'''Why does William Branham state that there were no airplanes in his area when he appears to be referring to the magazine article which is talking about the area around Flagstaff, some 200 miles away?'''
'''Why does William Branham state that there were no airplanes in his area when he appears to be referring to the magazine article which is talking about the area around Flagstaff, some 200 miles away? It is also interesting to note that Gene Norman stated that after the “blast” occurred he looked up and saw “two long streaks like, ah, like a plane leaving a trail.”  Local newspaper reports from the Springerville area (just minutes from Rattlesnake Mesa at supersonic speeds) at the time also referred to residents reporting sonic booms.  As a result, it is realistic to draw a conclusion that the “blast” was actually a sonic boom.'''

'''Are you surprised that you haven't noticed these quotes earlier?  It appears that even Billy Paul Branham was confused by all of this, believing himself that his dad was hunting below the cloud when it appeared. Here is what Billy Paul said in the preface to the book, The Revelation of the Seven Seals. '''  
'''It appears that even Billy Paul Branham was confused by all of this, believing himself that his dad was hunting below the cloud when it appeared. Here is what Billy Paul said in the preface to the book, The Revelation of the Seven Seals. It is interesting to note that newer versions of the Seals book do not contain this language. '''  


:''The Word of the Lord has promised that He would send to the earth once again the spirit of Elijah in the form of that End Time Messenger who was the Angel to the Seventh Church Age in these final closing days of time. We believe firmly that this promise was fulfilled in the vindicated ministry of our precious brother, William Marrion Branham. Throughout the life of this humble servant of the Lord, who so epitomized the Spirit of Christ, we find manifestations of God, which were so perfectly vindicated that they cannot be explained away by any natural reasoning. Of the hundreds of thousands of visions which the Lord gave to Brother Branham around the world, not one time has there ever occurred a vision which was not confirmed and attested to be the Word of the Lord. On December 30, 1962 at the Branham Tabernacle, Jeffersonville, Indiana, Brother Branham brought a message entitled Sirs, Is This The Time? [The Spoken Word Vol. II No.11] In this Message he told of a vision that instructed him to move to Tucson, Arizona with his family. This vision foretold a blast that would take place, the force of which would shake the whole country. '''<u>This vision was fulfilled on Feb. 28, 1963 when 40 miles northeast of Tucson, Brother Branham was caught up in a constellation of seven angels and was told to return to his church in Jeffersonville, Indiana, where the mysteries of the Seven Seals would be revealed to him</u>.'''

The events related to the “Cloud” when compared with William Branham’s story have a significant negative impact on his credibility.
ABM, you have previously stated that William Branham “embellished and exaggerated frequently” and that he had a “propensity to exaggerate.“
Personally, I think he is just outright lying based on a magazine story that he thought he could use to further promote himself as a prophet.
'''The smoking gun is that he mentioned none of the events related to the cloud until 3 months after the appearance of the cloud.'''
Why should we not reject everything that William Branham has to say about the cloud?
Shalom,
