==Jesus' Warning of False Prophets==
In this sermon William Branham ties Jesus’ warning about “False Prophets” to the time after the rapture.  As such, this scripture naturally does not apply to him. 
William Branham also tells a story about Joseph giving his brothers white robes in this sermon.  It is likely from this story that some Message Believers think that Moses and Elijah will arise and translate the sermon of the Seven Seals into Hebrew after the rapture.  So, perhaps his message really is one of the false ministries to watch for. 
==Other controversial comments==
William Branham also makes some off-topic statements during this sermon that are very strange:
#He talks secretly to the [http://en.believethesign.com/index.php/Was_William_Branham_a_racist%3F#KKK Masons in the crowd] when he says, “You Masons, I’ll call your attention.  You remember the sign of the cross?  Now you – you know what I’m talking about.“
#He brings out a non-Biblical doctrine that Moses resurrected.  “Moses actually died.  But he rose, ‘ cause he was a perfect type of Christ. ”
#He denies that his vision of heaven was like the Mormon version of Soul Sleep. 
#He states that children are bundles of muscles until just before birth, at which time they are given the breath of life.  This doctrine is why many Message Believers think that still-born babies will not be in heaven, and why the anti-abortion movement isn’t worth their voice.
