Doing God a service without being in His Will

« »

In one of his last sermons, Brother Branham dealt with this subject for two hours and 29 minutes on November 27, 1965, and emphasized the difference between the individuals who actually receive and carry out a commission and the ones who decide on their own that they have to carry out some commission. So who is in the Will of God, and who does what he does in the Will of God? Certainly only he whom the God of heaven Himself ordained for a ministry here on earth. Noah, Moses, Elijah, John the Baptist, Paul – they all could say that they did everything according to the Word and commandment of the LORD (Gen. 7:5; Ex. 39:42; 1. Kgs. 18:36; Lk. 3:2; Acts 26:16).

What happened in our time according to the Will of God? Has God stopped His work on earth since the departure of Brother Branham in December 1965? The calling and commission of Brother Branham is known worldwide. But how did it continue after his death? Who was called even before that? Who took action directly after Brother Branham’s burial to make sure that the sermons of Brother Branham, which were only on tape at that time, would be printed and published? Why do all of the message preachers keep the seamless transition a secret? Who then planned and arranged the first meetings in Europe and all the other countries worldwide? Who was commissioned by God Himself to store in and give out the food? To whom were given precise instructions from the lips of the LORD Himself? And who has done everything precisely according to the commandment of the LORD in this time?What is the matter with all of the individuals who at some point, even decades later, had the sudden idea of doing God a service? There are volumes of books published about the life story of the prophet; books are written that are really only about the person “William Branham.” Do we have the life story of our LORD and Redeemer, or do we have a plan of Salvation? HE was only mentioned at the circumcision on the eighth day (Lk. 2:28), then at the age of twelve in the temple (Lk. 2:42), and then not until the age of thirty when He started His ministry (Lk. 3:23). Do we have a book about John the Baptist and his life story? Do we have one about Paul? Even an album with 333 photographs is supposed to keep the cult around Branham alive. In yet another book, interviews with 36 people are recorded that are strictly about memories of Brother Branham and the time until 1965.What has happened? The glorification of a man has taken over. Nothing can be heard about Jesus Christ. What does all of this have to do with God and the true message? What God is presently doing is being denied, rejected, or concealed. In this way, an irreparable chaos has been caused by those who think they have to do a service for God without actually having received a call and direct commission.
