If the message of William Branham was supposed to restore the church to the faith of its fathers, it failed. How could William Branham be the messenger to the church of Laodicea, the Elijah prophet, the angel of Revelation 10:7, when the fruit of his ministries, his followers, look nothing like the first fruits, the early church.

  Jesse Smith: I'm sorry, Brother. You haven't found love within message circles. That's heartbreaking. That's heartbreaking. And the reason I think is because they haven't obeyed the Bible. I cannot speak for others in the message. I wasn't a witness of any of your interactions. I wasn't there.

But I hope and believe there is some love in some of those churches there. I would just believe there's somebody there with the real love of God. We're commanded to go to our brothers and meekness Galatians six, one and two. I think the main problem is many are not born again. Jesus said few there be that, find it in Matthew seven, 14.

Leo Mercer, one of the tape boys, was accused of molesting and abusing children at the park in testimony given in the Supreme court of California. Other bad fruit would include people like Paulaseer Lowery. Roger Rudin, Paul Schäfer, Don Parnell. Paul Schäfer had a [00:05:00] movie made about him. Details are on our website. We have an upcoming series of podcasts, which will be an exposition of Joseph Coleman and the seven thunders movement.

One of the worst examples is Lee Vale, who took William Branham's teachings, and from them, started teaching that Jesus Christ was not deity. He got that from William Branham's teaching. His followers are not even Christians. How could William Branham be the messenger of the church of Laodicea with such a lack of discernment with respect to bad leadership fruit?

Jesse Smith: Okay. One thing is true, I'm sure a lot of those things are true. I don't know why God didn't give him discernment. I guess that'd be between him and God. You and I, Rod, we can't discern everybody, and I think the same is true about Brother Branham. The disciples, now I know they didn't have the Holy Ghost, but they couldn't discern Judas because at the last supper they said, is it, I that's going to be betray us. God kept it from him. So there's times God keeps it from us where we're not able to discern everybody.
