I'm happy to see you are a Christian. After I left the message I was an atheist/agnostic for quite a few years. It wasn't until my daughter was in middle school that I surrendered my life to Jesus. Reading the Bible for myself has helped me. I have family members that seem to want nothing to do with God after getting out of the cult.

Wow!!!! Thank you so much for making this series!!! I also grew up in the message from age 1 - 32 and I can honestly say you literally spoke 100% truth!!! I've been out 7 years and I'm still trying to break free from the trauma that The Message (cult) caused. I wish I could share my story , I've also thought of writing a memoir.... maybe one day. Thank you again for telling the truth about what the message really is , especially from a woman's point of view, you have no idea how happy I am to have found your channel!

@@CRWottrich you can go ahead ignore me as much as you like,spread your lies about being in a message church and turn people from the truth .....God will reward you for all your deeds. If the message church was like you have said and l have been in the church for 21 years, how is it that l just have not found it to be as you have reported??? After being molested by my own father at the age of 4 years old,(my father wasn't in the, message,by the way)bullied and hit by him,don't you think that l know what abuse is. Why would l defend it??? It was only coming into the message and the teaching of William branham that l found the strength to overcome my hatred of my father. I live in England UK and go to a London church. In this church l learnt how to live and relate to God more,NOT William Branham . He was only the messenger, not the message 🙄. The message is actually the word of God and not the word of William Branham??? I could NEVER REJECT God's word!! I feel sad and sorry that you are hurting from perhaps being in a church that you claim to have treating you in an abusive way. If called it called itself a message church and treated you how you said,l am very sorry for your experiences. But if you look at the life and character of Branham, he had such a commission by God and he was clearly used by God !!!p If you persist in your what you sayè9 What more can l say, 55 21

Hi Charity, you probably won't remember me but we've met before! I used to be in the uk branch and you visited my family with who I think was your cousin maybe 10years ago just before a convention (i was a teenager at the time). I left the church about 5 years ago now and I'm an athiest at this point in time. I found your channel by chance and it's comforting hearing your story and knowing that I wasn't alone in my experiences. I'm happy for you that things have turned out well and although I don't understand it, I'm glad you've found your path in a religion that is right for you. Wishing you every happiness!

Im a baby Christian and looking into all of this but I do go to a message church here as they allign a lot with what I believe and there are mostly catholic churches here and thats not for me. And I havent noticed this either. The tapes is something secondary to the preaching, and often not played each service. The preacher also said that even Branham told his son when he already had 3 kids that its good to have kids but maybe it as enough because its not just his burden to make all the kids :P Basicallly meaning that you dont have to make huge families. I did get baptised there and tbh I had a no sleeve shirt on XD No one said anything. The kids there all seem to go to regular schools as they mentione dvarious times how hard it must be for them to be in those regular schools surrounded by tons of sinful behavior and such, at young impressionable ages. And I agree... depending on the school ofcourse, it can corrupt a lot as the schools are very worldly. At least here in Belgium. I do see some with very long hair as if they never cut it. For me I will cut my hair. I keep it long but when I notice it statrs splitting and breaking I try to keep it healthy and cut some of the ends. THe point is for hair to be a veil but that doesnt mean it needs to reach the floor XD

Yes, I agree. Kids should know that adults (including authority figures) can make mistakes. They should be familiar with their parents and other adults saying “I’m sorry” when they’ve accidentally broken a promise or made a mistake. It is one thing to teach kids to respect their elders, another thing to teach them to unconditionally obey and unconditionally respect them.

I may be wrong or you maybe wrong but if you recieve a conviction from Jesus himself not even an angel from God will change it. What if at the end of your life you realized that this message was true what are you gonna do? Seek God for yourself and don't lay on your own understanding or on somoene else saying.

