In November 1960, he states for the first time that he is reading them and that they were from 1932 (emphasis and numbers added):


32 I’d like to read you a prophecy that was given. I got on… And may…By the way, Mr. Mercier and many of them are going to take some of these old prophecies, and dig them out, and revise them a little, or bring them up to date, and put them in papers. I’d like to read some things that I’d like for you to—to…This one, first. I’d like to read something to you. 33 “1932.” Listen to this. “As I was on my way, or as I was getting ready to go on my way to church this morning, it came to pass that I fell into a vision. Our services is being held on Meigs Avenue, at the old orphan’s home where Charlie Kern lives in part of the building.” He lives just across the street now, you know. “And it came to pass, that, while I was in this vision, I seen some dreadful things take place. I speak this in the Name of the Lord. 34 “The President which now is, President Franklin D. Roosevelt,” now remember, this is twenty-eight years ago, “will cause the whole world to go to war. And the new dictator of Italy, Mussolini, shall make his first invasion towards Ethiopia. And he will take Ethiopia, but that will be his last. He shall come to his end. 35 “We will be in war with Germany. Watch Russia. Now, that, see, Communism, Nazism, and Fascism. Watch Russia, but that is not the main one to watch. 36 “It shall also…has been an evil thing done in this country, they have permitted women to vote. This is a woman’s nation, and she will pollute this nation as Eve did Eden.” Now you see why I’m hammering the way I do? I got THUS SAITH THE LORD. “In her voting, she will elect the wrong person. 37 “The Americans will take a great beating at a place that Germany will build, which will be a great wall built of concrete,” the Maginot Line, eleven years before it was ever built, “but finally they will be victors. 38 “Then when these women help elect the wrong person, then I seen a great woman rise up in the United States, well-dressed and beautiful, but cruel in heart. She will either guide or lead this nation to ruination.” I got, in parenthesis, “(Perhaps, Catholic church). 39 “Also, science will progress, especially in the mechanical world. Automobiles will continue to get like egg-shape. Finally they will build one that won’t need a steering wheel.” They’ve got it now. “It will be controlled by some other power. 40 “Then I seen the United States as one smoldering, burnt-over place. It will be near the end.” Then I got, in parenthesis, “(I predict that this will take place…).” Now, remember, the Lord, that’s what the Lord showed. “(But I predict this will take place before 1977.) Upon this prediction, I base, because of the onrushing slaught that’s coming now, how fast that it was moving, how long it’ll take till this nation meets its place.” Now, look what happened now. 41 In President Franklin D. Roosevelt, took America to England’s tea party. That’s right. Germany never picked on us; we picked on them. Throwed the whole world into a war, that caused the world war. The German’s built the Maginot Line. Which, there, any veteran here knows what she took there at the Maginot Line. 42 Women, given the right to vote, elected President-elect Kennedy, was the woman’s vote, the wrong man; which will finally lead to full control, of the Catholic church, in United States. Then the bomb comes that explodes her. 43 There are seven things predicted, and five of them has already happened. So you can judge, yourself, how far away we are. We’re near the end. If them five things happened, these other two things are bound to happen. It’s just got to happen. 44 I do not think that Mr. Kennedy will have much effect now, because he’ll make a wonderful President, in order to bring in the others, to get a scene set just like they have in England, like they did in Mexico, like they did everywhere else like that. And American people, so unstabled; not spiritually. They’re smart, but too smart for their own good. Intelligence swings backward, sometime, and backfires. So they…I’m preaching on that, this morning, in a little bit. 45 So, we find out, we’re—we’re right on the verge. Reason I said this; that’s the reason I pressed that, the other day, so hard the way I did. But it was that that did it, that’s right, women’s vote. That put… 46 Did you notice the rallies on the television? Nixon to be, pretty near, all men. All of them wanted to kiss Kennedy, the women, jumping astraddle the cars, everything like that, jumping up-and-down. 47 And now let me bring something else. I haven’t got written here, but, on magnetic tape. And this is taped, too. 1956, in Chicago, Illinois, standing at the…that scho-…Lane Tech High School. They were there. I said, “This year is going to be the changing point of America.” I just come from overseas, don’t know why I come. Come back, canceled my meetings in Africa and around, come back. Billy Graham, something mysterious, he canceled his. Tommy Osborn canceled his. And we all, crossing United States, in meetings. I said, “America will either receive or reject Christ, this year.” 48 Then I said, when they elected, in Indiana, a twenty-two-year boy…-year-old boy, to be judge. The Spirit of the Lord came on me, and I said, “They’ll finally have a President that’ll be one of these crewcut, playboy, beatnik-type Presidents, a ladies’ man.” 49 Now, them is predictions, years ago. See where we’re at? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] It’s later than we think.<ref>William Branham,  57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>

5 I was on my way to Sunday school, and when I was getting my Bible, a vision came before me; and I was stopped in the floor. And here was what it said. It’s on yellow paper. Will be printed in the “Herald of Faith” right away, because most all of it is fulfilled. 1933—think of this now. Many, many years ago, about twenty-eight years ago it—it taken place. Watch how accurate His Word is. Said, “We now have a president (Dwi… Mr. Roosevelt), and this Mr. Roosevelt will cause the world to go into a world war through his—in his time of his administration, his—his—as president,and then said, “And during this time they have permitted women to vote, which will be a curse to the nation. They’ll elect the wrong man sometime.” And they did the other day. Now, think of that. Said, “We will go to war with Germany, and Germany will be fortified behind concrete. And we will take an awful beating at this place,” the Maginot Line eleven years before it was built. See? Exactly. 6 Said, “This new dictator, Mussolini, will take his first step toward Ethiopia, and Ethiopia will fall at his feet.” It did. It said, “That’ll be his last. He will end in disgrace.” And I said, “It will come to pass before the end time comes that there will be a great woman stand up in the United States, because the United States is marked woman. Her number is thirteen, and she’ll rise up, either be president, or (I put it in parentheses) perhaps the woman being beautiful and attractive will be the Catholic church but cruel at heart, and she’ll lead the nation to pollution. And then it will come to pass that they’ll have an automobile perfected into a place, that I seen a family driving in an automobile that was glass topped and didn’t have any steering wheel in it.” It was… And I seen the other day that it in the “Popular Mechanics” that the machine is already invented. They can take it anywhere you want to by some sort of a—this radar control. Just set your post to it and it goes right on. You don’t even need it, and it’s glass topped. 7 Then I turned to look and I seen the United States was a smoldering something had burned it up. And down beneath there I said, not in the trance, but, “I predict…” (remember this, I guess this is taped too), “I predict that these things will take place between now, 1933 and 1977.” Which will give us sixteen more years if my prediction strikes right. Now, there was seven things spoke of that would happen. Five of them has already happened. There’s two left to take place. It’ll be that way. That’s in the Name of the Lord it shall be that way. See?<ref>William Branham, 57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>
:'''''“1932.”''' Listen to this. “As I was on my way, or as I was getting ready to go on my way to church this morning, it came to pass that I fell into a vision. Our services is being held on Meigs Avenue, at the old orphan’s home where Charlie Kern lives in part of the building.” He lives just across the street now, you know. “And it came to pass, that, while I was in this vision, I seen some dreadful things take place.

