Most individuals that leave William Branham's message are not contacted after they leave by either the church leadership or those in the congregation. If those in the message really think that those who fall away from the message are lost, one has to wonder why there is generally no attempt to go after them. '''Didn’t Jesus talk about leaving the ninety-nine sheep''' grazing on the hillside to go and look for the lost sheep? One wonders what kind of Christians those in the message are when they don’t even make a half-hearted attempt to go after those that have left.  Is that the mark of real Christianity?

What we and many others have experienced on leaving the message is a complete shunning and a total lack of love coming from those in the message.  One is forced to conclude that many in the message are simply not Christians.
