Ern Baxter on William Branham, Word and Spirit

[Standingwithfeast]

The Lord raised up a prophet to rebuke the Laodicean generation of vipers as in the day of the book of Malachi did. And we see all these organized religious priets attacking one man because this little man Brother Branham's life, words,and works are such a threat against the establishments. History repeats itself. A man completely in submission to the Lord Jesus Christ is the majority,& his words still turn born again apostolic Christians everywhere on fire for the Lord Jesus Christ in holiness.

[blutobelushi]

You are wrong about Brother Branham.

[Believer1996]

“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves....Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ Matthew 7

[blutobelushi]

@Believer1996  You are so wrong.

[messagebeliever]

Ern who? I hope Jesus doesn't say the same thing on That Day.

[Denvermorgan2000]

How could Ern sit and say that after seeing God Vindicate what Brother Branham

said to be the truth there is nothing strange about the truth and thats exactly

what Brother Branham had i think its Ern that got short changed

because what brother Branham had was not some strange doctrine

but it was the word of God for our day.

[charmedangels4]

Im non denominational, as dissullsioned in the modern day church of today, they fight amongst themselves rather come together in pray&seek the truth.Is it no wonder the world getting worse as the church has divided that many times, they dnt agree, they seperate and create another church. William Branham did have something there in his teaching, but Im a great believer that one shouldnt try to delve and work it out themselves only through revelation.

[amasonga]

I fully believe that William Branham was a man of God. Although many people claim not to understand his speech, I perfectly do. Although English is by no means my first language, I have no problem understanding him! The way, he taught the word with such simplicity but so much depth in it. One of my friends who read the Bible in Greek, says that the message lines exactly with the Bible in Greek! The presence of the Holy Spirit, so pure and such love!

[philipthe1st]

@thirdexodus2008 Amen Bri. In Jesus Christ Name. Amen.

[Emilhio]

Yo lamento no entender bien el inglés pero, si ustedes me lo permiten, yo quisiera decir que doy gracias a Dios por enviarnos un profeta con las características del hermano Branham quien, ciertamente, manifestó la vida de Jesucristo para nuestra generación, próximos al rapto de la Iglesia. Dios sea con todos ustedes, en Cristo.

[cjs8207]

Ern Baxter was not merely someone who knew William Branham, but someone who was his spokesman in later years. There is no doubt that this formerly great evangelist through whom God used greatly in the late 40's and early 50's nevertheless, prior to his death engaged in very bizarre behaviors, including his claim to actually "be" Elijah the prophet. Perhaps it was God's mercy that cut his life short before he undid virtually all the good he had done.

[sidebarr7]

@cjs8207 I have never personally read anywhere B.B said he was the last day Elijah. I know alot of others have said that,But where did he say that?I would like to read it if anyone knows where its at.

[zeek827]

@sidebarr7 Hey there No I dont recall reading that either. His followers believe that because of course we believe he was the voice of rev 10 v7  It would be just like God to have Elijah come and go again just like he did in John the Baptist who was the first forunner of Christ.

[Zakhaev73]

Amen! Put Spirit and Word together becomes Sword!

[davidkeithbecket]

powerful stuff

[sidebarr7]

I wish the people against B,branham would make it plain what they agree with and what they dont agree with in Doctrine with Bro.Branham! I hear alot of ,,he was off on docrine,,,,,,What doctrine? Serpent seed? trinism? What?

[barkingseapig]

@sidebarr7 the Branhamites are punks who cant handle it when someone disagrees with them and they wont allow any comments except the ones that co-sign their B.S., so anyone who differs with them is censored or they just str8 up dont allow comments because they are sheeple. I dont endorse or oppose Branham, but his followers are the most messed up cult in the world,history has proven a lot of his so called prophecies and Theology to be wrong,they must not be cognizant of the times we are living

[sidebarr7]

@barkingseapig I understand that,a women blocked me just because I didnt agree with her on pre-trib rapture.Why are pre-trib folk always worried about the mark og the beast and being persecuted ,,,,,,If they aint going to be here for it??? Duh

[zeek827]

@barkingseapig Ohhhh bad guy nice screen name fits ya well .Are you the barking dog thats returned to its vomit or a pig that will never be a sheep so get over it and leave us Branimites alone unless you have some real evidence against God's Prophet. Oh by the way what have you done for God lately

[barkingseapig]

@zeek827 see sidebar,I rest my case.Real evidence? lets see, 1977(never happened inspite of his"Divine Inspiration),Marilyn Monroe(died of acute barbiturate poisoning not a heart attack),billy paul wont be an old man before the earthquake sinks cal(BPB is an old man). 3rd pull tent vision(3 yrs after this one he died in a car crash),FDR(WWII didnt happen that way), all of these so called visions have failed and history its self proves it, so the evidence is self-evident.no room to answer Lst que

[zeek827]

@barkingseapig There has always been a difference between a prediction and when WMB said thus saith the Lord at which he was 100% dead on. Whos your Rev 10 v7 or is that scripture to be fulfilled in the future...??