192 You remember the vision that was read here, 1933? I was going…The church wasn’t even built. Didn’t know what a vision was, called it a “trance.” I was just a young Baptist preacher, and we were… 193 All my life I saw those visions, and I’ll ask anybody to rise and say if ever one of them ever failed. No, never did! It can’t! See? It won’t! 194 And now, and as I started the Sunday school I fell into a trance. We was having it over here at the old Masonic home, Charlie Kern’s place, little group of us. And I seen this President Roosevelt leading the world to a world war. Predicted! I said, “And there’s three isms: the Nazi, and the Fascism, and Communism.” I said…(How many in here remembers?) I said, “Keep your eyes on Communism, it’ll all head up in there.” I said, “Ethiopia, Mussolini will go to Ethiopia, but he’ll fail.” And I said, “We’ll finally go to war with Germany, but” I said “Germany will be fortified in, in a great big bunch of concrete.” Eleven years before the Maginot Line was built, eleven years. 195 I said, “Then after the war…We’ll finally win it. And after the war is over, it’ll come to pass that science will be inventing great things.” And I said, “When they do, they’ll make an automobile, and automobiles will continually shape down.” (You know what they looked like in ’33.) Now then, said, “They’ll become like eggs, look like eggs. For I seen on a highway, a great master highway, a car going down the road that didn’t have any steering wheel in it. It was controlled by a power.” They got it right now. 196 I said, “During that time…Now they’re permitting women to vote; and women, in voting, will finally…” I said, “This nation is a woman’s nation, it’s marked by a woman. It’s a woman right down through prophecy, everywhere; and number thirteen everywhere in prophecy.” And I said, “It’s a woman’s country, she has her liberties here. And she’ll ruin it, she’s the ruination of the world.” 197 (And, Roy, I got your letters on that, that great woman that… “Every criminal case…We’ve…I’d X-rayed it down now to: every criminal case was ever done in this United States, a woman was behind it.” That’s exactly right. That’s immoral women, you see, and things.) 198 Now, so then I said, “There will be in that time, during that time the women will be permitted to vote, and they’ll elect the wrong person.” They did it on this last election. That’s right. “Which will start the stronghold. During that time it’ll come to pass that—that there’ll be a great woman rise up in the United States, she’ll be beautifully dressed,” and I got in parenthesis: “(perhaps the Catholic church).” See? “That’ll take rulership over the power, overpower the others in the United States. She’ll be beautiful to look at, but she’ll be cruel-hearted as she can be.” 199 I said, “Then I looked again, and I saw the United States just blowed to pieces. There wasn’t nothing left on it.” 200 And I predicted then. “Now this, that was THUS SAITH THE LORD.” 201 And think! Of five of those seven predictions, has already happened. 202 The church to take a hold, the Catholic church. And the coming of the end time. 203 And I said, “I seen, looked like there was stumps burning; rocks, blowed out; and the whole United States just looked bare, laying like that, as far as I could see where I was standing.” 204 And I said, “I predict, according to the way time is moving, it’ll be sometime between this year ’33 and ’77.” And it’ll have to squeeze awful hard to get through there. 205 And we’re setting on a powder keg, friends. Everything’s ready.<ref>William Branham,  57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>
:''There are seven things predicted, and '''five of them has already happened'''. So you can judge, yourself, how far away we are. We’re near the end. If them five things happened, these other two things are bound to happen. It’s just got to happen.

