=William Branham said it happened=
William Branham stated:
:''And then you notice down at the bottom, it had… did you read the little, little inset at the bottom, about raising the dead? Now remember, before you publish anything, you have to be able to prove that. So '''we’ve got documented statements from doctors, mayors of the city, and so forth,''' like that, '''that doctor’s pronounced them dead and gone for as many as eight and ten hours and coming back to life again''', through prayer. So it’s a documented statement. This book goes all over the world and translated in different languages and everything. It’s like the Reader’s Digest, amongst the Christian people. And it has to be authentic and has to prove those things when you say them.<ref>William Branham, 61-0318 - Abraham's Covenant Confirmed, para. 8</ref>
:''Now, remember, you who reading these Christian Business Men, when they put in there ‘has raised the dead,’ remember, before you can put that in public, you have to have documented statements from doctors and so forth that that’s true. And everything you read in there, '''we’ve got documented statements of it'''.<ref>William Branham,  61-0412 - A Greater Than Solomon Is Here, para. 24</ref>
:''Now, I have never healed anybody in all my life. But I have seen the Lord heal tens of thousands, of '''documented statements from doctors and great hospitals like Mayos'''’. And—and I have seen Him in my short ministry of twenty-eight years for Him, '''with documented statements, raise up four dead people to this day''', that had done passed beyond the curtain of time and was raised. Which we have the statements from the doctors, that—that pronounced them dead and back to life.<ref>William Branham,  61-0519 - Sirs, We Would See Jesus, para. 5</ref>
But this doesn't exist.  It's not true.
