||[[1933 Ohio River Experience]].  The June 2, 1933 Jeffersonville Evening News reported 14 conversions in a tent meeting held by William Branham.  This is far less than 5,000 witnessing an light coming down on the Ohio river when the 17th person was being baptised, as told by William BranhamWhat is the truth about this story?

||[[Heavenly Vision]].  Read a vision written in William Branham's own words, taken from the tract "I Was Not Disobedient To The Heavenly Vision", which tells of a vision that commissioned his healing ministry in March, 1945. Note that this does not correspond to Israel becoming a nation, and the vision does not mention an angelic commission.

||[[Was William Branham Honest]]? "Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another." (Ephesians 4:25) What would you do if you caught William Branham lying on the tapesWould anyone believe you?  
||[[Plum and Apple Trees]]. William Branham had a vision on the morning he laid the cornerstone for the Branham Tabernacle of a grove of plum and apple trees. His interpretation of this vision is clear - both Trinitarians and Oneness believers are found in the CrossSo why did he later teach that people who followed the trinity were lostWas this early vision wrong, or was his later doctrine wrong?

||[[The Cloud]].  At around sunset on February 28, 1963, a cloud appeared in the vicinity of Flagstaff, AZ and remained sunlit for 28 minutes after sunset. Believers of William Branham's see it as a supernatural sign the preceded William Branham's opening of the Seven Seals. Read the various quotes about this prophecy, and how they constantly change.

||[[Prophecy of the Cloud|Vision of the Angels]]. Message Believers may point to this prophecy as being recorded on the tapes, and later fulfilled. But read the prophecy closelyWhere is Joseph?  Where are the litte birds? Where are the larger birds?  Why are there only 5 angels in the vision?  Why is the cloud not mentioned in this vision?

||[[The Timing of Cloud Events]].  For years, followers of William Branham believed that he was hunting on February 28, 1963, the day the cloud appeared over Flagstaff.  But William Branham preached in Texas on March 4, 1963, after which he drove back to Tucson to go hunting.  Why is this imporant?  It's because he wasn't on Sunset Mountain when the cloud appeared.
