Ern Baxter on William Branham, Word and Spirit

This video clip is taken from a series entitled "Life on Wings" conducted shortly before Ern Baxter's death. Ern was asked about his friendship with William Branham and went on to speak about the present need for a tension between doctrine and experience - the Word of God and the Holy Spirit.

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.

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.

You are wrong about Brother Branham.

@Believer1996 You are so wrong.

[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

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.

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.

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!
