I thought it was interesting that he met George Lamsa, who seemed to respect Branham. A lot of people seem to think that Lamsa didn't believe in the supernatural, but if he believed Branham to be a man of God like I do, then he would have had to have had some belief in the miraculous. I know his translation doesn't seem very pro-miracle in several places (like II Kings 6:6 and the demoniacs being called lunatics) though!
Shlama Akhi SS2:
You should be aware that the meeting and possible ethereal connection between Branham and Lamsa was of no real substance. As a recognized evangelist he would have met many people of position, such as Lamsa. Branham's views were renounced by many Christian protestants as heretical, namely, the doctrine of the serpent seed. Please read more.

This post is purely to show a little about Branham, from the Wikipedea, and is by no means the full story. The heresy of the serpent's seed, namely the Jews is completely false. He further identified the "angel" of each church as a human messenger. The seven messengers he named as Paul the Apostle, Irenaeus, Martin of Tours, Columba, Martin Luther, John Wesley and at last should be Elijah.By calling Martin Luther one of the seven messengers is a further indication of his Christian Anti-Semitism and/or his lack of true discernment.
