The Message Part 32: William Branham and the Birth of the"Message"

Views 306

This episode examines the transition of the "Latter Rain Revival" to the "Latter Rain Message", the separation it caused among Pentecostals, and the formation of William Branham's "Message" cult following. It also examines the multi-faceted public relations campaign, from Roy E. Davis through Voice of Healing, William D. Upshaw through "healing" and testimony in Paul Kopp's church, the publicity caused from the "divine healing" debate and "halo" photo, and the reverends Kopp promoting William Branham in video marketing. Last, it examines the emergence of all of these campaigns from "coincidental" meetings in San Bernardino California by Davis, Upshaw, Galloway, and Kopp, and the Federal trial that resulted from the birth of the "Americanization" project.
