William Branham's Durban Claims Overturned in 1956

Confirming the claims of Alfred Pohl, the family of Donny Morton, and others, Waymon Doyne Miller testified that William Branham's healing claims were not accurate. Miller attended William Branham's meetings in Johannesburg, South Africa, and after witnessing several people claim to be healed, Miller decided to investigate further.

According to Miller, investigating Branham's claims was difficult. Very little data was released to the public.[1] Miller collaborated with other ministers who attended Branham's meetings, however, and one minister very close to the platform knew some of the "healed" personally.[2] This minister sent a letter describing the deceitful tactics and false claims in the Branham meetings, which Miller published in his 1956 book "Modern Divine Healing".

And so it continues right through forty-six cases. I have not made any check lately, i.e., within the last two months, but the evidence before me is such that I can come to no other conclusion that the cures claimed are so largely exaggerated as to be almost fraudulent in their claim.
