WITNESSES TO THE BRANHAM MINISTRY

The following are certified testimonies from well-known preachers and evangelists from around the world concerning the ministry of William Marrion Branham:

F. F. Bosworth

When the gift is operating, Brother Branham is the most sensitive person to the presence and working of the Holy Spirit and to spiritual realities of any person I have known.” (- A Prophet Visits South Africa)

Pearry Green

I want to say that I have been privileged to interact so often with Brother Branham. I was the last minister ordained by this prophet of God. I was the last person that was seen by him in a public vision. I was the last preacher that he heard preach. I had the privilege of being the last one he served the Lord’s Supper to, and I was the last one to serve him. I was the first person to see him when he regained consciousness, which was at the time that I told him about the moon and the blood-red-colored teardrop. I was the last person that he tried to speak to. I was the first believer to know that he had left this life—I was the first believer to see and touch his body after he had passed away. I was the first believer that saw him in the shipping casket, dressed in a white robe. I was the first believer that saw his body after it was prepared for the funeral. My hands were the last ones to touch Brother Branham’s body. And, I was the last person to view Brother Branham’s body as the casket was closed. Why do I recount my personal experiences with Brother Branham? I want you to know I was privileged. Having these experiences doesn’t make me better, but they are facts that happened in my life and my ministry with Brother Branham. What excuse will I have on that day? I knew Brother Branham; I saw him; I had the privilege to talk with him, to observe him, and to spend some time with him. I claim to have heard all of Brother Branham’s sermons and to have read all of his sermons that are transcribed and printed in books. What excuse will I have when I stand before God, if I’m not obedient to it? All of this doesn’t make me more important or greater than anyone else; it makes me more responsible. I can say without reservation that God has visited this generation with a mighty prophet—William Marrion Branham—"

God has chosen diverse and mysterious ways to reveal Himself to His servants especially those called for dispensational purposes as was Brother Branham’s call. In short, the man we know as William Branham was sent to demonstrate God again in flesh" (- William Branham Memorial Service)

James Gordon Lindsay

Never had we known of any preacher calling deaf, mutes and blind people to pray for, and then to see those people delivered on the spot... a ministry that was beyond any that we had before witnessed" (-The House that the Lord Built)

Oral Roberts

A humble devout man of God.” (- Healing Waters, July 1948)

Jack Moore

The most gifted of all the evangelists.” (- All Thingsare Possible by David Harell, Jr)

Joseph Mattson-Boze

Sometimes I was scared because of the deep sense of holiness that penetrated the meeting, but I never failed to see the gift of God in operation through His servant and feel the warmth of love that flowed through his ministry.” (- The Herald of Faith, February 1966)

George Ekeroth

God called this humble man and anointed his ministry to a degree that within a few short years his name was known in the most remote jungle outstation. Wherever you would go in this world you would find that the name of this messenger has preceded you.” (- Introduction of Morris Cerullo’s Book, Wind Over the 20th Century)

James Morris

It was Branham, more than any other evangelist, who started the postWorld War-II fundamentalist healing revival following his encounter with an angel on May 7, 1946 . Word radiated in every direction that all manner of diseases and afflictions were healed instantly by the little Indiana preacher. Even cases of raising the dead were published." (- The Preachers)

Thomas R. Nickel

In Bible days, there were men of God who were prophets and seers. But in all the sacred records, none of these had a greater ministry than that of William Branham, a Prophet and Seer of God, whose photograph appears on the front cover of this issue of Full Gospel Men’s Voice. Branham has been used by God, in the Name of Jesus, to raise the dead.” (-Full Gospel Men’s Voice Magazine, February 1961)

David Edwin Harrell Jr

Most of the participants of the healing revival that erupted in 1947 looked upon Branham as its initiator. William Branham became a prophet to a generation. Night after night, before thousands of awed believers, he discerned the diseases of the sick and pronounced them healed. The power of a Branham service remains a legend unparalleled in the history of the Charismatic Movement.” (-All ThingsAre Possible)
