The Message Part 34: William Branham and Peoples Temple

This episode examines William Branham's connection to the formation, promotion, and growth of Peoples Temple. It begins with a brief history of the Laurel Street Tabernacle where Jones first began his "Full Gospel" ministry, the influence "Latter Rain" and "Voice of Healing" had on Jones' early career, Jones affiliation with men and business entities also affiliated with William Branham, and Jones' speaking engagements with editors of Branham's Voice of Healing publication. It also examines the Ku Klux Klan and white supremacy origins of the healing revival, Kardashian patriarch Tatos "Thomas" Kardashian's sponsorship, Branham's early meetings with Avak Hagopian, and his 1945 healing campaign. Last, it examines the situation created by a hostile church takeover that led to Jim Jones joining Branham's "Message" following, Rev. Joseph Mattsson-Boze and William Branham assisting Jones after the takeover and the birth of Peoples Temple. It explains the difficulty in finding this information after what appears to have been edited sermon recordings and transcripts and provides examples of Jim Jones hosting William Branham revivals outside of the state of Indiana.br br Names discussed in this video:br • Rev.