44 But the Lord showed me a vision of the great powerful woman, in ’33, 1933, it’s on paper. Of how that “Roosevelt would cause…he helped cause the world to go to war.” How that “Mussolini would make his first invasion to Ethiopia and he would take it, but he would come to a disgraceful end.” And how that “Then the three ism: Nazism, Fascism, and Communism, would all wind up in Communism.” And how many in here remembers me just keep…have you stand, and say it over, I’d tell you, “Watch Russia! Watch Russia, the king of the North! Watch Russia, king of the North! Watch Russia, king of the North!”? How many has heard me just say, just wave that over, over? The old-timers, you see, back in the early part of the church. Just stand there and wave it over and over, “Watch Russia, the king of the North! See, what he would do, for all those isms will heap up into Russia.” 45 Then I said, that “This nation would finally go to war with Germany. And Germany would be built in a concrete wall.” And that was the Maginot Line, eleven years before it was ever started to build it, eleven years before. And I said, “The Americans will take an awful beating at that line.” Some of these brethren here was at that line, Brother Roy Roberson and them; ask them what happened. They sure did. All right. “But finally,” I said, “we will overcome and will be one of the winner in the war between us and Germany.” 46 Now, I said, “Then after that time, that science would really progress.” They did, they made the atomic bomb and everything. I said, “During their progression, they would make a…cars would constantly begin to shape like an egg.” And you remember the big old hood on the 1933, the big back come down like this, the spare tire on the back of it? Look how it is now, see: streamlined, see, like an egg. And I said, “Finally they will invent a car that they won’t have to have a steering wheel in it. I seen a family going down the…Call it, ‘road,’ in a glass-top car, great big fine-looking roads and fine car. And they were sitting, looking at one another, and the car was running by itself, going right on around the curves and everything.” And they’ve got the car right now, it’s already invented. They’ve got the car. And I said then, “Oh, how science will progress in that day!” 47 I said, “Then I seen a…They’re going to permit women and are permitting women to vote. And by voting, they’ll elect the wrong man some of these days.” And you did at the last election. It was the woman’s votes that elected Kennedy. We know that, see, between the crooked machines and things fixed up, that FBI exposed. And how could anybody…Why don’t they do something about it? Why ain’t something said? Hah! Afraid somebody’d lose their job. You see, it’s just a bunch of politics, rotten to the core. That’s all. Sure! 48 There ain’t no—ain’t no…isn’t no, excuse me. There is no salvation in this nation, there is no salvation in any nation. Salvation’s in Jesus Christ and Him alone! Uh-huh! That’s right. Now, I’m thankful for America. I’d rather live here than any place in the world, because…outside of Canada. Canada and the United States is twins, we know that, neighboring nations, wonderful place, but I—I believe I’d rather live here than anywhere I know of, because it’s my home. I’m glad that I am an American, and thankful for it. But I tell you, it certainly needs a counter revival, it sure does. And it will not get it! No, sir. She’ll never rise again! No, sir. She’s gone! You remember, about five years ago in Chicago, that’s on tape. You got it, Gene. I said, “They’ll either accept It this year, or they’ll constantly drop down.” And they’ve done it, see, and they will do it till she’ll finally meet her end. 49 But there’ll be a powerful woman! Now, remember! This is on tape, too. A powerful woman, great woman, she’ll either be President, or it’ll be a woman representing the Catholic church (which I think it is) will take over here someday and she’ll rule this country. This nation is a woman’s nation. Flag was made by a woman, it’s number thirteen. She started out, thirteen stars, thirteen stripes, thirteen colonies. Everything’s thirteen, thirteen, thirteen, right on down. Thirteen stars on her silver dollar now. Everything’s a thirteen. It’s number thirteen, and appears in the 13th chapter of Revelation. Completely thirteen! Everything is “woman, woman, woman, woman, woman,” right on down. And she took over all the offices. She’s took over Hollywood. She’s took over the nations. She’s took over the offices. She’s took over everything there is; equal rights with the man, votes with the man, cusses like a man, drinks like a man, anything else. And just bait for the Catholic church, for the worship of a woman! They’re already worshipping a woman, anyhow.<ref>William Branham,  57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>

93 A few days ago we… Now, I’m not Democrat nor Republican; I’m a Christian; so I don’t mention these things. But I picked up an old book there that the—the Lord had gave me a vision in 1933 when I just first become a minister, going down to the Baptist Tabernacle. And He gave me a vision that morning, and I seen the first one I remember of an international affair. And I seen that President Roosevelt that was in then, and seen that we’d go to a world war. Then I seen also that—that was eleven years before the Maginot line was built, I seen Germany fortify themselves in this big concrete place. I also seen they permitted women to vote, which was wrong. And said they would—they would someday elect the wrong man; they just did it. And then… So then I seen the time of—of the end coming, and five things that the Lord let… Seven things I saw, five of them has already come to pass. I seen a powerful woman stand up to the United States. You can write this down if you do so—it’s going to happen. I don’t know… She’s on her road now. Exactly. And she took over. And then I seen the United States just like something had burnt it over hit it, and just something, blowed up rocks and things. 94 And then I seen the time there’d be an increase in science. I noticed there’d be an automobile… I had it wrote down there. I got it right with me now, old yellow paper, that there’d be a machine, automobile perfected, looked like an egg, would be glass over it. And there was a man and woman, the family, setting there with their backs turned to one another, playing cards, and the machine traveling itself. Something on the bumpers that would—it couldn’t hit the others, going down. And I seen that on television a few nights ago. They got that thing perfected right now. See, all those things that the Lord spoke is true. And we just got two more things left of that to be fulfilled, and that’s the end time. And if there ever was a time that we ought to be trying to get people to God, it’s now.<ref>William Branham,  57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>
:''So, we find out, we’re—we’re right on the verge. Reason I said this; that’s the reason I pressed that, the other day, so hard the way I did.

  61-0128 - Why?


:''And now let me bring something else. I haven’t got written here, but, on magnetic tape. And this is taped, too. 1956, in Chicago, Illinois, standing at the…that scho-…Lane Tech High School. They were there. I said, “This year is going to be the changing point of America.” I just come from overseas, don’t know why I come. Come back, canceled my meetings in Africa and around, come back. Billy Graham, something mysterious, he canceled his. Tommy Osborn canceled his. And we all, crossing United States, in meetings. I said, “America will either receive or reject Christ, this year.” 48 Then I said, when they elected, in Indiana, a twenty-two-year boy…-year-old boy, to be judge. The Spirit of the Lord came on me, and I said, “They’ll finally have a President that’ll be one of these crewcut, playboy, beatnik-type Presidents, a ladies’ man.”  Now, them is predictions, years ago. See where we’re at? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] It’s later than we think.<ref>William Branham,  60-1113 - Condemnation By Representation, para. 32-48</ref>
 
A few days later, he refers to the visions again.  This is the first time that he provides seven specific prophecies (emphasis and numbers added):


