A testimony of a former message believer

I was raised in the message from birth and under that protective wing of its embrace or rather "bubble" I did wonder why no one I spoke with had ever heard of this man who was all too familiar to me.

I listened to his stories, I knew his family and children as tho I sat at their dinner table. I visited his home town and saw all the places he told us about.

I cherished the stories I heard and I respected this man above most any other.

That message world I knew- was my world. Why was it so very different from everything else? No one had heard of him, when I was asked what I believed it was so much easier to just say: oh, I'm kinda like a branch off of Pentecostal but nondenominational...

I reasoned in my own mind that perhaps in his day everyone knew him! Of course they did! Right? And my, how very privileged was I to know this "in my day".

I reasoned that he had indeed had this world wide ministry but the world had rejected him and therefore we also were rejected. Billy Graham moved on. Oral Roberts went on. But William Branham.... He died tragically. His tapes still play in a small sect of homes here and there. That small sect still quote him as their prophet of "their day" tho he died generations before.

They claim a word for today that has long gone by and they refuse to move forward. The mana isn't fresh. It doesn't produce a Christ like spirit. It didn't move forward. It halted with a man and that man is what and who they continue to point you to.

A man the world by far really didn't know and never heard of.

Go to the farthest places from you and seek out someone and ask them who Jesus is. Perhaps they follow him, perhaps they don't. But I'll bet you 9 out of 10 they have at least heard of him.

Jesus the last true prophet sent by God. Jesus the son of God. Jesus who came to reconcile, redeem, restore. Jesus the savior of the world. Jesus the lamb of God the mediator forever. Jesus the one who spoke and said: IT IS FINISHED.

So tell me why no one has heard of William Branham. Why message followers are delusional in their thinking that they are something to be concerned with that the Catholic Church would bother to alter documents. Why they are hated of the world, when the world truly doesn't know they exist. They are but a grain of sand on the beach.

Bring that to their attention and they will tell you, it's because they are one of the few. The number will be so small for their rapture to be as a thief in the night. Remember in the days of Noah.... Only 8 souls were saved.

Good thing God said to whosoever will, huh?

Ask them why when William Branham died no one knew him at the hospital and wondered why this man drew a larger numbers of visitors. Why did his hometown newspaper need to interview and ask what on earth was going on- to which they were told, he would rise again.

A man. Not a popular man. Not a famous man. His name circulated within fanatical groups and became less than the shake of a head in those who were mainstream.

Now ask yourself if God sent a prophet to your day or your generation, would he be dead? Would his words reflect another time or another world altogether gone by?

Would he be a secret?

I know my God doesn't do anything half way. When the pillar of fire led the children of Israel by night it was also a cloud by day and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM SAW IT. It encompassed them.

When my God parted the Red Sea, there was no question.

When my God sent his son to die on a cross for the sins of the world never one time was the words "one of the few" used. He said ALL. Whosoever!

He then told his apostles and disciples to go into all the world and share the good news.

Only a cultish mindset withdraw themselves to a point that even the world looks upon them as odd. They close themselves off from society and society in turn leaves them alone. The world continues to spin and the cultish group tried very hard to pretend it isn't.

I know the reason may seem rather weak at first glance but think of it as a whole.

I guarantee you when Jesus does what he promised to do and that is to return: all the world will know.

He didn't promise to send a prophet to gather lose ends or restore a word. He promised to come again.

When Jesus said IT IS FINISHED. He meant it.
