7 Visions
Branham supposedly had 7 Visions in 1933 according to his Followers. At the time he had these visions, he wrote them down on a piece of paper which he kept tucked into one of his Bibles (see, “Teaching on Moses,” preached in 1956, message #56-0513). First let us look at their claim and compare it to the facts. Afterwards I will present each Vision.
As I stated his Followers said the 7 Visions were given to him in 1933 but they say that because that is what Branham told them since none of them were around at the time of his 7 Visions. Let us see exactly what Branham said about his 7 Visions.
In his message of “Condemnation by Representation” (message #60-1113): (Preached on Sunday, 13th November 1960 at the Branham Tabernacle in Jeffersonville, Indiana):” he reads the list he supposedly wrote down and kept in his Bible. — Here is part of what he said in that sermon.
1932: (Listen to this.) As I was on my way… Or as I was getting ready to go on my way to church this morning, it came to pass that I fell into a vision. Our services is being held on Meigs Avenue at the old orphans’ home, where Charlie Kern lives in part of the building.” (He lives just across the street now, you know.) And it came to pass that while I was in this vision I seen some dreadful things take place. I speak this in the Name of the Lord.
This is the only time he read from this supposed list but notice when he read from it he said 1932 instead of 1933 but the other times he told about the 7 Visions they happened in 1933 and we can understand how his Followers thought it was 1933 though the time he read the list it was in 1932.
I read one person in 2003 believing the list existed will be an important artifact to his Followers wrote to Voice Of God Recordings asking for a copy. They wrote him saying they don’t have the list because it was put in the corner stone of the Church built in 1933. That presented a problem for this person because since 1956 he said he had the list in his Bible and read from the list in 1960. Something was not right! In late 1970’s (1978 or 79) a Car ran into the Church and damage the corner stone and the elders of the church saw a chance to see all that was buried there. They found nothing!
If the list was found in the cornerstone of Branham Tabernacle, we could say he had told people about those visions as early as 1933 but since the list wasn’t found there isn’t any proof anyone knew of the list until he mentioned the list of 7 Visions in the sermon “Israel at the Red Sea #1”, message #53-0326, on March 26, 1953 which is around 20 years later and was the first time he mentioned the 7 Visions. There isn’t any proof he made any of those predictions before any of them came to pass.
Here is the “7 Visions List.” — FDR To Lead the World to War — Mussolini — Watch Russia — Women Will Elect the Wrong Person —The Maginot (or Siegfried) Line — Egg-shaped, Driverless Cars — Destruction of the United States. I will examine each of those predictions but let us keep in mind he never mentioned any of the 7 Visions until 1953 and we will learn Branham was talking after the fact and he didn’t do his homework of World War 2.
FDR Will Lead the World to War: — The president which now is, President Franklin D. Roosevelt… (Now remember, this is twenty-eight years ago.) will cause the whole world to go to war — Germany never picked on us; we picked on them, throwed the whole world into a war, to cause a world war. (Condemnation by Representation, Jeffersonville, IN, tape #60-1113) — We now have a president (Dwi… Mr. Roosevelt), and this Mr. Roosevelt will cause the world to go into a world war through his–in his time of his administration, his–his–as president. (Conference, Shreveport, LA tape #60-1125).
Roosevelt was President from 1933 to 1945 when he died. But he never caused the whole world to go to War as Branham claimed. The true facts of WW 2 Follows.
After WWW1 Germany signed a treaty called the “Versailles Treaty” which was not fair to Germany. When Hitler started rising to power he broke the treaty by forming an alliance with Austria which was against the treaty but the European Countries and the USA were lenient and overlook the fact he was breaking the Treaty. Hitler took that as a sign of weakness and attacked Czechoslovakia and conquered it. He then set his sights on Poland and when he attack Poland it caused Britain and France to take action and declare war on Germany. — Notice Hitler started attacking countries first and it was Britain and France declaring war on Germany. The USA still wasn’t involved.
Hitler’s Goal was to conquer all of Europe and The German army quickly defeated the Polish forces and proceeded to attack and conquer most of Western Europe, including Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway and France. There were many nations that had declared war on other nations before the USA did and they declared War on Japan December 8 1941 after Japan attacked us at Pearl Harbor. December 11 1941 Germany declare war on USA and so we declared War on Germany the same day. None of this was FDR’s fault and no we didn’t pick on Germany. History shows it was the other way.
