Description: Within Pentecostal and Charismatic circles William Branham appeared a man with the combined prophetic status and prowess of Moses, Elijah and John the Baptist. His ministry of healing spearheaded the Healing Revival of the '40s and '50s. The miraculous which was said to attend his meetings dwarfed even the biblical accounts of Jesus' ministry. Appearances of pillars of fire, Christ, the Holy Spirit, angels, clouds and other phenomena were stated to accompany his meetings. Discernments of illnesses and personal information of his patients, staggered the minds of many. His name is found in many religious encyclopedia and in countless Internet Websites, pro and con. Legend of the Fall examines Wm. Branham's life and ministry from the position of an insider. Peter M. Duyzer's evaluation of Wm. Branham's life and his message challenges the status quo of Wm. Branham as a man sent from God. Duyzer holds a Master's degree (MACS) in Modern Apologetics from Northwest Baptist Seminary at Trinity Western University, in Langley, BC, Canada.