And as I said, “We’re just being honeycombed with communism and everything.” Every ism, it’s… Many of you, if you’d put a righteous President in every county in the whole United States, it’s still gone. She’ll never rise again, THUS SAITH THE LORD. 1956 she made her fatal move. Now, and she took well on her way about three months ago. Now, she’s gone. Write it in your Bible; see if it’s right. 1933, one morning going to the Baptist tabernacle, I went into a trance, saw a vision. I saw President Roosevelt was going to help lead the world to a world war, told it that morning. They was going to lock me up for it. And I said, “They’ll go to war with Germany.” Eleven years before the Maginot Line was built, I said, “There…” in that same vision I saw Germany fortified in concrete. And America took a terrible beating there, and many of you boys know what happened, was there. 75 Notice. I said, “Mussolini is standing up as a dictator; he will make his first invasion to Ethiopia. But he will take Ethiopia, but he will come to a disgraceful end, him and that woman both.” And they hung them with their feet up, and her clothes hanging over her head in the street, and spit on them. I said, “Science will improve.” I said, “Another thing, the nation has permitted women to vote, one of the most horrible disgraces they’ve done.” And I said, “In voting they’ll elect the wrong man.” I’m neither Democrat nor Republican. I’m a Christian. Both sides is rotten. But they made their fatal mistake the other day. Women done the works. And how you colored people, sell your birthright to such a thing as that, when the blood of Abraham Lincoln’s stains, up yonder on that dress. God have mercy. Help me, Lord. Oh, my. Maybe I shouldn’t have said it. But I’ve done said it. 76 Remember. Oh, how can it be? My days as evangelist is soon done. I can’t prophetic and evangelist too. I’ll leave the field. That’s in the spirit now. Soon He will be calling me; I’ll leave the field of evangelism. Then He will use me as His seer. What’s the matter with me anyhow? Where was I at? Yes. Genesis 18. Did you get that Gene? Genesis 18, I believe I was speaking on. Then, no, I was on what He told me, would happen. Then He said, “Science will be increased, until it comes to a place until they’ll perfect an automobile, that looks like an egg, before the end time.” There I seen it. And I said, “They’ll control it with some kind of a steering outfit that they don’t have to touch it theirself.” I seen an American family, going down a great big broad way playing cards with a glass-top car, looked like an egg. They’ve got it right now. You seen it on television here not long ago. They’ve got it. 77 And I said, “Then I seen some great powerful woman rise in the United States.” ’Cause this is a woman’s nation: woman’s picture on the money; everything is woman here. That’s right. She’s a goddess. Not you Christian women. I’m talking about… Let a little flapper come down the street here with all these shorts, and things. She can do more harm to the church of the living God, among men, than all the bootleg joints there is through the nation. That’s right. This is a… America is a woman’s nation. Got her pictures, Her number’s thirteen, thirteen colonies, thirteen stripes, thirteen stars, thirteen so… Everything is thirteen, thirteen, thirteen and a woman. See? And I seen a great woman rise up, beautiful to look at, but a cruel wicked heart. And that will be a church. And she’s on her road now. 78 Then I seen the end time when the United States looked like a big bunch of bursted up stones and things like that, just blowed out, smoldering everywhere. Five of them has happened, two of them’s on their road. That has been twenty-one years ago (See?), when it was predicted. If five of them is perfectly hit, the other two’s got to. I see them coming on the road now.<ref>William Branham,  57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>
:''I was on my way to Sunday school, and when I was getting my Bible, a vision came before me; and I was stopped in the floor. '''And here was what it said. It’s on yellow paper. Will be printed in the “Herald of Faith” right away, because most all of it is fulfilled.''' 1933—think of this now. Many, many years ago, about twenty-eight years ago it—it taken place. Watch how accurate His Word is.

::(1) ''Said, “We now have a president (Dwi… Mr. Roosevelt), and this '''Mr. Roosevelt will cause the world to go into a world war''' through his—in his time of his administration, his—his—as president,” and then said,  
::(2) ''“And during this time they have permitted women to vote, which will be a curse to the nation. '''They’ll elect the wrong man sometime'''.And they did the other day. Now, think of that. Said,  
::(3) ''“'''We will go to war with Germany, and Germany will be fortified behind concrete.''' And we will take an awful beating at this place,” the Maginot Line eleven years before it was built. See? Exactly. Said,  
::(4) ''“This new dictator, '''Mussolini, will take his first step toward Ethiopia, and Ethiopia will fall at his feet.” It did. It said, “That’ll be his last. He will end in disgrace.”''' And I said,  
::(5) ''“It will come to pass before the end time comes that '''there will be a great woman stand up in the United States''', because the United States is marked woman. Her number is thirteen, and '''she’ll rise up, either be president, or (I put it in parentheses) perhaps the woman being beautiful and attractive will be the Catholic church but cruel at heart, and she’ll lead the nation to pollution.''' ''
::(6) ''And then it will come to pass that they’ll have an automobile perfected into a place, that '''I seen a family driving in an automobile that was glass topped and didn’t have any steering wheel in it.'''It was… And I seen the other day that it in the “Popular Mechanics” that the machine is already invented. They can take it anywhere you want to by some sort of a—this radar control. Just set your post to it and it goes right on. You don’t even need it, and it’s glass topped.  
::(7)Then I turned to look and '''I seen the United States was a smoldering something had burned it up.''' And down beneath there I said, not in the trance, but, “I predict…” (remember this, I guess this is taped too), “'''I predict that these things will take place between now, 1933 and 1977.'''” Which will give us sixteen more years if my prediction strikes right.  


:Now, there was seven things spoke of that would happen. Five of them has already happened. There’s two left to take place. It’ll be that way. '''That’s in the Name of the Lord it shall be that way'''. See?<ref>William Branham,  60-1125 - Conference, para. 5-7</ref>
 