This is one of Branham’s Visions that didn’t come to past as he said.
Mussolini: — and the new dictator of Italy, Mussolini, shall make his first invasion towards Ethiopia, and he will take Ethiopia; but that’ll be his last. He shall come to his end.
(“Condemnation by Representation”)
True Mussolini attacked Ethiopia and conquered it but that wasn’t his end. He seized Albania and then afterwards He attack Greece and the British in Egypt 1940 with the help of Hitler. Therefore he continue for awhile and didn’t meet his end until 1945. — Another Vision Failed.
Watch Russia: — We will be in war with Germany. Watch Russia. (Now, that’s…) Communism, Nazism, and Fascism… Watch Russia. But that is not the main one to watch. (Condemnation by Representation)
This Vision changed dramatically from the original during the course of Branham’s life. There are 3 variations of this Vision. Let us look at them.
And I said, “There’ll be three great isms, Communism, Fascism, and Nazism.” And I said, “They’ll wind up in one ism, and that one ism will dominate the world and will burn the Vatican City.” — (Israel at the Red Sea #1, tape #53-032) — Now, if you’ll give me one more night, if God does, I’ll prove to you that communism is working straight in the hands of Almighty God to destroy the Roman… And remember, I say this as God’s prophet: The Russian empire will drop an atomic bomb of some sort on the Vatican City and destroy it in one hour. THUS SAITH THE LORD. (The Mark of the Beast, tape #54-0513) — Under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, I said, “Now, there’s going to be three great isms. Which is now in existence. One of them is in Rome, which is–is Fascism, and one of them is in Germany which is Nazi–Nazism. And the other one is in Russia, which is communism.” I said, “Those three great isms is the unclean spirits that went out of the mouth of the false prophet, and the dragons, and so forth that will unite themselves together, speaking things that they should not, and they’ll all beat at one another, until they’ll finally wind up in one ism. And I predict that that will be communism. And communism will burn the Vatican city. (Faith Once Delivered to the Saints, tape #55-0501)
Notice he said it was “Thus Saith the Lord” and the Vatican will be destroy by Russia with an atomic Bomb. Russia is no longer a Power and the Vatican is still standing and had not been burned or an atomic bomb dropped on it. Also Russia never achieved world domination as Branham predicted.
Also Branham has the 3 Isms as the 3 unclean spirits coming out of the Mouth of the False Prophet and the Dragon. Revelation 16:13 talks about the 3 unclean spirits but they are like frogs and they not only come from the Dragon and the False Prophet but also comes from the mouth of the Beast which is the Muslim’s Mahdi and the false prophet is Islam’s Jesus. Notice I didn’t say our Jesus.
Women Will Elect the Wrong Person: — There are 3 versions to this vision.
It shall–also has been an evil thing done in this country; they have permitted women to vote. This is a woman’s nation, and she will pollute this nation as Eve did Eden… In her voting she will elect the wrong person…Then when these women help elect the wrong person, then I seen a great woman rise up in the United States, well-dressed and beautiful, but cruel in heart. She will either guide or lead this nation to ruination. (I’ve got in parenthesis “perhaps Catholic church.”) (Condemnation by Representation) — And I said, “It will come to pass before the end time comes that there will be a great woman stand up in the United States, because the United States is marked woman. Her number is thirteen, and she’ll rise up, either be president, or (I put it in parentheses) perhaps the woman being beautiful and attractive will be the Catholic church but cruel at heart, and she’ll lead the nation to pollution. (Conference,” November 11, 1960, sermon #60-1125) —
These are the first 2 and in both of them the supposed beautiful woman he said could be the Catholic Church. There is one more Version.
