Rumors began spreading in the late 1940s about a man whose ministry was so powerful he could heal cancer and even raise the dead. As independent sources confirmed each other, some basic facts began to emerge: the man's name was William Branham, he was uneducated but taught than an Angel had commissioned him to heal the sick, he preached only about Jesus Christ and faith in God's name, and people were indeed healed by his prayers. By 1950, it was confirmed that he had even raised the dead. | Rumors began spreading in the late 1940s about a man whose ministry was so powerful he could heal cancer and even raise the dead.

The purpose of this incredible ministry was simply to draw attention to Jesus Christ. Once you begin to look at Jesus Christ in the light of William Branham's ministry, you will start to understand that Jesus Christ will fulfill his promise to return, and that the the Bible is relevant today. | The purpose of this incredible ministry was simply to draw attention to Jesus Christ.
