||[[Matthew 24:28]] "For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together."  
||[[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?

||[[The Prophet and The Eagle]]
||[[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.

||[[Michael the Archangel]]
||[[Michael the Archangel]].  To most Christians he is an angel.  To Jehovah Witnesses he is Jesus.  William Branham also taught that Michael was Jesus in the form of an Angel.  Is this Biblical?

||[[Water baptism]]  
||[[Water baptism]].  William Branham taught that every Christian should be baptized (or rebaptized) in the three-fold name of the Lord Jesus Christ. But does the Bible teach this?  Is there one instance in the Book of Acts where anyone was ever baptized in this three-fold name?

||[[Tithing]]
||[[Tithing]] is giving 10% of your income to the Church because it is a commandment of God.  Does tithing apply to the New Testament? (Hint: does circumcision apply in the New Testament?)

||[[Seven Church Ages]]
||[[Seven Church Ages]].  Read about William Branham's doctrine on the book of Revelation, all plagerized from the works of Clarence Larkin.  It is important to note that the word "Ages" is not used in the Book of Revelation with regard to the Churches.  How careful should we be if we are going to add even one word to the Book of Revelation?

||[[Seven Seals]]
||[[Seven Seals]] taught in 1963.  William Branham claimed he got the revelation to speak these message from an angel of the Lord.  However, they are surprisingly similar to the works of Clarence Larkin.

||[[An Uncertain Sound|A prophet or not a prophet?]]
||[[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?
