=Where did William Branham say he got his revelation from?= | |||
' | William Branham said this about his "revelation" of the second seal: | ||
< | |||
==William Branham's Revelation of the Second Seal== | |||
For the third horse rider, the red horse, William Branham said the following: | |||
273 Same rider, now. This first stage, he was innocent. And second, now, if you went a little bit higher, a little more than that; the second stage, the Bible said he’d be “given a crown.” And they crowned a man, a superman. See, crowned him! And, then, the Bible didn’t call him a pope. The Bible called him a “false prophet.” Why? Yeah. Of course, he must be a false prophet, by his antichrist spirit, that taught antichrist against the original Word. Cause, if he taught against the original Word, it was antichrist. It was. And the Word is God, see, Christ. All right. Now, after that, we find him then crowned. And when he got crowned, now, he’s very innocent and helpless. He’s just a little fellow. 274 But then in the Nicaea Council, he was made it, and Constantine give him all the property. And then what did he do? Then he, see, Satan, give him his throne and authority. The Bible said so, as we’ve went through it. 275 Now, the next thing we find out, that the devil controls all politics that ever has been or ever will be. We find that in Matthew 4:11. And now we find out, then, that Satan already had politics.<ref>William Branham, 63-0320 - The Third Seal, para. 273-275</ref> | |||
==Comparison to the teachings of Charles Taze Russell== | |||
As with the first two Seals, we again compare William Branham's teaching above to what Charles Taze Russel said in the 1918 book, The Finished Mystery: | |||
:''6:8. And I looked, and behold a pale horse.—The ghastly and horrible teachings that God's true people must be “exterminated.” “The ghastly green of terror and of death. The word is used of grass in Rev. 8:7; 9:4; Mark 6:39.”—Cook. | |||
:''And his name that sat on him was Death.—'''Still the same rider, the Papacy;''' and an apt description of its chief claim to recognition during the pre-Reformation period. | |||

'''If William Branham discovered the errors of Denominations during the Third Seal, why did he preach “Why are we not a denomination” (also titled “The Great Harlot”) on September 27, 1958 and identify “the mark of the beast, which is Romanism; and the image of the beast, which is Protestantism” in a sermon on March 18, 1962?''' | '''If William Branham discovered the errors of Denominations during the Third Seal, why did he preach “Why are we not a denomination” (also titled “The Great Harlot”) on September 27, 1958 and identify “the mark of the beast, which is Romanism; and the image of the beast, which is Protestantism” in a sermon on March 18, 1962?''' | ||
