2 Peter 3:15 - Look on our Lord’s patience as the opportunity he is giving you to be saved, just as our dear brother Paul wrote to you, using the wisdom that God gave him. This is what he says in all his letters when he writes on the subject. There are some difficult things in his letters which ignorant and unstable people explain falsely, as they do with other passages of the Scriptures. So they bring on their own destruction.  
In 2 Peter 3:15, we read:
 
:''Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.  He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.<ref>The New International Version (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2011), 2 Pe 3:15–16. </ref>

The writer of Hebrews states in chapter 5 that " it is hard to explain to you, because you are so slow to understand. There has been enough time for you to be teachers—yet you still need someone to teach you the first lessons of God’s message. Instead of eating solid food, you still have to drink milk. Anyone who has to drink milk is still a child, without any experience in the matter of right and wrong. Solid food, on the other hand, is for adults, who through practice are able to distinguish between good and evil.  
The writer of Hebrews states in chapter 5 that:
 
:''We have much to say about this, but '''it is hard to make it clear to you because you no longer try to understand.'''  In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!  Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. 14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil. <ref>The New International Version (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2011), Heb 5:11–14.</ref>


We need to be adults. We need to think and consider and ponder Godès word. We need to examine what WMB taught very carefully and compare it to scripture.
We need to be adults. We need to think and consider and ponder God's word. We need to examine what William Branham taught very carefully and compare it to scripture.


We have done that which is why we no longer follow the message of WMB.
The reason that so many have left the message of William Branahm is because of that.  They have examined William Branham's message and compared it to the Bible.  It failed.