[barkingseapig]

@zeek827 Had he said This is a prediction not a prophecy-period I would agree with you, but he said it was based on "Divine Inspiration",a prediction based on DI is by definition a prophecy, but I will concede to that point because there is no clear cut way to define each, so we will have to agree to disagree. Rev 10 v7 It is neither the historical view(Martin Luther) nor will it be in the future. the answer is @ the beginning of that book, This is the Rev. of JC...nothing in there is future

[zeek827]

@barkingseapig so when Jesus said to John seal up those things and write them not...How are we to know what was in there other than a spoken word ministry in the end time as brought on by someone God always used in the past and thats a Prophet. Whens the calling out going to happen the seperation of the wheat from the tares..School me I'm open ....nice post

[barkingseapig]

@zeek827 Im not into schooling anyone, however if you would care to have a civil discourse about it via email Im open. It is impossible to have such a dialog when we are only given 500 characters in which to type, we would after all have to get into Dan 70 weeks end times last days etc, in short we would be spamming the crap out of the up-loader and everyone else. My orig post was merely to answer sidebars question, but Im Amillennial and see Rev as Parenthetical so it would depend on when you..

[jampitts]

@barkingseapig Look up divine and look up inspired, you're having a little trouble with the meaning of words.Elijah was divinely inspired all of the time was he not? Sure he was. He condemned children and God honored it because of his words. Now by the same token he states I am the only one left, in other words poor pitiful me , God says hey goofball there are 7000. I guess that prophet was in error and we can no longer believe him? The prophet explained way more than once 77 was his thoughts.

[barkingseapig]

@jampitts I already addressed all of this both here in the comments and in one of my videos, but thanks for sharing. Kind regards

[thirdexodus2008]

The word and the spirit came together in the ministry of William marrion Branham.There were no strange doctrine in the prophets ministry.The problem is that the denominational pentecostal world and the older churches refused to accept their lack of understanding of the word.They refuse to accept that they have been wrong over the years in teaching trinitarian God and false baptism and all sorts of wrong messages.Bro Branham had the right word.Why not believe him?

[ShaDeSlayerStone]

Amen!! Praise The Lord!

[sidebarr7]

@thirdexodus2008 Yes he definately was not for the wishy-washy beleivers of today,Just the remenant, I have been barred from differant folks on here because I disagreeed ,,in a nice way! It is so easy to hide behide the pc screen and vent and insult another person than say your a beleiver.Not a good place for serious conversation.

[sidebarr7]

@thirdexodus2008 Yes they never change there mind on there doctrines,they just openly disobey there own doctrine, like women preachers, Iv seen there doctrine and they just put them up anyway,,over there husbands too.

[zeek827]

and you acomplished what again for Christianity there EB... Pride my man comes before what?????

[a63z1k24j]

Following your own opinions is wasting time.Following the Word from a vindicated prophet isn't.

[AFWHHHH]

religios studies are simply a waste of your time, no need to sit under anyone whether branham or baxter. read the bible for yourself and test the scriptures to be true. grow up. and this coming from one who sat under baxter in the 70's

[ibenditlikebeckham]

William Branham had the Word and the Spirit. I feel sorry for Ern Baxter, because he thought he knew the Bible, and had the chance to sit at the feet of one of the greatest prophets in history.

[zeek827]

@ibenditlikebeckham  Perfect post

[zeek827]

wow I just listened to the video to the end and gave it my full attention instead of reading posts while listening to the video. Yeah those full gospel businessmen supported this Branham fella back then until some word started coming forth that contradicted all the carismatics and they pulled the plug. I think Brother Branhams ministry was a restoration of the word ministry which brought forth that 2 eged sword most people couldn't swallow...no pun intended

[sidebarr7]

@zeek827 They left disasociated themselves from B.Branham because they wanted to join up with the ecumenicle council of churces ,and B.B told them it would lead to the mark of the beast,A Union of one world churches.

@sidebarr7 did WMB hit a home run or what...

[NeartotheHeartofGod]

Mathew 5

37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. God Bless..

[sidebarr7]

@NeartotheHeartofGod that is true anything more on ones opinion seems to get argued,No matter what proof or scripture,,,Devil is always around to cause a debate.

[schmetterling107]

i m p o r t a n t d e c i s i o n

well, its a pitty that people don`t recognize, that every ministry with signts and wonders has got a message that comes forth after them.

In the days of Jesus they all believed that His signs and wonders were overnatural. But when He brought forth the message He was rejected. What will we choose?????????