On December 8, 1960, he mentions the visions again (emphasis and numbers added):
:''You remember the vision that was read here, 1933? I was going…The church wasn’t even built. Didn’t know what a vision was, called it a “trance.” I was just a young Baptist preacher, and we were…  All my life I saw those visions, and I’ll ask anybody to rise and say if ever one of them ever failed. No, never did! It can’t! See? It won’t!  And now, and as I started the Sunday school I fell into a trance. We was having it over here at the old Masonic home, Charlie Kern’s place, little group of us.
::(1) ''And I seen this President Roosevelt leading the world to a world war. Predicted! I said,
::(2) ''“And there’s three isms: the Nazi, and the Fascism, and Communism.” I said…(How many in here remembers?) I said, “Keep your eyes on Communism, it’ll all head up in there.” I said,
::(3) ''“Ethiopia, Mussolini will go to Ethiopia, but he’ll fail.”
::(4) ''And I said, “We’ll finally go to war with Germany, but” I said “Germany will be fortified in, in a great big bunch of concrete.” Eleven years before the Maginot Line was built, eleven years.  I said,
::(5) “Then after the war…We’ll finally win it. And after the war is over, it’ll come to pass that science will be inventing great things.” And I said, “When they do, they’ll make an automobile, and '''automobiles will continually shape down'''.” (You know what they looked like in ’33.) Now then, said, “'''They’ll become like eggs, look like eggs'''.
::(6) ''For I seen on a highway, a great master highway, a car going down the road that didn’t have any steering wheel in it. It was controlled by a power.” They got it right now.  I said,
::(7) ''“During that time…Now they’re permitting women to vote; and women, in voting, will finally…” I said, “This nation is a woman’s nation, it’s marked by a woman. It’s a woman right down through prophecy, everywhere; and number thirteen everywhere in prophecy.” And I said, “It’s a woman’s country, she has her liberties here. And she’ll ruin it, she’s the ruination of the world.”  (And, Roy, I got your letters on that, that great woman that… “Every criminal case…We’ve…I’d X-rayed it down now to: every criminal case was ever done in this United States, a woman was behind it.” That’s exactly right. That’s immoral women, you see, and things.)  Now, so then I said, “There will be in that time, during that time the women will be permitted to vote, and they’ll elect the wrong person.” They did it on this last election. That’s right.
::(8) ''“Which will start the stronghold. During that time it’ll come to pass that—that there’ll be a great woman rise up in the United States, she’ll be beautifully dressed,” and I got in parenthesis: “(perhaps the Catholic church).” See? “That’ll take rulership over the power, overpower the others in the United States. She’ll be beautiful to look at, but she’ll be cruel-hearted as she can be.”  I said,
::(9) ''“Then I looked again, and I saw the United States just blowed to pieces. There wasn’t nothing left on it.”
:''And I predicted then. “Now this, that was '''THUS SAITH THE LORD'''.”  And think! Of '''five of those seven predictions, has already happened.'''  The church to take a hold, the Catholic church. And the coming of the end time.  And I said, “I seen, looked like there was stumps burning; rocks, blowed out; and the whole United States just looked bare, laying like that, as far as I could see where I was standing.”
:''And I said, “I predict, according to the way time is moving, '''it’ll be sometime between this year ’33 and ’77.'''” And it’ll have to squeeze awful hard to get through there.  And we’re setting on a powder keg, friends. Everything’s ready.<ref>William Branham,  60-1208 - The Thyatirean Church Age, para. 192-204</ref>
 
And on December 11, 1960
:But the Lord showed me a vision of the great powerful woman, in ’33, 1933, it’s on paper. Of how that
::(1) ''“Roosevelt would cause…he helped cause the world to go to war.”
::(2) ''How that “Mussolini would make his first invasion to Ethiopia and he would take it, but he would come to a disgraceful end.” And how that
::(3) ''“Then the three ism: Nazism, Fascism, and Communism, would all wind up in Communism.” And how many in here remembers me just keep…have you stand, and say it over, I’d tell you, “Watch Russia! Watch Russia, the king of the North! Watch Russia, king of the North! Watch Russia, king of the North!”? How many has heard me just say, just wave that over, over? The old-timers, you see, back in the early part of the church. Just stand there and wave it over and over, “Watch Russia, the king of the North! See, what he would do, for all those isms will heap up into Russia.”  Then I said, that
::(4) ''“This nation would finally go to war with Germany. And Germany would be built in a concrete wall.” And that was the Maginot Line, eleven years before it was ever started to build it, eleven years before. And I said, “The Americans will take an awful beating at that line.” Some of these brethren here was at that line, Brother Roy Roberson and them; ask them what happened. They sure did. All right. “But finally,” I said, “we will overcome and will be one of the winner in the war between us and Germany.” 46 Now, I said, “Then after that time, that science would really progress.” They did, they made the atomic bomb and everything. I said,
::(5) ''“During their progression, they would make a…cars would constantly begin to shape like an egg.” And you remember the big old hood on the 1933, the big back come down like this, the spare tire on the back of it? Look how it is now, see: streamlined, see, like an egg. And I said,
::(6) ''“Finally they will invent a car that they won’t have to have a steering wheel in it. I seen a family going down the…Call it, ‘road,’ in a glass-top car, great big fine-looking roads and fine car. And they were sitting, looking at one another, and the car was running by itself, going right on around the curves and everything.” And they’ve got the car right now, it’s already invented. They’ve got the car. And I said then, “Oh, how science will progress in that day!”  I said,
::(7) ''“Then I seen a…They’re going to permit women and are permitting women to vote. And by voting, they’ll elect the wrong man some of these days.” And you did at the last election. It was the woman’s votes that elected Kennedy. We know that, see, between the crooked machines and things fixed up, that FBI exposed. And how could anybody…Why don’t they do something about it? Why ain’t something said? Hah! Afraid somebody’d lose their job. You see, it’s just a bunch of politics, rotten to the core. That’s all. Sure! 48 There ain’t no—ain’t no…isn’t no, excuse me. There is no salvation in this nation, there is no salvation in any nation. Salvation’s in Jesus Christ and Him alone! Uh-huh! That’s right. Now, I’m thankful for America. I’d rather live here than any place in the world, because…outside of Canada. Canada and the United States is twins, we know that, neighboring nations, wonderful place, but I—I believe I’d rather live here than anywhere I know of, because it’s my home. I’m glad that I am an American, and thankful for it. But I tell you, it certainly needs a counter revival, it sure does. And it will not get it! No, sir. She’ll never rise again! No, sir. She’s gone! You remember, about five years ago in Chicago, that’s on tape. You got it, Gene. I said, “They’ll either accept It this year, or they’ll constantly drop down.” And they’ve done it, see, and they will do it till she’ll finally meet her end.
::(8) ''But there’ll be a powerful woman! Now, remember! This is on tape, too. A powerful woman, great woman, she’ll either be President, or it’ll be a woman representing the Catholic church (which I think it is) will take over here someday and she’ll rule this country. This nation is a woman’s nation. Flag was made by a woman, it’s number thirteen. She started out, thirteen stars, thirteen stripes, thirteen colonies. Everything’s thirteen, thirteen, thirteen, right on down. Thirteen stars on her silver dollar now. Everything’s a thirteen. It’s number thirteen, and appears in the 13th chapter of Revelation. Completely thirteen! Everything is “woman, woman, woman, woman, woman,” right on down. And she took over all the offices. She’s took over Hollywood. She’s took over the nations. She’s took over the offices. She’s took over everything there is; equal rights with the man, votes with the man, cusses like a man, drinks like a man, anything else. And just bait for the Catholic church, for the worship of a woman! They’re already worshipping a woman, anyhow.<ref>William Branham, 60-1211E - The Laodicean Church Age, para. 44-49</ref>
 
