===Problems with the Prophecy===
=Problems with the Prophecy=


William Branham said that this was one of the prophecies that he had written down in his book of prophecies.  In other words, it was accurate because he took the time to write it down, and did not have to rely on his memory.

===William Branham retells the prophecy===
=[[Plagiarism]] again?=
 
Ellen White, the "prophet" and founder of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, stated that:
 
:''“Eggs should not be placed upon your table.”<ref>Ellen G. White, Testimonies for the Church, vol. 2, p. 400</ref>
 
This appears to be another case of William Branham plagiarizing something from another source.
 
 
 
Without giving heed to the setting of this statement it seems to be all-inclusive, and has a finality that is beyond compromise. And some of our folks say, “Therefore, eat no eggs.”

:''Do you remember years ago when I first, when we had the little bitty structure here, and I was prophesying, and said, "It shall come to pass in the last days, don't live in a valley and '''don't eat eggs'''." I've got it on my book. I thought there was something about that, and I went and looked at it. "'''Don't eat eggs.'''" That was way back in 1933. Eggs has got something in them now, and I see where science says that a man over fifty years old should never eat an egg, because it's the hardest thing on a heart that can be eaten.
