2. He said the behaviour of an immoral woman is worse than a dog’s because the woman has a choice and a sacred responsibility to remain chaste for her husband (2 Cor 11:2).

3. He said polygamy was legal in the OT, but is not legal in the NT.

4. He said the only reason a man could remarry was for fornication (which he defined as "undisclosed premarital sex"). Mat 5:32

5. He said a man can put away his wife, but not remarry, for other reasons, including adultery.

THINGS.THAT.ARE.TO.BE (65-1205)
125 I think a real, genuine sister, there's nothing any nicer. If God could give a man anything better than salvation, He'd give him a wife. See? And so, then, if He could give anything better, He would have done it. And then to see some of them turn and don't even act like a wife, unloyal to their marriage vows, and their husbands the same. Remember, you're bound as long as you live, to one another. "What God joins on earth, joined in Heaven also."


INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE (65-1125)
13-6 She must not defile that virtue. If she even does something wrong, she must confess that to her husband before he takes her; and make it right. Just the same as the church that was married to the law has to come also before Christ, before the second marriage; she has to confess that. If she doesn't and she lives with her husband for ten years and then confesses it, he has a right to put her away and marry another woman. That's the Scripture. Fornication is unclean living.
I don't know if you are just mistaken or being dishonest. He did NOT say polygamy was just for the OT if so where?????
How could Satan be woman's designer?
If God charged the woman with the fall why in scripture referring back to it the MAN not the woman is is listed in every passage besides 1Tim.2:13?
You have to know some prominent followers practiced polygamy? Couldn't marry but had a sweetheart on the side?
Branham's definition of fornication including a woman cutting her hair.

From my experience the vast majority do not go into extremes of behaviour or belief. The Voice of God Recordings website, which is managed by Branham's two sons (Joseph and Billy Paul), represent the majority who are plain simple Christians.

The serpent seed doctrine is not really so unusual when you consider that a number of Bible teachers interpret the "sons of God" in Genesis 6:2 as heavenly angels cohabiting with human women to produce offspring who were giants.

Because of intermarriage, 'serpent seed' today is a spiritual condition not a physical lineage. All flesh has been corrupted by sin. I have never heard a preacher who follows William Branham say that all who do not believe his Message are 'serpent seed'. William Branham said there are genuine Christians in every denomination.

Perhaps because I live in Australia I do not come across the extremes that arise on the American scene. Fortunately here we are mostly limited to reading and hearing what William Branham himself actually said.
Again I do not know whether you are uninformed or dishonest the man FS that sold the tapes for years was baptized in the name of William Branham and had a mediallion I saw myself William Branham is my Messiah. He thought the 'new name' was William Marrion Branham. Branham NEVER fired him.
Those teaching the Sons of God were angels are also in error. However Branham taught the offspring of the Serpent and Eve were children of the Devil that could not be saved they were presdestined for Hell.
Sir you being in Australia answers the question. You have no idea the absurd ideas taught by this bunch. By the way so you will know I know the family personally. I grew up with Joseph's wife.

Thad they do not believe he was Elijah reincarnated but Elijah just the same. He taught 5 appearings of Elijah and he was the fifth.
Kenod Luther & Wesley neither preached the doctrine of the Apostles. Neither were saved. Branham was confused concerning salvation.
