"The Token Message"
William Marrion Branham
(1909-1965)
The Message that Brother Branham brought to
his generation cannot be explained as just another ministry, but has far-reaching
implications. Many believe that his ministry signified a turning point for
the church at large if they will only hear.
Malachi in the bible speaks of Elijah the Prophet
returning to the church to restore all things, just before the great and
dreadful day of the Lord.(Mal 4:5-6) William Branham’s ministry restored
many truths that would have otherwise have been overlooked by the church systems
in their quest for bigger and better organizations.
The teachings that he brought were simple and
yet profound, and it does not take long for the hearer to realize that
this was a man who has heard from God and one who was faithful to his commission
as a trusted servant of his Lord.
What Happened that day on Calvary?
Listen to Brother Branham as he unlocks the mystery of the Life
that was in the Blood of Jesus Christ and the Power that God can impart
to those who believe.
‘The Token’ Message of which Brother Branham
said was the most inspired sermon he ever preached apart from ‘The Seven
Seals’ - is yet another tape that leaves us in awe when we consider that
the Power of God is with us even today working in us and through us.
Brother Branham calls upon the Holy Ghost
to vindicate the words that he has spoken in Name of the Lord, and they
are more than confirmed by the demonstration of the Spirit and the Gift of
Discernment of spirits. This message has driven believers to prayer and sinners
to repentance and has to be deemed as a Classic of modern Christian archives.
Listen as Brother Branham encourages the Church to strive for Holiness without
which no man can see the Lord.
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall
see the Lord: Heb 12:14 (KJV)

"THE TOKEN" DALLAS.TX V-19 N-12 64-0308
...Now, over
in the Book of Exodus the 12th chapter, beginning with the 12th verse, I
wish to read a portion of Scripture: 12th and 13th verse.
For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and
will smite... the firstborn in the land of--of Egypt, both man and beast;
and... will execute judgment: I am the LORD. And the blood shall be
unto You for a TOKEN upon the house where you are; and when I see the blood,
I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you,
when I smite the land of Egypt. My subject is "The Token." 1
The Prophet
speaks out openly against worldliness and liberal minded Christianity that
is prevalent to this Laodicean church age. "Surely this was a man upon whom
rested the Spirit of Elijah. God has raised up many fine ministries in
our generation, but who can compare with this man’s ministry; a ministry
that I wish to share with you today".
The outstanding feature of his ministry was the commission that was
given him in 1933 by the Angel of the Lord.
"As John the Baptist forerun the first coming of Christ his ministry
was to forerun the Second Coming."3
Photograph taken just before the Angle of the Lord appeared,
1933at the Ohio River, giving William Branham his commission.
… He said, "when I baptized right down here on the Ohio River, many of
you was standing there, twenty-three years ago, right on the Ohio River that
Light, Angel, come right down to where we was at, and said, "As John the
Baptist was sent for a forerunner of the first coming of Jesus Christ, your
Message will bring the second coming of Jesus Christ." And it's done it."
