Christian Post Investigates Branham's Fraudulent Revival History
Dusty May Taylor investigates the fraudulent revival history of William Branham and those associated with him, including Paul Cain of the Kansas City Prophets. Taylor suggests that within the Pentecostal and Charismatic Christian movements, more individuals should be critically thinking about and questioning the veracity of the information presented through series like "God's Generals."

The facts uncovered by John Collins in his William Branham historical research project, now spanning centuries of connections between various church movements, are shocking and of great significance. His insights into revivalists such as John Alexander Dowie, William Branham, and John G Lake contradict accounts contained in the beloved revival history series, "God's Generals." For instance, new evidence suggests Branham grew up brewing and running liquor with his father for the Chicago mob. His famous halo picture is allegedly debunked. Research also suggests that his prophetic words were frequently revised and frequently inaccurate. He spent time in spiritualist camps where cold reading and other forms of deception were practiced, and his ministry used a system of numbered prayer cards to "call out" words of knowledge. Extensive ties to political movements have been found. I encourage healthy skepticism of Collins' claims (a fascinating video can be found here) — his research site includes extensive footnotes, references, and photos of newspapers and public records, with which one can come to their own conclusions.[1]
