While William Branham stated that there were seven visions, he added the Roosevelt prophecy (in 1958); the egg-shaped, driverless car is clearly two prophecies; and he added an additional prophecy on November 13, 1960 (that he had never previously told) relating to women electing the wrong man. | While William Branham stated that there were '''seven visions''', he added the Roosevelt prophecy (in 1958); the egg-shaped, driverless car is clearly two prophecies; and he added an additional prophecy on November 13, 1960 (that he had never previously told) relating to women electing the wrong man. | ||
Thus the seven visions of 1933 are more accurately described as the TEN vision of 1933.

In the Laodicean Church Age sermon, William Branham says, “Now let me say this. Can anyone prove any of those visions wrong?

The first time that William Branham mentioned his series of visions was on March 26, 1953 but he does not mention the year he received them. In May 1955, he states that they are written down on a piece of paper. He does not provide a full recitation of the list of visions until November 13, 1960 when he actually states he is reading them from his list. William Branham stated that a copy of the list of prophecies had been placed in the cornerstone of The Branham Tabernacle. However, when [[The Mystery of the Empty Cornerstone|the cornerstone was opened in the late 1970's, nothing was found inside]]. | The first time that William Branham mentioned his series of visions was on March 26, 1953 but he does not mention the year he received them.
