William Branham's Prophecies Buried in the Cornerstone
In 1953, William Branham claimed to have had a series of prophecies in 1933. According to Branham, the evidence of this was found in the cornerstone of his Tabernacle; he allegedly buried a paper containing the prophecies in the cornerstone.
Dig up that cornerstone out here and read a piece of paper that’s put in there, thirty-three years ago. See what He said over yonder on—on Seventh Street, that morning when this cornerstone was laid. Now watch it. Watch down here on the river, when the Angel of the Lord came down in a form of a Pillar of Fire, hundreds of the churches, or peoples of the church, standing around on the bank; what He said, see if it’s come to pass. See what’s happened.
Branham, William. 1965, July 25. The Anointed Ones At The End Time (65-0725M). "
Though the deed to the Billie Branham Pentecostal Tabernacle was 1936, and this "evidence" could not be proven without its removal, the cornerstone remained untouched until Branham's death in 1965. After his death, the cornerstone was exhumed and found to be empty.
Well, we wanted to pay our last respects. So as we was going by the tabernacle we saw a group of the brothers with a jackhammer busting into the original cornerstone that Brother Branham had put in there. and they busted into the cornerstone and we saw it At the time it had busted into the cornerstone there was the form of a cylinder that had been shaped around the concrete that nothing in the world would permit that to happen unless there had been a cylinder in that It’s for you sisters might be able to understand it a little better. If you took pudding or jello And put it in the refrigerator and opened it up Would you have a cavity in the center of it? No you wouldn't! It'd be a solid mix Same way with concrete; concrete always falls always fills up the complete area But this cornerstone had had a cylinder of some sort perhaps the size of a Coke a Cola can or something Marilyn and I both saw it at the same time So there was actually … Brother Branham had said that he put something in the cornerstone and he did! But God did not want it revealed So God mysteriously took it out It is the biggest miracle I've ever witnessed in my life! I told brother Reese and my dad I've seen all kind of healings But how in the world would anything take that out of that concrete except almighty God?
