Trying to tie the Municipal Bridge Vision to the Ohio Flood is virtually impossible unless you are willing to admit that most of the vision was completely wrong but then, doesn't that still create a problem with Deuteronomy 18:22? | Trying to tie the Municipal Bridge Vision to the Ohio Flood is virtually impossible unless you are willing to admit that most of the vision was completely wrong but then, doesn't that still create a problem with Deuteronomy 18:22? | ||
=The vision properly relates to the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia= | |||
[[Cognitive Dissonance]] drives people to find explanations, even if things have to be stretched beyond the realms of reasonableness. The thought that William Branham was not a prophet is just not possible for their minds to deal with. | |||
The rationale for the Sydney Harbour bridge being the actual object of the prophecy is as follows: | |||
#16 people were killed in the construction of the bridge. | |||
#The bridge was opened in March 1932 and if you roll back 22 years, that takes you about the time that William Branham was born. | |||
#William Branham never mentioned the Municipal Bridge in the original vision. | |||
The issues that proponents of this wild theory don't consider is the following: | |||
*In the FIRST recorded retelling of the vision in 1948 (48-0302), William Branham specifically refers to the municipal bridge. | |||
#While 16 people did die in the construction of the Sydney Harbour bridge, only 2 of these people died from falling off the bridge. William Branham clearly stated that he saw 16 people fall of the bridge. | |||
#William Branham stated that he had the vision when he was 5 or 6 years old when he had the vision, so 22 years later would put the Sydney Bridge deaths much too early in time. | |||
