||'''[[Can you lose your healing?]]'''  William Branham taught that it was possible for God to supernaturally heal a person and then for that person to lose their healing.  But what does the Bible say?

||'''[[Legalism]]'''  Legalism says that we have to live a holy, good life if we want God to love us.  Why did William Branham teach this, and what does the Bible say?

||'''[[John 18:6]]'''  William Branham stated that the spirit of God left Jesus at Gethsemane and, on the cross, Jesus died as a man (and not as the Son of God). What does the Bible say about this?

||'''[[Matthew 27:46]]'''  William Branham stated that on the cross: Jesus died as a man, separated from God, died screaming for help, and crying for mercy. Sadly, while these things are believed by those that follow the message of William Branham, these things are not found in the Bible.

||'''[[El Shaddai]]'''  In one corner, we have the "Breasted God", and in the other corner we have the "Almighty God".  Who do you think will win, and why did William Branham teach that El Shaddai was the breasted God?

||'''[[Eternal Sonship]]'''. An example of William Branham's lazy theology is his approach to the concept of the eternal sonship of Christ. Why lazy?  Because he believed that God was the eternal Father...and to have a Father you have to have a Son.
