The Sign of the Messiah: Difference between revisions

William Branham claimed that he had the gift of discernment, and that discernment was the "Sign of the Messiah".  Some claim this made him a prophet, but other logically conclude that this doctrine makes William Branham the Messiah.  In claiming that discernment was the ‘sign of the Messiah’,  William Branham taught that he alone possessed this sign for the Gentiles — the first and only person besides Jesus Christ!  He became the messiah to the Gentiles in his own mind and the mind of his followers (if he had not come, the world would be cursed, right?).  This is why people like Donny Reagan preach that leaving the Message is the unpardonable sin, even if the person that leaves the Message remains a Christian. They deny the power of salvation through Jesus Christ in exchange for salvation through William Branham.
