Rick Joyner is a pastor at MorningStar Fellowship, an offshoot of the Latter Rain movement. The following quote is taken from Rev. Joyner's book "The Final Quest", which he claims was received as a series of visions from God. While Rev. Joyner does not name William Branham, the description does not fit any other 20th Century evangelist:
After writing this, Rick Joyner supported the radical healing and evangelistic ministry of Todd Bentley, who claimed to have received William Branham's mantle from Emma, William Branham's angel. Any Message Believer would call Todd Bentley out on this, as William Branham said that his angel was a man, and that there are no women angels. Todd later went on to commit adultery, putting his 'revival meetings' on hold while he divorced and remarried, then returned to preach. If William Branham was a fraud, then Rick Joyner (with his vision of William Branham as a messenger to the last-day church) and Todd Bentley (with his vision of William Branham's angel Emma), are also frauds.
