The book of Revelation holds the mystery through prophecy of the Christian Church since the time of Christ.  In the book of Revelation, an Angel spoke to John about seven churches, listing their positive and negative attributes.  William Branham taught that an Angel spoke to him and revealed that each of these churches represents a different period in the history of Christianity, each with a special messenger to the church of that day.   
The book of Revelation holds the mystery through prophecy of the Christian Church since the time of Christ.  In the book of Revelation, an Angel spoke to John about seven churches, listing their positive and negative attributes.  William Branham taught that an Angel spoke to him and revealed that each of these churches represents a different period in the history of Christianity, each with a special messenger to the church of that day.  However, his teaching on the church ages is remarkably similar to that of Clarence Larkin, who wrote a book on the book of Revelation that dealt with the seven church ages and the seven seals.  Did William Branham [[Plagiarism|plagiarize]] the teachings of Clarence Larkin?  Or did his teachings really come to him from an angel?
