Answer: No. To my knowledge, as of yet no one has found a corresponding statement from Brother Branham about having such a vision. It can no longer be determined who originally came up with this story. We first came to know about the supposed “calendar vision” in 1966. Later on, the calendar vision was published and I mentioned it in my Circular Letter of February 1967. Then I began having certain doubts in regard to the year 1977, so, as I previously mentioned, I asked Bro. Lee Vayle for clarification. In the same letter, dated January 17th, 1972, he wrote the following about the calendar vision, “Now, Brother Frank, due to people publishing that Brother Branham saw a calendar flipping over by hand until the date 1977 came into view, and finding that was not his vision at all, but merely something someone made up, we discussed this very thing …” The tragic part is that no correction was ever made by the responsible parties in the USA, and to this day we are left with the lie that Brother Branham made that prediction. Therefore his enemies use it to their advantage and declare that he was a “false prophet”, because the prediction was not fulfilled.