Now, that brings us then to the election of President Kennedy, and this car coming on the—on the scene, bringing five things out of the seven that has happened exactly. Now, I predicted and said, “I saw a great woman stand up, beautiful looking, dressed in real highly royals like purple,” and I got little parenthesis down here, “(She was a great ruler in the United States, perhaps the Catholic church.)” A woman, some woman… I don’t know her to be the Catholic church. I don’t know. I can’t say. Only thing I seen, I seen the woman; that was all. But this is a woman’s nation. This nation is number thirteen in prophecy. She’s got thirteen stripes, thirteen stars; she started thirteen colonies. Thirteen, thirteen, everything’s thirteen, appears in the 13th chapter of Revelations even. She’s thirteen, and she’s a woman’s nation. — (“The Seventieth Week Of Daniel,’ August 6, 1961)
No place in Prophecies is the USA mentioned and least of all as a thirteenth Nation in Prophecy. She is not mentioned in Revelation 13 either.
The Maginot (or Siegfried) Line: — Notice there are 2 names and they are actually 2 different things. Branham as usual didn’t do his home work.
The Americans will take a great beating at a place that Germany will build, which will be a great wall built of concrete (The Maginot Line, eleven years before it was ever built.) But finally they will be victors. (Condemnation by Representation)
Here Branham called it the Maginot Line and stated this vision was given to him 11 years before it was built.
Truth: — The Maginot Line was a wall of defense built by France, not Germany, in order to provide the French with a barrier from the Germans. Construction of the Maginot Line started in 1929 and ended in 1940. So the Maginot Line started before 1933 and not afterwards as Branham said and he said Germany Will which is a future tense. Also the USA didn’t take a beating there. It was at the Siegfried Line which Germany built they took a beating loosing 140,000 Soldiers. When listening or reading his other sermons he changed the Maginot Line to the Siegfried Line. Evidently he learned a little more of WW2 History. Still according to him at first when he read his supposed list he kept in his Bible it was the Maginot Line. I don’t believe God will give him a Vision with the wrong facts. I believe Branham made these Visions up as he went along.
Egg-shaped, Driverless Cars: — There are 2 parts to this vision and each part has its own Problems and you will see Branham’s Driverless cars were added to the Vision later.
Egg-Shaped Cars: — It depends on what you call an egg-shaped Car. Since I been driving I saw Many Cars and none of them are technically Egg-Shape. They are more like locomotives and in some cases they had big tail fins. The Egg-Shaped Cars were introduced in 1942 but they didn’t catch on because of the aerodynamics and they weren’t feasible. Many of our cars today are like cubes.
Notice it was introduce in 1942 and if he had those 7 visions it look like he will be saying in 1942 the Vision was fulfilled. But the first time he mentioned egg-shapes cars was in March 1953 and than in May 1955 and then in January and March 1957. Nothing in those sermons about Driverless Cars. My question is why weren’t they mentioned in any of those Sermons if this is part of the Vision.
Driverless Cars: — “The cars in that day will be shaped like an egg, running back like in this form there. And it’ll be controlled by some kind of a power that they won’t even have to use the steering wheel at times, just set her and go on like that (See?), before the annihilation.” (“Life,” 2nd June 1957, sermon #57-0602)
This sermon was the first mentioned of a Driverless Car. As I stated earlier no place did he mention his 7 Visions until after the Facts and if you can get hold of Some Magazines and News Papers You will see they were already in the news as some of them were ads and not for the driverless cars. Also Branham said it will be before the Annihilation or 1977. Although the thought did exist it is in our age Driverless Cars started being produce and this is 2019 and we didn’t have them before 1977. The Link will show a picture of an Ad for Power companies in 1956 which is the year before he first mentioned the Driver Less Cars.
Destruction of the United States: — Then I seen the United States as one smoldering, burnt-over place. It will be near the end. (Then I’ve got in parenthesis: “I predict that this will take place.” Now, remember, the Lord … That’s what the Lord showed, but “I predict this will take place before 1977.”) Upon this prediction, I base, because of the onrushing slaught that’s coming now, how fast that it was moving, how long it’ll take till this nation meets its place. (“Condemnation by Representation)
Notice Branham said the Lord showed it to him. It is now 2019 which is 42 years later and still the United States hasn’t been destroyed nor has the termination of the world Systems come to pass nor the Lord’s Return
He didn’t have any 7 visions and when he finally started speaking about them many of those Visions changed as time went on and mostly they were different than what the original he gave. Branham Lied about the Visions and the other things he claimed.
Wake Up People. Branham is False. There will be some still stay with Branham regardless the evidence give showing he is false.
