Unfortunately some people don't realize that the 'Christian' thing to do is not to sit idly by and let abuses continue. But they think they are serving God and letting these wolves in sheep's clothing fleece them. It's sad, but the Bible told us it would happen.

=Unanswered questions about the message=
#20 years ago, I was in a car with my Dad crossing the Ohio River from Jeffersonville to Louisville. I asked my Dad, "Which bridge did WMB see the 16 men fall from"? He looked straight ahead, and said, "I have never been able to figure out which bridge it was."
#I was as troubled by the attitudes I saw in message followers, and began to read my Bible avidly. I was curious about the five comings of Elijah, and could not find the references, so I called my mom to ask her. She said, "I don't think there is an actual Bible reference to Elijah coming five times. It was something Bro. Branham taught."
#The assistant minister at our church yelled, "Don't they know that Elias must come first"? I sat there wondering why he didn’t quote the rest of the verse, where Jesus said that Elias had already come, but you didn't know it (John the Baptist).
#A minister discovered a discrepancy in Bro. Branham’s math, and taught that the end of the United States would be in 1984, rather than 1977. In 1985, he realized that the date should have been 1994 instead. When he passed on, he said, “Bro. Branham lied to us!”
