William Branham's theological system is an example of the "if-you’re-a-hammer-everything’sa-nail" syndrome.  His approach to Biblical texts is to find and quote only those that support his theological beliefs—his status as a prophet, serpent seed, Larkin's dispensationalism, the message dress code, etc.  This may or may not be appropriate based on the text(s) under consideration.