A month later in January 1961 he states
:''A few days ago we… Now, I’m not Democrat nor Republican; I’m a Christian; so I don’t mention these things. But I picked up an old book there that the—the Lord had gave me a vision in 1933 when I just first become a minister, going down to the Baptist Tabernacle. And He gave me a vision that morning, and I seen the first one I remember of an international affair.
::(1) ''And I seen that President Roosevelt that was in then, and seen that we’d go to a world war.
::(2) ''Then I seen also that—that was eleven years before the Maginot line was built, I seen Germany fortify themselves in this big concrete place.
::(3) '' I also seen they permitted women to vote, which was wrong. And said they would—they would someday elect the wrong man; they just did it. And then… So then I seen the time of—of the end coming, and five things that the Lord let… Seven things I saw, five of them has already come to pass.
::(4) ''I seen a powerful woman stand up to the United States. You can write this down if you do so—it’s going to happen. I don’t know… She’s on her road now. Exactly. And she took over.
::(5) ''And then I seen the United States just like something had burnt it over hit it, and just something, blowed up rocks and things.
::(6) ''And then I seen the time there’d be an increase in science. I noticed there’d be an automobile… I had it wrote down there. I got it right with me now, old yellow paper, that there’d be a machine, automobile perfected, looked like an egg, would be glass over it. And there was a man and woman, the family, setting there with their backs turned to one another, playing cards, and the machine traveling itself. Something on the bumpers that would—it couldn’t hit the others, going down. And I seen that on television a few nights ago. They got that thing perfected right now.
:See, all those things that the Lord spoke is true. And we just got two more things left of that to be fulfilled, and that’s the end time. And if there ever was a time that we ought to be trying to get people to God, it’s now.<ref>William Branham,  61-0128 - Why?, para. 93</ref>
 
In March 1961, he states
:''And as I said, “We’re just being honeycombed with communism and everything.” Every ism, it’s… Many of you, if you’d put a righteous President in every county in the whole United States, it’s still gone. She’ll never rise again, '''THUS SAITH THE LORD.''' 1956 she made her fatal move. Now, and she took well on her way about three months ago. Now, she’s gone. Write it in your Bible; see if it’s right. 1933, one morning going to the Baptist tabernacle, I went into a trance, saw a vision.
çI saw President Roosevelt was going to help lead the world to a world war, told it that morning. They was going to lock me up for it. And I said,
::(2) ''“They’ll go to war with Germany.” Eleven years before the Maginot Line was built, I said, “There…” in that same vision I saw Germany fortified in concrete. And America took a terrible beating there, and many of you boys know what happened, was there.  Notice. I said,
::(3) ''“Mussolini is standing up as a dictator; he will make his first invasion to Ethiopia. But he will take Ethiopia, but he will come to a disgraceful end, him and that woman both.” And they hung them with their feet up, and her clothes hanging over her head in the street, and spit on them. I said,
::(4) ''“Science will improve.” I said,
::(5) ''“Another thing, the nation has permitted women to vote, one of the most horrible disgraces they’ve done.” And I said, “In voting they’ll elect the wrong man.” I’m neither Democrat nor Republican. I’m a Christian. Both sides is rotten. But they made their fatal mistake the other day. Women done the works. And how you colored people, sell your birthright to such a thing as that, when the blood of Abraham Lincoln’s stains, up yonder on that dress. God have mercy. Help me, Lord. Oh, my. Maybe I shouldn’t have said it. But I’ve done said it. 76 Remember. Oh, how can it be? My days as evangelist is soon done. I can’t prophetic and evangelist too. I’ll leave the field. That’s in the spirit now. Soon He will be calling me; I’ll leave the field of evangelism. Then He will use me as His seer. What’s the matter with me anyhow? Where was I at? Yes. Genesis 18. Did you get that Gene? Genesis 18, I believe I was speaking on. Then, no, I was on what He told me, would happen. Then He said,
::(6) ''“Science will be increased, until it comes to a place until they’ll perfect an automobile, that looks like an egg, before the end time.” There I seen it. And I said,
::(7) ''“They’ll control it with some kind of a steering outfit that they don’t have to touch it theirself.” I seen an American family, going down a great big broad way playing cards with a glass-top car, looked like an egg. They’ve got it right now. You seen it on television here not long ago. They’ve got it. And I said,
::(8) ''“Then I seen some great powerful woman rise in the United States.” ’Cause this is a woman’s nation: woman’s picture on the money; everything is woman here. That’s right. She’s a goddess. Not you Christian women. I’m talking about… Let a little flapper come down the street here with all these shorts, and things. She can do more harm to the church of the living God, among men, than all the bootleg joints there is through the nation. That’s right. This is a… America is a woman’s nation. Got her pictures, Her number’s thirteen, thirteen colonies, thirteen stripes, thirteen stars, thirteen so… Everything is thirteen, thirteen, thirteen and a woman. See? And I seen a great woman rise up, beautiful to look at, but a cruel wicked heart. And that will be a church. And she’s on her road now.
::(9) ''Then I seen the end time when the United States looked like a big bunch of bursted up stones and things like that, just blowed out, smoldering everywhere. Five of them has happened, two of them’s on their road.
:''That has been twenty-one years ago (See?), when it was predicted. If '''five of them is perfectly hit''', the other two’s got to. I see them coming on the road now.<ref>William Branham,  61-0312 - Jehovah-Jireh, para. 74-78</ref>
 
