The Sarah Branham Investigation

The Sarah Branham Investigation

Sarah Branham sent a letter pleading for help.  She entitled it, "Take it With You", and addressed it "To the Bride of Christ, the followers of the 'Message'".  Sarah, her husband, and their eight children are in a desperate situation due to financial struggles after working as missionaries in Guatemala and spreading the "Message" of William Branham deep into South America.  In the letter, Sarah described the hardships that she faced after being allegedly taken advantage of by cult leaders back in the United States.  At the same time, it appears that "Message" cult leaders were attempting to silence Sarah by praying that Satan would destroy Sarah's flesh.

Sarah's cry for help was answered, and "Message" cult members begin to organize a plan to come to her aid.  Their obstacle?  Many in the cult seemed to fear Spoken Word Publications, the organization led by members of her own family, the direct descendants of William Branham himself.
