Right after Brother Branham's burial, on the evening of the same day, the Spirit of God suddenly repeated perceptible in my heart, “Now your time to give out the food has come.“ The next day I asked several brethren to be called together, as I had something to say. There I asked that the sermons which were on tapes should be printed, as we would need them for translation purposes. So the work commenced, or better to say, continued without interruption. It is noteworthy to realise that Brother Branham never said that the food would be distributed from Jeffersonville or from Tucson. Rev. Pearry Green made the following statement years ago in my house, “Brother Frank, you can point to a day when the Lord called you. I cannot do that and no other brother can.“ He started to wipe his tears and put his arms around me.

At that time I was not aware of the significance of the word in Amos 8:11, that God would sent a famine into the land to hear His Word. And had no knowledge as to the application of the mentioned scripture in Mt. 24. I also did not understand why Joseph had to suffer so much from his own brethren, why he was betrayed, cast out, denied and sold, put in prison etc. In the time of famine he kept those alive who had done all this harm to him. The twofold commission which I received – firstly, to preach the Word; secondly, to distribute the food – I have accomplished to the best of my knowledge and conscience.

Parallel to the world-wide proclamation of the Word I am in charge for the publication of Brother Branham's sermons into many different languages. The sole basis for my preaching is God's Word, the Bible, and for my publications, too. I also left all sermons of Brother Branham as they are. I did not take certain utterances out of connection to make doctrines thereof. In all the years I clearly differentiated between the infallible prophetic ministry as the “sign of the Messiah“ and what it means when Brother Branham said something of himself, as also Paul did. The apostle for instance writes, “And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord…“ and continues, “But to the rest speak I, not the Lord…“ (1Cor. 7:10-12)

In chapter 14 one senses the whole divine weight the apostle places upon his inspired exposition. He gives the challenge that even those who think to be prophets or spiritual “acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.“ (v. 37)

In 1 Tim. 2 the apostle states the will of God to be that all men should be saved and should come unto the knowledge of the Truth. Then he continues to say, “I will, therefore, that men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.“ Most certainly what Paul declared to be his will was in the will of God.

In 1 Tim. 1:12 the apostle testifies, “I thank Christ Jesus, our Lord, who hath enabled me, in that he counted me faithful, putting me in to the ministry.”

The original text reads “into his ministry“, as also does the German translation. Paul did not only have a ministry as known through the five offices in the church, his ministry was directly connected with the plan of salvation. Still he differentiated between what he could say based upon God's Word as the THUS SAITH THE LORD and what he said as a man of God according to his knowledge. For ever we should hold to the following fact, in reference to preaching THUS SAITH THE LORD is only what we find in the written Word of God – the Bible! The ministry of Paul was of greatest significance in connection with the plan of salvation, and still here and there he said something according to his knowledge. The same applies to the promised and extraordinary ministry of Brother Branham. The teachings laid down at the very beginning by God's commission in the New Testament church remains valid right to the end.
