well here we have Bro. Branham all mixed up and you all straightened out and God did more with him mixed up than he ever has done with you and you being all straightened out...I think I would rather follow the teaching of the mixed up man since that is so".

He based everything on the Word of God being fully vindicated

I believe Bro Branham was used of God genuinely. No doubt about it. But we cannot go by signs and wonders to say everything a man proposed was vindicated. Jesus said many would come to Him saying, "Lord, Lord, have we not cast out devils, performed many wonderful works..." And Jesus will respond He never knew them. Not saying those who work signs and wonders are lost, but I am saying this shows signs and wonders do not vindicate a man of God. I am not saying Branham was lost either, btw.

Re: Is The Serpent Seed Doctine A "Damnable Heresy

From Wikipedia

Branham predicted (as opposed to prophesying) "that 1977 ought to terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium." [76] He explained on several occasions that these were only his words and not the words of God, and that he might quite easily be wrong.[7

now thats some pretty fair reporting of the FACTS not the myths

Honesy from a CRITIC -- from Wikipedia

D.R. McConnell, although a critic of William Branham's teaching, expressed this opinion about his ministry: "Branham, one of the original and greatests evangelists of the post-World War II Healing Revival. Branham worked astounding miracles of healing in his crusades. To this day his gifts of supernatural knowledge of those to whom he ministered remains unparalleled, even among modern healing evangelists"

Re: Is The Serpent Seed Doctine A "Damnable Heresy

Another Critic - Andrew Strom, another theologian who disagreed with Branham doctrinally, nevertheless concluded: "William Branham was another evangelist mid-way through last century who was mightily used of God for a number of years. In fact, there can be little doubt that he was endued with power to a degree that has rarely been seen since the days of the apostles
