The problem with William Branham's statement is that there is no '''Hall of Religious Art''' in Washington, D.C. There is a copy of the picture that someone sent to the U.S. Library of Congress for preservation. But the photo does not hang on the wall and there is no caption underneath it. Rather, it sits in a filing cabinet. We have personally been to the Library of Congress and have seen the photo in the file folder. It was never hanging on the wall but remains in a filing cabinet.<ref>[http://catalog.loc.gov/ Library of Congress Online Catalog]</ref> | The problem with William Branham's statement is that there is no '''Hall of Religious Art''' in Washington, D.C.

It appears that at some point in time, William Branham became aware that the "Religious Hall of Religious History" (yes, it kept changing) was not in existence and the picture was not there. Rather than admit that he was wrong, William Branham made up a story that the picture had been moved to Germany: | |||
:''As you all have seen, the Light (which the United States has copyrighted in the Washington, DC, hanging in the Religious Hall of—of religious history, in Washington, DC) is the only supernatural Being that was ever photographed in all the world. Hangs in the halls of Germany where they've taken it." <ref>61-0519, Sirs, We Would See Jesus, para. 94</ref> | |||
And where are the "halls of Germany". Something else that William Branham invented? | |||
