'''Didn’t William Branham say that he came out of the desert, and claim the Third Pull would happen in the secret chamber?

William Branham said: | |||
:''It goes right into the desert, from there on. Eternity sets in. Seven peaks, right on the Continental Divide. That’s right between right and wrong. And at the end of that, the Third Pull was the last Pull of the range. Is that right?<ref>63-1110M - Souls That Are In Prison Now, para. 312</ref> | |||
:''And just then He picked me up. He took me up, and sit me way up high, to where a meeting was going on. Looked like a tent or a cathedral, of some sort. And I looked, and there was a little box, like, '''little place over in the side'''. And I seen that Light was talking to somebody, above me, that Light that you see there on the picture. It whirled away from me, like that, and went over that tent. And said, “I’ll meet you there.” And said, “This will be the Third Pull, and '''you won’t tell It to nobody'''.” And in Sabino Canyon, He said, “This is the Third Pull.” And there’s three great things that goes with It. And one unfolded today, or, yesterday; the other one unfolded today; and there’s one thing that I cannot interpret, because it’s in an unknown language. But I stand right there and looked right straight at It. And this is the Third Pull coming up.<ref>63-0324E - The Seventh Seal, para. 299-300</ref> | |||
But Jesus said: | |||
:''“And now, just before the coming of Christ, the Bible said there would be false christs arise and would claim to be Christ, and would say, "Lo," the people say, "He's in the desert." Don't believe it. "Lo, He's in the secret chamber." Don't believe it. "For as the sun shineth from the east unto the west, so shall the coming of the Son of man be." See? Yes, He'll--He'll--He'll appear, and it'll be a universal thing.”'' (William Branham, The Second Seal) | :''“And now, just before the coming of Christ, the Bible said there would be false christs arise and would claim to be Christ, and would say, "Lo," the people say, "He's in the desert."

In our last video we covered the source of William Branham’s revelation of the First Seal. Moving to the Second Seal, William Branham again states that he did not get his revelation from anyone else. It came straight from God: | |||
:''And I tell you, today something happened again. And, I—I, something that I…I go and get the old script that I had, that I talked on, long ago, and just set down there. And I thought, “Well, I—I did the very best I could.” And many writers and things, and I thought, “Well, I’ll read a little while, and look over and see this and that.” And the first thing you know, something just happens, and it’s altogether different. It just comes in different. Then I grab me a pencil right quick, and start writing down just as fast as I can, while He’s there. Oh, it just something happened just about one-half hour ago.<ref>63-0319 - The Second Seal, para. 11-12</ref> | |||
William Branham is clear that this is his revelation: | |||
:''Now here is my revelation of it. This is Satan, again.<Ref>63-0319 - The Second Seal, para. 261</ref> | |||
:''...the Roman Catholic church put sixty-eight million Protestants to death.” Was his sword red? Was he riding a red horse? What was it? The same power; the same rider. There is the Seal.<ref>63-0319 - The Second Seal, para. 289</ref> | |||
But if we look at the writings of Charles Taze Russel, we understand exactly how William Branham received his revelation: | |||
:''And when He had opened the second seal... The same rider, the Antichrist. ...The pope (each pope in his turn) is the head of the false church.<ref>Charles Taze Russell, ''Studies in the Scriptures, Volume VII, The Finished Mystery: The Winepress of God's Wrath and the Fall of Babylon'' (published posthumously), edited by C. J. Woodworth and George H. Fisher, copyright 1917, Peoples Pulpit Association, Brooklyn, N. Y., USA, International Bible Students Association, published 1918, p. 140</ref> | |||
William Branham appears to be teaching the doctrine of Charles Taze Russell... the Watchtower Society... the Jehovah’s Witnesses... as having come straight from God… to him. | |||
Did you know that Charles Russell is revered by his followers as the messenger to the church of Laodicea? Is this just a coincidence? | |||
