| ||[[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?

| ||[[Progressive Revelation]]. In order to explain the shift in William Branham's doctrines over time, many ministers who believe he was Elijah the Prophet teach that his sermons became more inspired as time went on. As a result, they will ignore a statement from 1961 if a quote from 1965 states the opposite.
