='''Discrepancies''' between Upshaw and Branham= | ='''Discrepancies''' between Upshaw and Branham= | ||
The picture of William Upshaw that has been painted into the minds of William Branham's followers is that of a frail, old man who was destined to a crippled life in a wheelchair. William Branham often mentions how the Congressman was so bad off that he had to be wheeled around, carried on beds, and practically unable to function. | |||
But in the newspapers, we find Upshaw travelling around in convoys of automobiles, '''walking around freely using his crutches''', and speaking to multiple audiences per day -- both for policical speeches and evangelistic sermons. | |||
So it appears that Congressman Upshaw's healing may not have been quite as miraculous as it was described by William Branham. | |||
Additionaly, there is a significant concern with the huge changes in the story over time as it was told by William Branham. | |||
In Congressman Upshaw's testimony, William Branham never speaks to him or even acknowledges him. The message that he is healed is delivered by Brother Leroy Kopp. | In Congressman Upshaw's testimony, William Branham never speaks to him or even acknowledges him.
