=Where did William Branham get this doctrine?=
In 1910, Benjamin Purnell from the House of David in Benton, Michigan published a book entitled, "The Star of Bethlehem" which contained details of the Serpent's Seed doctrines: 
:''Adam was placed in a garden eastward in Eden, as keeper and lord of the garden; and Eve, the mother of all living (soul) with him as a helpmeet, and not a helpmate — nor did she help him, except to the grave. The serpent beast was a preacher, called Gad- rel. And the proof is, he preached to Eve, and trans formed the word of the Lord God, and said to her, Yea hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden, etc. (p.191)
:''Eve did partake of that which was forbidden, and gave unto her husband, and he did eat; (which was Adam — he representing her spiritual husband, being immortal;) but by this act fell, and received the blood with the tares, which she had re ceived from Gadrel in this act of adultery and fornication... (p.308)<ref>Purnell, Benjamin F. and Mary S., "The Star of Bethlehem", Benton Harbor, MI, 1910</ref>
We know byt William Branham's own admission that he preached at The House of David.  is this where he got his doctrine of the Serpent's Seed?
