-In the past, God has always spoken through individuals specially chosen to bring His word.  People like Paul, Columba, and John Wesley brought the message of God to their age.  The same is true today.
-Rumors began spreading in the late 1940s about a man whose ministry was so powerful he could heal cancer and even raise the dead.  As independent sources confirmed each other, some basic facts began to emerge: the man's name was William Branham, he was uneducated but taught that an Angel had commissioned him to heal the sick, he preached only about Jesus Christ and faith in God's name, and people were indeed healed by his prayers.  By 1950, it was confirmed that he had even been used by God to raise the dead.
+When Jesus walked on earth, healing and miracles followed his teachings.  These same signs followed his early disciples, so much that the Apostle Paul said "Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?" (Acts 26:8)
-The purpose of this incredible ministry was simply to draw attention to Jesus Christ.  Once you begin to look at the Bible through the message and ministry of William Branham, you will start to understand that Jesus Christ is in the process of fulfilling his promise to return, and that the Bible is truly relevant today.
+Jesus left a commission to his disciples to carry his teachings around the world.  Jesus also left a promise that wherever his words were carried, supernatural signs and miracles would occur similar to those signs that followed his own ministry.  We invite you to examine the evidence of supernatural signs and miracles in the church today, and throughout history.
-We invite you to examine the evidence.  Look, learn, listen, watch, read, explore...
+Explore this website...and you will discover that Jesus Christ is alive today, and that his words are just as relevant today as they were 2000 years ago!

-George J. Lacy was asked to determine whether or not the light could have been the result of improper exposure, developing or retouching. This investigation served to completely authenticate the fact that the unusual brightness was definitely caused by a light striking the negative, even though there was no natural light source behind William Branham at the time...
