||[[Matthew 24:28]] says "For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together" in the King James Version. The English Standard Version says "Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather." How does this simple change impact Message doctrine?   
||[[An Uncertain Sound|A prophet or not a prophet?]]. William Branham said that he was a prophet.  Then he said that he never said he was a prophet.  Then he said he was a prophet.  Then he said he wasn't a prophet.  Who is right in this argument, and why?

||[[The Prophet and The Eagle]]. William Branham taught that a prophet is represented by an Eagle in the Bible.  So, pick up your Bible and let's check if this is really the case.  
||What does it mean to have [[Fallen From Grace]]?  Is it how you dress? Or is it something radical like replacing faith in Jesus Christ with a man-made law?

||[[Enoch and Noah]] were on the Earth preaching at the same time, according to William Branham.  Enoch represented the wise virgin while Noah represented the foolish virgin. Is this what the Bible actually teaches?