William Branham reiterates the visions again on August 6, 1961:
:Now, in 1933, when we were worshipping over here in the Masonic temple, where the church of Christ stands today. On one April morning, before leaving home… I was dedicating my car. I got a ’33 model car, and I was dedicating it to the Lord’s service. And in a vision, I saw the end time. Now notice how striking this is, back yonder when I was just a boy. And you can imagine what a 1933 model car looked like, now, what it looked like. And I went over there to the Masonic temple, where…Some of you old-timers in here remembers. It’s wrote down on old paper, at home. It’s already in print and went out around the world. See? That was in 1933. And I predicted that there would be some great tragedy happen to this United States before or by the year of 1977. How many remembers me saying that? [The old-timers say, “Amen.”—Ed.] Look at the hand. Sure.
:Now watch. I predicted seven things was yet in the making of the…before this great consummation or great thing would take place here in the United States, some great horrible thing. I said… Now remember, this is before it started. I said we would go into a Second World War. How many remember hearing me say it? Say, “Amen.” [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] All right. A Second World War! I said,
::(1) ''“The President that now is…” I copied this off the old scripture, yet, the old thing yesterday, that, “The President that we now have,” which was…How many remembers whose it was? [A brother says, “Franklin Roosevelt.”] Franklin D. Roosevelt. I said, “The President we have in now will run even in the fourth term,” he was on his first then, “will run into the fourth term, and we will be taken to a Second World War.”  I said,
::(1) ''“The dictator that’s now arising in Italy, which is Mussolini, he will come into power. And he will go to Ethiopia, and Ethiopia will fall at his steps.” There is people setting here now that knows, that there’s a group of people come and stood, when I was having my meeting in the Redman’s Hall down there that night, when I had to go down there to preach that, Redman’s Hall, and was going to throw me out of the hall for saying such a thing. [Sister Wilson says, “Amen. That’s right.”—Ed.] Yeah. Yeah. Mrs. Wilson, I know you’re…[“That’s right.”] That’s right. When I said that…But did he do it? “But,” I said, “he’ll come to a shameful end,” and he did. Him and the woman he run with, was turned up-side-down and hung on a rope in the street, with their feet up, their clothes hanging down. All right, that come to pass. 203 And then I said,
::(1) ''“The women has been permitted to vote. Which is absolutely a disgrace upon the nation. And, in voting, some day they’ll elect the wrong man.” And they did that in this last election. My, my! Four…(I said, “Science will progress in such a way…”) No, here, that’s third. Pardon me. Here is the next one, there, the fourth. I said,
::(1) ''“Our war will be with Germany, and they will build a great big concrete place and fortify themselves in there, and the Americans will take a horrible beating.” Almighty God knows, that Who I stand before now, I seen those independent Nazis kick at the Americans like that, and things, at that wall. [A man in the congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] And there is many boys standing here now that was at that Siegfried Line, that knows what it was. [“Amen. Yes, sir. Amen.”] And remember, that was eleven years before the Siegfried Line was built. Is God true? [Congregation says, “Amen.”] Does He still foretell things to happen? [“Amen.”] Watch. That’s, that was the fourth.
::(1) ''Now the fifth thing. “Science will progress in such a way until they will make a car that will not have to be guided by a steering wheel.
::(1) ''And the cars will continue to be shaped like an egg, until the consummation, the end time. I seen American family going down the road, in a broad way, riding in a car with their backs turned towards where the wheel should be, looked like they were playing checkers or cards.” And we got it. It’s on television. Popular Science, Mechanics, rather, all have it. We got the car. It’s controlled by a remote control, by—by radar. They won’t even have to have any steering wheel in it. Just set your dial like this, like you dial your phone, and your car takes you right on to it; can’t wreck, nor nothing, no other cars. The magnet keeps the rest of them away from you. See? They got it. Oh, my! Think of it. Predicted thirty years before it happened! Now, that brings us then to the election of President Kennedy. And this car coming on the—on the scene, bringing five things (out of the seven) that has happened exactly.
::(1) ''Now, I predicted, and have said, “I saw a great woman stand up, beautiful-looking, dressed in real highly royal-like purple.” And I got little parenthesis down here, “(She was a great ruler in the United States; perhaps the Catholic church.)” A woman, some woman; I don’t know it’ll be the Catholic church. I don’t know. I can’t say. Only thing I seen, I seen the woman, that was all.
:::But this is a woman’s nation. This nation is number thirteen, in prophecy. She’s got thirteen stripes, thirteen stars. She started thirteen colonies. Thirteen, thirteen, everything is thirteen. Appears in the 13th chapter of Revelations, even. She is thirteen. And she is a woman nation.  The divorce courts in America produce more divorces, by our women, than all the rest of the nations. The morals in our country is lower, and divorces, than it is in France or Italy, where prostitution is on the street. So, but they are prostitutes; ours is married women trying to live with several men, and several married men trying to live with other women.  In the nations where they have polygamy, it’s a thousand times better. And, yet, polygamy is wrong, we know. But, just show how degraded we are.
:::I got a piece up there out of the paper, where it showed that when our American boys went overseas, in this last war, that over, I believe, it was around seventy percent…Why, now, wait a minute, I believe it was three out of four that went overseas, was divorced by their wife before they got back. And its great big headline says, “What’s happened to the morals of our American people?” You remember seeing it? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] All of you did, I guess. “What’s happened to the morals of our American women?” Plants, working out yonder with other men. It’s a woman’s nation. What’s she going have? A woman god, or a goddess.
::(1) ''Now, then, after that, I turned and looked. And I saw this United States burning like a smolder, rocks had been blowed up. And it was burning like a—a heap of fire in logs, or something that just set it afire. And looked as far as I could see, and she had been blown up. And then the vision left me. Five out of the three has happened…or five out of the seven, rather, has happened.


