 #[[Nikita Khrushchev|Was the meeting of Nikita Khrushchev and Dwight Eisenhower the fulfillment of Daniel chapter 2?]] '''(Failed Prophecy)'''
-A number of his prophecies changed significantly over time:
+=After the fact prophecies=
+William Branham related his supernatural experiences so that people
+would believe he was a prophet. While he came across as very humble, it
+was clear from the start of his ministry that he wanted people to believe
+in him and to revere him as a prophet of God:
+If I come here to Phoenix in the name of a prophet, and I do not
+the things that a prophet does, then don’t believe me.151
+Do you believe I’m His prophet that was sent here for your
+purpose …152
+And you believe in me as His prophet, is that right?153
+… if you believe in me to be His prophet or His servant, you believe
+that I’m telling you the Truth.154
+As a servant of God, I never said this before, in the world, in this
+church, I never said. But as a prophet of the Lord, I say to you,
+“This is the Light. Walk ye in It.”155
+The Visions of 1933
+And you people even believe in me to be a prophet; I don’t claim
+to be.156
+If you believe me to be God’s prophet, you listen to what I’ve
+told you.157
+William Branham related the prophecies of 1933 as part of his pitch
+to get people to believe him. He had to show that the prophecies he made
+were being fulfilled to convince people that he was a prophet:
+Five of those things has perfectly been fulfilled exactly.158
+But William Branham admitted that he didn’t make his prophecies
+public until after they were fulfilled:
+And there was a book there I write visions in. When as they’re
+fulfilled, I mark them off, before I tell the people.159
+A prophecy of something that will happen in the future, made public
+in advance of the thing happening, is a “before the fact” prophecy. A
+prophecy that is only made public after the prophecy is fulfilled is an
+“after the fact” prophecy.
+William Branham only announced his prophecies “after the fact.” As
+a result, they cannot be classified as prophecies. Branham’s prophecies
+should be amazingly accurate, since he could adjust them to match the
+historical events as they transpired. His policy was not to make “before
+the fact” prophecies.
+=Prophecies which changed significantly over time=
-A number of prophecies were simply after the fact prophecies:
+=The Vision he ignored=
+There is one specific vision that he completely ignored... was this from God?
-Then there is one specific vision that he completely ignored... was this from God?