[charismaticdan]

Yes I think Ern was trying to say that Branham had some strange views of Scripture that I think are well-known. What he meant by "his calling and his light" was that Ern NEVER denied Branham's extraordinary gifting and anointing in faith for the healing of the sick. That was what God called him to do - and God used him powerfully to do that. Ern never ever denied that, even though many so-called orthodox Christians tried to disqualify Branham because of some of his teaching and doctrine.

@charismaticdan The denominations didnt like him because he said that denomination is of the devil and the trinity was of the devil,most of em were trinitarians.

[zeek827]

@charismaticdan If you are referring to the Serpent seed doctrine as being strange well yeah it is but it fits so neatly in the plan of God in Genesis where God says to the serpent (who was not a snake at that time) and Eve " I will put enmity between thy seed (the serpents seed) and her seed (Eve's seed) giving us a hint as to where that seed came from in Mary. Branham was the real deal back then and now "the message is even bigger" because it's unfolding for this generation

[sidebarr7]

@zeek827 Yes and emity means war and isnt that war going on all the time, on every issue.

[zeek827]

@sidebarr7 yeah notice Adams seed is never mentioned in the so called sentencing of the crime. Poor Adam has to listen to that alarm clock every day and WORK... Huh and something else thats strange in that whole seniero does it not say that Eve was the one decieved but it never says Adam was decieved but it says he merely disobeyed the commandment. But didn't they both commit the same crime?????????????????????????­??????

[sidebarr7]

@zeek827 good point, i wish beleivers would actually read the bible,1tim 2;9-15,,note;14 is the reason they are not permitted to teach or handle the word of God over a man,It gos back to WHO was deceived,Adam was not deceived but left the garden because he loved Eve,and yes he knew Eve and that was the sin,First the Serpent had her and then Adam,thus the twins .

[leastEsteemed]

That same spirit was in the pharisees in Jesus day. Because they said " we know thou art a man sent from God because no man can do these things that you do unless God is with him". Then they turned right around and denied Christ teaching, eventually hating Him enough to crucify Him". So mr. baxter had this same spirit of denial. You can not argue with God. He was attracted to the gift but clung to his own theology, just as nicodemus did.

[cdoc77]

I would agree 100% with Baxter. I too think Branham's teachings were off. He was a prophet no doubt, but he was not a teacher. You cannot argue with the great manifestations of the Spirit in his ministry, but neither can you say that those miracles validated everything the man said. I don't compare myself with Branham, but I have some experience in the gifts of the Spirit. (They are given for every man to profit withal.) But that doesn't mean that I have always been right about everything.

[chazyt]

how can you say someone is a prophet and disagree with the teachings he has. If the teachings are wrong they wouldn't come from God would they. and when he was preaching he did say "if what i've said is the truth let God come and honour it", theeeen the miracles would take place. how can u say the miracles didnt validate what he said???

[zeek827]

I agree with chazyt a few posts ago. What paticular "teachings" do you disagree with. I do agree with you last line there yeah "the gifts and callings are without repentance"other wise the folks that say But Lord didn't we cast out demons in thy name etc...wouldn't fit.Yeah I believe you can be ordained of God and bust hell wide open.We didn't just see miracles in Branhams ministry.He had something to say to the church also. Imulated the apostle Paul pretty good with some more light allowed

[sidebarr7]

@zeek827 Just a tought,,,didnt Jesus say to peter that his church would be based on the rock of revelation,,operateing off revelation as Gods Spirit gives it ,thus the gifts,and were we not told by paul to covent the gift of prophesy,Why ? God talking to his subjects through his subjects,No one greater than the other,all on equal ground as they grow with the watering of the word? Man has made this complicated and impossiple.

[sidebarr7]

@cdoc77 Good point,His followers want to say every word he breathed was bible.Even elijah had his bad days,running from jezebal instead of standing his ground,Which he eventually did.

[sidebarr7]

@cdoc77 That is very true,but what I dont understand is,why is no one speaking out against the Faith movement that teaches prosperity and tells folks there saved by how much thay give,doctrines of devils is what its called,B.B has been gone for over 42 years and everyone is beating a dead horse,,so to speak while others that are alive and doing damage to folk ,,,,nothing is said??

[zeek827]

@sidebarr7 Ya know Brother Branham did his thing was vindicated in the message he brought. Yes he was against women preachers cutting of the hair bla bla bla.. but when a woman came to him and said "God has called me to preach" he said well then go preach..He never argued about the word of God which if he was alive today he would be very disappointed of this youtube bickering you can bet on that. All you can do is soak in the truth brought by this man and chill out

[psalm4t6]

So sad because Ern was one of Bro. Branham's supporters and friends in the ministry. But what he says at the end with blending doctrine and the movement of the spirit is exactly what Bro. Branham spoke of!

[sidebarr7]

And what did erny ever walk in??

[sidebarr7]

Exactly what is he trying to say??strange views of scriptures?? Where is his calling and his light?