200 Now, in 1933, when we were worshipping over here in the Masonic temple, where the church of Christ stands today. On one April morning, before leaving home… I was dedicating my car. I got a ’33 model car, and I was dedicating it to the Lord’s service. And in a vision, I saw the end time. Now notice how striking this is, back yonder when I was just a boy. And you can imagine what a 1933 model car looked like, now, what it looked like. And I went over there to the Masonic temple, where…Some of you old-timers in here remembers. It’s wrote down on old paper, at home. It’s already in print and went out around the world. See? That was in 1933. And I predicted that there would be some great tragedy happen to this United States before or by the year of 1977. How many remembers me saying that? [The old-timers say, “Amen.”—Ed.] Look at the hand. Sure. 201 Now watch. I predicted seven things was yet in the making of the…before this great consummation or great thing would take place here in the United States, some great horrible thing. I said… Now remember, this is before it started. I said we would go into a Second World War. How many remember hearing me say it? Say, “Amen.” [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] All right. A Second World War! I said, “The President that now is…” I copied this off the old scripture, yet, the old thing yesterday, that, “The President that we now have,” which was…How many remembers whose it was? [A brother says, “Franklin Roosevelt.”] Franklin D. Roosevelt. I said, “The President we have in now will run even in the fourth term,” he was on his first then, “will run into the fourth term, and we will be taken to a Second World War.” 202 I said, “The dictator that’s now arising in Italy, which is Mussolini, he will come into power. And he will go to Ethiopia, and Ethiopia will fall at his steps.” There is people setting here now that knows, that there’s a group of people come and stood, when I was having my meeting in the Redman’s Hall down there that night, when I had to go down there to preach that, Redman’s Hall, and was going to throw me out of the hall for saying such a thing. [Sister Wilson says, “Amen. That’s right.”—Ed.] Yeah. Yeah. Mrs. Wilson, I know you’re…[“That’s right.”] That’s right. When I said that…But did he do it? “But,” I said, “he’ll come to a shameful end,” and he did. Him and the woman he run with, was turned up-side-down and hung on a rope in the street, with their feet up, their clothes hanging down. All right, that come to pass. 203 And then I said, “The women has been permitted to vote. Which is absolutely a disgrace upon the nation. And, in voting, some day they’ll elect the wrong man.” And they did that in this last election. My, my! Four…(I said, “Science will progress in such a way…”) No, here, that’s third. Pardon me. 204 Here is the next one, there, the fourth. I said, “Our war will be with Germany, and they will build a great big concrete place and fortify themselves in there, and the Americans will take a horrible beating.” Almighty God knows, that Who I stand before now, I seen those independent Nazis kick at the Americans like that, and things, at that wall. [A man in the congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] And there is many boys standing here now that was at that Siegfried Line, that knows what it was. [“Amen. Yes, sir. Amen.”] And remember, that was eleven years before the Siegfried Line was built. Is God true? [Congregation says, “Amen.”] Does He still foretell things to happen? [“Amen.”] Watch. That’s, that was the fourth. 205 Now the fifth thing. “Science will progress in such a way until they will make a car that will not have to be guided by a steering wheel. And the cars will continue to be shaped like an egg, until the consummation, the end time. I seen American family going down the road, in a broad way, riding in a car with their backs turned towards where the wheel should be, looked like they were playing checkers or cards.” And we got it. It’s on television. Popular Science, Mechanics, rather, all have it. We got the car. It’s controlled by a remote control, by—by radar. They won’t even have to have any steering wheel in it. Just set your dial like this, like you dial your phone, and your car takes you right on to it; can’t wreck, nor nothing, no other cars. The magnet keeps the rest of them away from you. See? They got it. Oh, my! Think of it. Predicted thirty years before it happened! 206 Now, that brings us then to the election of President Kennedy. And this car coming on the—on the scene, bringing five things (out of the seven) that has happened exactly. 207 Now, I predicted, and have said, “I saw a great woman stand up, beautiful-looking, dressed in real highly royal-like purple.” And I got little parenthesis down here, “(She was a great ruler in the United States; perhaps the Catholic church.)” A woman, some woman; I don’t know it’ll be the Catholic church. I don’t know. I can’t say. Only thing I seen, I seen the woman, that was all. 208 But this is a woman’s nation. This nation is number thirteen, in prophecy. She’s got thirteen stripes, thirteen stars. She started thirteen colonies. Thirteen, thirteen, everything is thirteen. Appears in the 13th chapter of Revelations, even. She is thirteen. And she is a woman nation. 209 The divorce courts in America produce more divorces, by our women, than all the rest of the nations. The morals in our country is lower, and divorces, than it is in France or Italy, where prostitution is on the street. So, but they are prostitutes; ours is married women trying to live with several men, and several married men trying to live with other women. 210 In the nations where they have polygamy, it’s a thousand times better. And, yet, polygamy is wrong, we know. But, just show how degraded we are. 211 I got a piece up there out of the paper, where it showed that when our American boys went overseas, in this last war, that over, I believe, it was around seventy percent…Why, now, wait a minute, I believe it was three out of four that went overseas, was divorced by their wife before they got back. And its great big headline says, “What’s happened to the morals of our American people?” You remember seeing it? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] All of you did, I guess. “What’s happened to the morals of our American women?” Plants, working out yonder with other men. It’s a woman’s nation. What’s she going have? A woman god, or a goddess. 212 Now, then, after that, I turned and looked. And I saw this United States burning like a smolder, rocks had been blowed up. And it was burning like a—a heap of fire in logs, or something that just set it afire. And looked as far as I could see, and she had been blown up. And then the vision left me. Five out of the three has happened…or five out of the seven, rather, has happened. 213 And here comes around and shows. And then I predicted. I never said the Lord told me that, but, standing that morning in the church, I said, “The way progress…” I got back to one end of their wall, and run to the other end of the wall. I said, “The way progress is going on, I’ll predict that the time…I don’t know why I’m saying it. But I predict that that’ll all happen between right now, 1933, and 1977.” And not knowing it, God knows my heart, I never knowed it until yesterday, that 1977 is the jubilee, and exactly the same amount of time run out that He give with Israel, and everything at the end. So we’re at…And here we are at the end of the age, at the coming in of the seventieth week. We don’t know what time that the Church will be gone. Oh, my! What can we do, friends? Where we at?<ref>William Branham,  57-0407M - God Keeps His Word, para. 49-50</ref>
