Well if fruit incudes our doctrine I would say Branham has as much chance as most Apostolic Preachers. They teach much false doctrine till this day and are praised for it regularly by their followers.

Sometimes the "in" thing and most "anointed" preacher is dangerous...

I can't say that I know one whit about what did or didn't happen around branham's life. All I can say for sure is that the product today of his ministry and teaching has produced some of the most hellish things I have ever come across. I live in an area that has a very large branhamite church and daily see the effects of this so-called prophet. A prophet who could produce such and ungodly mess is no prophet of God to me. I don't care who's aunt Elma got her goiter healed at his tent meeting.

I checked out William Branham's teaching on SS after I was told he said some people are the seed of the Serpent (as a result of the sexual union between Eve and the Serpent) and they cannot be saved, while others are the seed of Adam, and they will be saved. I found out that's not what he said at all. Yes, he did say the original sin was adultery, but nowhere did he teach that salvation is anything to do with race or genetic ancestry.

I think the best understanding of what he did say is found in his book "An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages" - the comments contained in this book can be easily found by entering the words serpent and seed in 'Message Search' at the Voice of God Recordings website.

I did not find this idea too remarkable - perhaps because I had heard some Pentecostal ministers teaching that the "sons of God" in Genesis 6:4 were heavenly angels who had sexual relations with human women and produced children who grew up to become giants. Personally, I think there is more Biblical support for William Branham's idea.

And I think we should keep in mind this comment he made about SS: "Course we realize that that doesn't save a man, neither does it condemn a man, but it only brings light upon the subject"

Branham did teach that the serpent seed was NOT the elect but children of the devil. He said the serpent had a place for a soul but did not have a soul.

Kenod...

Are you a follower of "The Message?"

In regards to the bolden part above, I've heard a few folk make this absurd speculation without careful thought behind it. Nevertheless, regardless how silly this idea might be, it does not in anyway validate the teachings of the Serpent's Seed.

It is my opinion that rather than being angles, the sons of God were simply the righteous who comingled with the unrighteous daughters of the unrighteous. As conditions grew worse from that unholy union, it brought on the wrath of God that was shown in the flood.
