An old friend of our family, William Booth-Clibborn, once told William Branham, "Brother Branham, you just don’t know your Bible.” (61-0218 - Balm In Gilead) . I personally think his statement was correct. William Branham's understanding of scripture was significantly flawed. He was a fan of proof texts and would take passages of the Bible completely out of context to support his own views. He would read his thoughts into the Bible rather allowing scripture to speak from the plain meaning of the text. | An old friend of our family, William Booth-Clibborn, once told William Branham, "Brother Branham, you just don’t know your Bible.” (61-0218 - Balm In Gilead) .
