'''William Branham prophecied''' that the Vatican City and Rome would be destroyed by Communism in a swift military campaign.  He later changed his doctrine to say that Romanism would rule the world, not Communism.

The problem with this prophecy is that the Roman Catholic Church was actually instrumental in the destruction of Communism.  The government of Russia no longer has a major problem with the Vatican as the opposition to Christianity has largely disappeared, along with Communism.

''They say communism will go take the world over. Don't you believe that. Communism ain't going to do nothing. Show me one place in the Bible where communism will ever take over. The Bible says Romanism will take over, not communism. Look at Daniel's vision. See? Not--not communism, it's a puppet in God's hands to destroy Romanism. But Romanism, you fear that, not communism. It's nothing, don't amount to a thing. Only, you hear about Russia, all communism.'' <ref> Testimony on the sea, July 26, 1962 </ref>
