One issue in recognizing these prophecies as authentic is that William Branham's recorded sermons are the only source as to their accuracy and timing.  This presents a problem as William Branham often included facts when describing these prophecies that are historically inaccurate.  It is known that William Branham kept a book of his prophecies<ref> Souls That are in Prison Now, November 10, 1963</ref>; however, the contents of this book have never been released to the public.   
A significant issue in trying to determine whether these prophecies are authentic is that William Branham's recorded sermons are the only source as to their accuracy and timing.  This presents a problem as William Branham often included facts when describing these prophecies that are historically inaccurate.  William Branham stated that he kept a book of his prophecies<ref> Souls That are in Prison Now, November 10, 1963</ref>; however, the contents of this book were never released to the public. It is our understanding that this book was apparently "lost" after William Branham's death, although how this could happen is difficult to understandSome have speculated that it was intentionally destroyed or hidden because its contents were not supportive of the claims that William Branham made.
