:''Do you remember years ago when I first, when we had the little bitty structure here, and I was prophesying, and said, "It shall come to pass in the last days, don't live in a valley and don't eat eggs." I've got it on my book. I thought there was something about that, and I went and looked at it. "Don't eat eggs." That was way back in 1933. Eggs has got something in them now, and I see where science says that a man over fifty years old should never eat an egg, because it's the hardest thing on a heart that can be eaten. Diseases!''

:''When I heard that egg situation the other day, I went back in my book where the Lord spoke to me in 1931, and there I had written in my book, "In the last days, warn the people not to eat eggs or live in a valley." And, see, not know what fallout and things would be, see, but yet the Lord forewarned that, way back thirty years ago, see, "Not to live in a valley, in the last days," and, "Don't eat eggs," everything will be poisoned. See? And that's just what's happened. Now imagine that, thirty something years ago.'' (Sermon: There is Only One Way Provided By God For Anything, July 31, 1963, Chicago, IL) | |||

William Branham ate eggs, fed them to his children, and lived near the Ohio river. When asked about this prophecy in 1964, he said ''“it’s written in the scripture that no food should be received without it being received with thanksgiving, for it’s sanctified by the Word of God and prayer.”'' | William Branham ate eggs, fed them to his children, and lived near the Ohio river.
