During this sermon William Branham also encourages his congregation to [[Amos 3:3|dis-fellowship from other Christians]], saying ''“The Message going out right here is to “Stay away from that poison thing!” See? See? 'How can two walk together lest they be agreed’”''? | |||

In his sermon on the third seal, William Branham stated: | |||
:''I always wondered, all my life, why I was so against organizational systems. Not the people, no. The people are just like me or you, or anybody else. But that system, that denominational system, now I see it right here. I never knowed it till now. And that’s right.<ref>William Branham, 63-0320 - The Third Seal, para. 154</ref> | |||
If William Branham discovered the errors of Denominations during the Third Seal, why did he preach “Why are we not a denomination” (also titled “The Great Harlot”) on September 27, 1958 and identify “the mark of the beast, which is Romanism; and the image of the beast, which is Protestantism” in a sermon on March 18, 1962? | |||

We have seen where William Branham received his revelation of the first 2 seals. Is the third seal any different? | |||
In his sermon on the third seal, William Branham tells us: | |||
:''But this morning, early, the Holy Spirit came to where I was. And just as plain as anything, I—I seen this other Seal open up now, just exactly. Now—now—now, He hears me, I know. And I’m very grateful.<ref>63-0320 - The Third Seal, para. 20</ref> | |||
So William Branham is again clear that he got his revelation directly from God. He didn’t get it from anyone else. | |||
Here is his revelation which he discloses towards the end of his sermon: | |||
:''Same rider, now.<ref>63-0320 - The Third Seal, para. 273</ref> | |||
Not surprisingly, we find Russel saying the same thing in his book, The Finished Mystery: | |||
:''And when He had opened the third seal. — Disclosing the third epoch in the history of Antichrist. | |||
'' | :''And he that sat on him. — The same rider, the Antichrist.<ref>Charles Taze Russell, Studies in the Scriptures, Volume VII, The Finished Mystery: The Winepress of God's Wrath and the Fall of Babylon (published posthumously), edited by C. J. Woodworth and George H. Fisher, copyright 1917, Peoples Pulpit Association, Brooklyn, N. Y., USA, International Bible Students Association, published 1918, p. 149</ref> | ||
Why did William Branham take the words of Charles Russell and proclaim them as God’s message? | |||
:''So I, the LORD, affirm that I am opposed to those prophets who steal messages from one another that they claim are from me.<ref>Jeremiah 23:30, NET</ref> | |||
