William Branham and Billy Graham
William Branham believed that, just as three messengers went to Abraham in the days of Sodom, so three messengers came to the church in our day. These three messengers were William Branham, Billy Graham and Oral Roberts. William Branham taught that Oral Roberts and Billy Graham were the two messengers that went to Sodom. But William Branham was God himself, the angel that did not go down to Sodom.

Quotes of William Branham
He said, here in Mark, the—the 17th chapter and the 30th verse, He said, “As it was in the days of Sodom.” Now go back. Jesus was referring to the same Genesis that we’re referring to. “In the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man.” Now go back and look what it was in the days of Sodom, then see where we’re at and see what’s supposed to happen now. In the days of Sodom, when…
Abraham, which was a type, he…We, only being dead in Christ, take on Abraham’s seed, and are heirs with him according to the promise. Any of you in the court, this afternoon, knows that. Watch Abraham. He received all kinds of signs, everything, from the supernatural God in the form of a Light, going between sacrifice. He received Him in a voice, and so forth. But the last sign that Abraham received upon the hill from Sodom, just before the Gentile world was destroyed, was God Himself in the form of a human Being. You understand, court? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] There was three Messengers come up to him. Three Messengers, and he went out to meet them.
Two of them, a modern Oral Roberts and Billy Graham, goes down into Sodom and preach the Gospel, and blinded them with their Gospel. But this One that set back there, that eat the flesh of a calf, drank the milk from a cow, and eat bread, and Abraham washed His feet. And He set there, a Man. And He said…[1]
God making Himself known among His people like He did to Abraham, by His promise here that the Son of man would reveal Himself in the days that the world become in a Sodom condition.”
And there was three messengers went forth, come down from Heaven. And there was a denominational group down in Sodom, and a Billy Graham and a Oral Roberts went down there. And remember as I’ve told you, nowhere in the history of the church has there ever been a messenger sent universal to the church, until now, with his name ending like Abraham, h-a-m. G-r-a-h-a-m, six letters, to the world, man’s number.
But Abraham had seven letters in the name, God’s complete and perfect number. See? And notice what the messengers did that went out in there: preached the Word, called them out, told them to repent.
But the One Who stayed back with Abraham, see, performed a miracle by telling Abraham what Sarah was doing and thinking in the tent behind Him. And Jesus, Who was the One that was in this Person, said, “When the world gets in a Sodom condition, like it was then, the Son of man will be revealed again.” And all the other Scriptures confirming that to be so.[2]