Everything must be proven by scripture,every one has a right to believe what we believe,but to label anything without a true base or foundation,we are free model agency,I don't believe believing in God's truth is a cult,but in the message we are taught we are to have our own personal experience with God and brother Branham says you need to have a individual experience and that God's deals with the individual and the message is not a group affair,so I understand if you never experience your own personal experience,perhaps you were just going because of your parents,brother Branham also said you don't join the church because you shaked some one hands or put your name on the book but you are baptized in the body by one spirit,and the spirit will guide you into all truth,also only the predestinated will receive the light,the truth of the matter is in the typology of the early followers of Jesus christ you had Judas characters,Peter who denied him three times and Didymus who doubted the resurrection

Good evening dear one; I have commented before appealing to you about what real "cultism " entails, and thus what a "cult " really is,and as sincere as you really seem to be,you're still confusing those caught up in particular practices, that truly believe in the Lord Jesus wholeheartedly,,that sometimes tend to going to extremes about what started to be true, pure practicing of faith,and sound doctrine, to going on into excesses, and wanting others to follow them, out of being overzealous, and such! While this kind of thing can cause trouble, and even bring unwarranted fears to less rooted, and mature Christians ( which no doubt isn't healthy) this isn't necessarily "cultic ", nor a "cult ", but rather something gone awry, in extremes, and needs sound, scriptural correction,in love, and caring leaders to help bring things back to order,and Biblical, sensible fellowship, and godly practices in Christ our Lord. A simple, but brief definition of what's truly " "cultic " leans far more away from sound doctrine, unscriptural misuse of certain teaching, and practices, that though pieces of certain truths is scattered here, and there, there's no real bedrock foundational basis for the listeners to stand on clearly set down by the Lord Jesus, and His Apostles in the Bible, clearly revealed, and openly known in the Word of God: as such William Branham was not a cultist,nor false teacher,because whatever he preached, and openly expressed ( and yes he was as human as ,any other human) wasn't unsound, nor anti-Christ, if anything the expression of God anointed power Biblically, was more at work in his time than today, where there an over abundance ( certainly there's no problem with the need for sound teaching, but is that all ,aline by itself)of teaching, and preaching doctrine, with little power; did not the Apostle Paul say when he came to Corinth he came not in Word alone, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power? I do concur with you,and empathize with you that some of God's children have become fanatical, and domineering, and that is tragic, and unacceptable, but did not Paul have to come in several instances, such as in Galatia,and Corinth, and Thessalonica, and have to correct serious faulty issues to restore order among God's people? And what of our Lord's stern warning to Thyatira about dealing with the Nicolatians,about there abuse of trying to dominate the churches under their overbearing rule; nevertheless the term ( and again I believe your desire and intention is good, and in some ways can help other, but beware of extremes yourself, trying to help others out of what you have been through) but "cultism ",in itself wasn't mentioned as the main point, rather correcting the matters at hand,repenting as such ,and turning back to the Lord, and His true ways, and will, amen! Leaving this with you ,trusting your heart is open to the Lord to hear,and honor good helpful advice in service to the Lord dear sister. Remember ( I say in godly love) some could say,according to God's instructions in His Word,that you're being young,an by yourself, not surrounded by other mature oversight, is questionable, not because you're not sincere, but out of the need to be cautious in staying in godly ,scriptural order, amen? This is all said in genuine love, with one preeminent desire: God's glory! Blessings in JESUS worthy name, according to all that glorifies our FATHER in heaven!

I grew up in a church that was definitely cultish. We weren’t told how to dress with the exception of modesty but there was so much spiritual manipulation going on. One man in charge who had no theological training. The church had ‘mission teams’ all over the world. It really messes with your heart and mind and I hated God for a long time. I eventually came to realize that God had NOTHING to do with this church. I too have found Christ as my savior and have true freedom.

The problem is this young people want to live like the rest of the (youth) dress like, cut hair, commit fornication and abortion and yet the bible condemns it ... its not the message of William Branham it's Gods message through a men. God always sends a prophet before an event takes place he did it in time of Noah, Even when Jesus came he was also rejected so its just repeating it self. What you doing is satisfying yourself you wanna live according to the flesh.

