We, as the elders of the local church in Krefeld, Germany, deem it a privilege to place this brochure into your hands and we trust that the richest blessings of the almighty will rest upon you while reading it.

Without doubt, this brochure will fall into the hands of believers, unbelievers and also those, who have not yet made their decision. May the Lord have His way with you.

We as a congregation love Bro. Branham and believe the Message he brought. His ministry had laid the foundation for us to come back to the unadulterated Word. The whole building of the church of the living God rests upon that chief cornerstone, Who is also the Headstone, the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, He that is, was and shall come, the Almighty.

We fully realise that no man can wear Bro. Branham’s shoes, as he had a special calling and ministry. Yet he himself said, “I can make mistakes, I’m a man, but God’s Word is infallible.” The things he spoke in the name of the Lord are ‘Thus Saith the Lord!’ But when it comes to exulting a man or even attaching absolute authority to his person instead of God’s Word, it is quite obvious that the spirit of the first organised church is behind it. You judge for yourself!

We realise many organisations claim to have God and … . They have the Bible plus … – thus establishing their doctrines apart from the Word. It is our conviction that a God-ordained ministry can never contradict the Word of God; in fact, there cannot be any adding or taking away.

For many years now, we have been associated with Bro. Frank, have known him personally and observed his ministry locally and in other countries. We fully back him in the world-wide missionary outreach because of his stand on the Word, as we are witnesses of the things God has done, not only in the church here, which grew from a handful to several hundred, but also throughout Europe and the uttermost parts of the earth. He has not spared himself, but in addition to our regular services, he has spent countless hours to make the sermons of Bro. Branham available to us in print and on tapes. He has translated hundreds of messages during our services. Our prayers always accompany him and we fully stand behind the call God has given him. His three brochures, “Only Believe the Thus Saith the Lord!”, “The Impact of Revelation” and “Christ and His Church in the Prophecy” have been a blessing to many. More than 80 000 copies have been sent out and numerous people have written to express their appreciation because they have come to a better understanding of the End-time Message from the scriptural point of view. This is not a duplication of efforts, but rather meant to assist those who need help. The Lord did not stop His work after taking His servant and prophet and He Himself is about to finish His work in the Bride of Jesus Christ.

May God richly bless you!
