So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. – Hebrews 6:18
The Bible said a tongue is sharper than a two edged sword. Words hurt and cause much damage. Words are hard to forget. They leave an impression upon you in their attempt to sway you and influence you. There are words of affirmation. They will build you up and lift your spirits. Words can be spoken in love. Love is patient, kind, and gentle. Then there are words that hurt you. They oppress you and surround you with the darkness of a lie. They will attempt to defeat you, and never allow you to know the light of grace and mercy. They hide the truth from you, separating you from light, they weaken your faith.
Light will drive darkness away. The Bible tells us His word is a light unto our path. Faith comes by hearing the word of God. In Him is life and that life is the light of men. There is love, mercy, and grace. These are not found in darkness.
“For we cannot oppose the truth, but must always stand for the truth.” – 2 Corinthians 13
So all this here pretty and beauty stuff, that comes from the devil. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
By her beauty and her sex control, her shape that was given to her by Satan. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
She is a perversion of the original creation. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Only a piece, scrap, made of a man, to deceive him by; God made it, right here has proved it. That’s what she was made for. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Every sin that ever was on the earth was caused by a woman. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
So all this here pretty and beauty stuff, that comes from the devil. That’s exactly right. 54-0620
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
But beauty is one of the most deceitful things there is. 57-1006
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
There is nothing designed to be so deceitful, as a woman that’s deceitful. 57-1006
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Look at the stars and their brilliance. Listen to the ocean waves clap their hands. Remember the hues of crisp autumn leaves, snow capped mountain peaks, watch a glowing sunrise and sunset. Look at the leopard’s spots, a tiger’s stripes, and all of the exquisite patterns and designs of His animals. They not only look different, they sound different, each given a unique sound all their own.
There are thousands of species of delicate flowers, their fragrances unique. The brilliant variety of tropical fish, the living coral of the deep ocean, the beautiful shells washed up on a beach. Now, think of the tiniest micro-organism, a machine man cannot duplicate.
Each fingerprint and snowflake different, not one is the same. See the peacock’s feathers, the iridescent wings of an insect, the brilliant colors of all creation in its variety and complex design; came from a Creator. Each and every piece of creation was imagined, hand painted, and given life by God. This intricate design of creation, it’s so vast and wonderful, our human minds are too inadequate to take it in.
Now tell me the woman was not a part of God’s plan. Tell me she was an afterthought. Tell me God made her from scraps. Tell me Satan designed her beauty. Tell me Mary was just an incubator. Tell me in the beginning God didn’t know man would need to be redeemed, and He would use the womb of His creation to carry the Christ child born of a virgin. The womb was there all along; it was CREATED to hold the developing child so fearfully and wonderfully made.
Mary, a woman, carried the baby Jesus. She birthed Him, she nursed Him, wiped His tears, and held Him in her arms. Mary! A woman! So low she was only created for sex? Was she just a byproduct? My God knew all the while, He knew Mary from the beginning, He called her by name.
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Her womb carried my SAVIOR! Tell me God didn’t plan that, it was just happenstance. No!
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
I think of all the discrepancies in the message, things that I have tried to pass off as humanity. The nurse’s name, when Hope died, how his father died, three different birth dates, when was he commissioned? Was there a cloud? Was he standing under it? Did 16 men lose their lives on a bridge?
His stories changed every single time. I wanted to say they were not lies, he was bad with dates, he was mistaken. He was human, he made mistakes. Mistakes yes, telling untruths, exaggerations, misconceptions, or lies without correcting them? No.
“For we know, brothers loved by God, that he has chosen you, because our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction.” – 1 Thessalonians 1
Conviction. Conviction tells me when I have done something wrong. Conviction tells me I need to make it right.
Did God truly use him as a mouthpiece to my generation, to interpret the Word for me? Did God use his voice to tell me I was low, a byproduct made from scraps to do nothing but deceive?
God created the woman, and as a woman you were in His mind from the beginning. From the beginning God knew He would create man, man would fall, and man would need a Savior. From the beginning God knew you, you were in Him, and He loved you.
“….even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world” – Ephesians 1
He knows my name. He sent His only Son to die for all creation. He has a plan for my life. I am not separated from the rest of creation. Jesus loved me, He died for me too. When all of creation was redeemed and they cried out praise to the Lamb, woman was not separated from them. She cried out too.
“And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!” – Revelation 5
Jesus spoke to the woman at the well. She had 5 husbands and was yet living with another. He offered her living water. He did not condemn her, He didn’t judge her, He offered her living water! She went running, come and see a man, is this not the Messiah?
Mary Magdalene was possessed with devils. Jesus loved her. He healed her and she followed Him. How ironic, she was was the first to proclaim the Good News.
No, God can’t lie. God didn’t say those things. Neither would God’s mouthpiece.
Proverbs 6
There are six things that the LORD hates,
seven that are an abomination to him:
haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among brothers.
