Jim Jones
The infamous Jim Jones was responsible for the deaths of 909 of his followers by cyanide poisoning in Jonestown, Guyana on November 18, 1978. 303 of the casualties were children. In addition, Jones' followers also killed Congressman Leo Ryan and four others immediately prior to the mass slaughter of his followers. These deaths constituted the greatest single loss of American civilian life in a deliberate act until the September 11, 2001 attack.
William Branham's assistance to Jim Jones
William Branham preached a three day campaign in June, 1956 at the Cadle Tabernacle in Indianapolis, IN with Jim Jones. This three day campaign was attended by over 11, 000 people and sky-rocketed Jim Jones to fame by following on the coattails of William Branham.[1]
The sermons that William Branham preached at the Cadle Tabernacle were not included in the 1996 or 2010 releases of "The Table", published by Voice of God Recordings.
It seems that Voice of God Recordings took notice to complaints by this website and others. As a result, portions of the missing sermons appear to have been added to the 2013 online version of The Table, however, Voice of God Recordings seems to have avoided listing them on their Tape Index and Message Audio page. We have not yet analyzed these audio clips to determine where the [blank spot in tape -ed] have been placed.