Branham denied the eternal sonship of Jesus "based on the logic" (said same person who also taught that people should believe with heart, not with mind), while the Bible makes it very clear that the only begotten Son of God is as much as eternal as God the Father. If Branham did not get even this right, I have no reason to trust in him.

You are mistaken. That would not be telling the truth for me. Watch my 4th video if you want to see some of the actual reasons I left. I did not mind following all the rules, i actually liked being different and feeling special with those rules. I liked the future I thought I had for myself in Branhamism. At the time, leaving was the hardest thing I ever did. I left because of evidence against it, not because of rules. When I left I had to make all new friends and deal with my old friends shunning me, I had to give up the hopes of future I thought I had… it was very difficult.

I think you need to tell how your family believes. A lot of the followers they believe in polygamy. And they try to make brother Branham say different things it's not true. But but I have challenged the world over to prove to me where he's wrong. And it still stands. But you need to get back to holiness. Instead of going out into the world. Because judgment is going to come to your door then I'll say I told you so. So you must be careful what you say about William Branham. He's God's true prophet.

@@hannahwasioya5437 I pray that I answer this question, the way that you have presented. The best of my knowledge. I believe the woman came against the prophet. Like the woman came by brother branham's Church and said I wouldn't give my cow. The way he believed it. And she went to the hospital and died. I think it was in the same day. And if you noticed he talked highly of women. That stayed in their place. The devil has chosen a woman to work through faster, because she is a weaker vessel. But his prophecies if you look closer to what he said many are already come to pass. And if you noticed he had to tell you exactly the truth. Because it was God behind the vessel. Just like any of the other prophets. We must not change anything that prophets said. Or change the Bible. Brother Branham said , if you don't understand it, just lay it on the shelf come back to it later. Many of the message people. They are changing what brother Branham says. And I have had a battle with that myself. I only want to see what he says. Then I can't go wrong. In the Bible is the same way. I hope this is answered most your questions and may God bless you .

William Branham taught that the Trinity is of the Devil, and now I will give you Bible verses to study. John 8 v 17-18 17. It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. 18. I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. Clearly Jesus is saying that the Father is one witness and Jesus is a second witness. The only way this is possible is the one God the Trinity. --------- John 17 v 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou ME with THINE OWN SELF with the glory which I had WITH THEE before the world was. How can Jesus be with the Father if Jesus is the Father? The Trinity is the only way both are still God. ------- John 17 v 21 That they all may be one; as THoU, Father, art in ME, and I in THEE, that they also may be one in US: that the world may believe that THOU hast sent ME. Who is the US in this verse? Jesus and the Father, two persons of the one God the Trinity. --------- William Branham taught that Cain’s biological father was the serpent. Genesis 4 v 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. Where in this verse do you add that the serpent is Cain’s father? This verse is clear who the father is. -------- Acts 17 v 26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation. Does the Bible say two bloods created all nations of men? The serpent’s and Adam’s? No the Bible is clear that one blood created all nations of men, and it is Adam’s blood. -------- When your prophet contradicts the word of God your prophet is false. Deuteronomy 13 v 1-5 Matthew 24 v 23-24 Run from this false teacher!!!

@@Marie-cy5pk 1. Cor. 11:13-16 is literally just about the fact long hair is glory to a woman, and for this reason she should not pray without covering her hair. If she prayed without covering, she would *shave* her head as well. And as Paul implies, it was shameful for woman to be uncovered (and thus shaved) in Jewish and Roman cultures, there were not such a custom that women were uncovered (except in Pagan ceremonies). Deducting from this particular passage and noticing the Torah, in other words, cutting hairs is allowed for women - as long as they maintain their feminine appearance. Not all women are nazirites (unlike Branham seemed to think).

God could have decided to reveal His will in any possible form, and He chose to tell us *a story.* The true story, His story. Facts appeal our reason and are necessary, but through stories the whole human can be touched. Josif Stalin said something like "one man's death is a tragedy, the death of a million men mere numbers", and that's surprisingly true. Knowledge and experience walk hand in hand.