Every sin that ever was on the earth was caused by a woman.” 57-1006
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Satan is her designer. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Look, a woman is not even so low. She’s not even a creation in God. She’s a by-product. 56-0715
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
It was you was the one done it. You presented yourself that way, so you are the guilty one. And you, no matter how virtuous and pure you’ve lived, you’ll be guilty before God of committing adultery with a sinner, just the same as you’d went through the act. 56-1002
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
You see a woman with a lot of paint on her face, you know what you can call her? Say, “Hello, Miss dog meat.” That’s what she is, like dog meat. 52-0900
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
She is designed, alone, for filth and unclean living. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
There is nothing designed, in all creation, that can stoop as low as a woman can. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Why didn’t He make her like that in the beginning, like the rest of His females? Because it would be unbecoming to Him. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
But she is designed to be a sex act, and no other animal is designed like that. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Look, a woman is not even so low… She’s not even a creation in God. 56-0715
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
She’s a by-product. 56-0715
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
She wasn’t even considered in the original creation. 56-0715
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
When a woman gets out of the kitchen she’s out of her place. 56-0715
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
You’d never look at a woman going down the street and tell what’s in her heart. But I wanted to say these things so that you could see why that Satan is her designer. 65-0221
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
It started with the woman. It’ll end with a woman. 60-1113
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
Joseph, he said, “Daddy, is there such a thing as a witch?” I said, “Oh, sure.” He said, “Does she have a long nose, and she rides on a broom at nighttime?” I said, “No. She has a painted face and rides in a Cadillac to a–a cocktail party.” That’s the new modern version of it. And he said, “Is that a witch?” I don’t know whether I should’ve told him that or not, because every time on the street he sees one, he says, “Daddy, there’s a witch, isn’t it? 60-0301
“It is impossible for God to lie.”
“They’re not worth a good clean bullet to kill them with it.” That’s right. And I hated women. That’s right. 59-0419
“You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” – John 8
In the past, I have addressed some issues of concerns with some of the thoughts expressed by you. And some of the responses that demonstrated agreement with the extracted statements from the sermons which were taped “as he spoke” and then paraphrased into a readable format. Such issues as serpent seed, the seven church ages, the seven seals and the ministration of angels in his work. Like you I then try to put my thoughts into print, mainly the Web. If you permit, I would like to address some of the issues that pertains to your articles from time to time. I pray that God will reward you in your search for the truth. http://www.3curtains.com
You are always more than welcome to share. Blessings friend.
Thank you for writing this. I try to tell myself that it wasn’t that bad. Then I see it laid out like this and know that yes, it was. It is. It’s said nicer in some churches, but it is still said. I would like to share the link, if that’s okay.
Thank you so much for this post.
The quotations from Branham are so offensive to me that I would like message people to substitute a race or ethnic group for the word “woman'” and see how that works out for them. Disgusting and horrifying. Being raised as a woman in the ‘message’ is an incredibly damaging experience. What is wrong with a man who hates women so much? What is wrong with pastors who eagerly embrace this ideas and preach endless sermons about women’s appearances and dress? Why wouldn’t any decent Godly man read the above and think “well, this can’t be right, I know so many powerful women of God who are a blessing to the church and partake of the gifts of God just as much as we men”.
The amount of male attention received by me as I grew up in the ‘message’ (has her hair ever been cut? is her skirt long enough? Are those eyebrows natural or do I see evidence of tidying up with tweezers? Is she wearing pantihose even in the hottest of summer days, we can’t afford to catch a glimpse of bare leg) now looks to me frankly sexual in nature. Funny how so many pious message men are eagerly preoccupied by women and horrified by their sexuality. Grow up!
I have been involved with Branham issues for many years and have done a ton of research on the life and times of William Branham. I have a number of friends and acquaintances who were healed or received deliverance directly through the ministry of William Branham. Ministers who were with him on the platform have told me first hand of the incredible discernment and power that they saw first hand. One of my very closest friends and brother in Christ is emerging from what he calls “The Island” and his life was absolutely ravaged by being raised in a Message Church.
These quotations (which I was familiar with) by William Branham that are listed in this blog, either in context or out of context, are just indefensible and saddening. I wish I did not have to say it or admit it but this is not truth (easier for me to say than “lies”).
May God bless you in your journey and the Lord lead you and guide you into all truth as He is doing with my friend.
Rusty,
Hello. I’m afraid I’m new to the world of bloggers. That is a standard setting.
I’ve chosen to keep that setting as it enables me to keep offensive or inappropriate comments from coming through.
You may also find me on Facebook, “uncensored”. 🙂
God Bless you!
I am disappointed that you censor your replies. You are falling into “confirmation bias”, not spiritually healthy!
That was a lot of work putting that all together! It all makes perfect sense. The man was a liar! I’m shocked there aren’t more comments! Well done!
Amen. God does not oppress women. God uplifts while Satan casts down. God loves while Satan scorns.
