Billy Paul Branham, the firstborn son of Reverend William Marrion Branham, was born in 1935 in Jeffersonville Indiana. He lost his mother and baby sister at the age of two and many of his early years were spent in the poverty of, and following, the great depression. His father earned a humble living as a lineman for Public Service, Indiana, and in 1941 married Meda Broy, the young lady who had taken care of Billy since his mother’s death.
As a result of the early suffering, he and his father developed a very close bond and after the start of his fathers public ministry, he spent much of his
time in and around his father’s meetings, selling books and helping in the prayer lines. He has been witness to many miraculous healings and manifestations of God’s power in our day. He is the person who had the closest relationship with William Branham and bares the greatest witness to the unique life and ministry of this humble servant of God. A small portion of his testimony is written in the folds of this booklet and we hope that it will bring hope and encouragement to the reader. For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
