Mixing Law and Grace

Video Script

William Branham said that he preached the same message that Paul preached. In a vision of a heavenly place, he hears his converts shouting “We are resting on that!”

So let’s compare Paul’s doctrine of “Falling from Grace” with what William Branham taught.

Paul wrote in the letter to the Galatians that “whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.”

He asked them - “having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?”

In 1963 William Branham said:

A boy with “britches hanging off his hips… and his hair hanging down his neck like a Mrs. Kennedy's water-head haircut” has fallen from grace.

Then in 1965 he stated:

“A Christian who would marry a woman [with Bobbed hair, shorts, paint], it shows he has fallen from grace.”

So Paul, teaches that when you replace the Holy Spirit with laws and regulations, you fall from grace. That’s why he wrote:

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”

William Branham, on the other hand, claimed that a person’s outward appearance tells whether they have fallen from grace. Dressing according to William Branham’s standard of what was right is obedience to a law – it is a yoke of bondage that cannot make anyone perfect. You can’t be perfect by the flesh. What justifies us is believing that Jesus Christ gave himself for our sins.

Nothing More.

So William Branham taught a different gospel than Paul with regards to what it means to fall from grace.

Paul taught in Romans that “The just shall live by faith”

The Book of Hebrews says that we are “sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.”

And the book of Galatians tells us that we “receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”

This is the gospel that Paul preached – it is a gospel of grace, deliverance and inheritance through faith in Jesus Christ.
