William Branham - No Flesh Saved

Throughout his career as an evangelist, William Branham used Doomsday Predictions to create religious frenzy. Though he is recognized as a "doomsday Prophet" for his prediction that the world would end in 1977, Branham used many Doomsday Predictions to excite the crowds. This was especially true during times of political unrest and world conflict.

In the 1948 iteration of his Stage Persona, Branham launched a newsletter for self-promotion, "The Voice of Healing". William Branham was the publisher, while Gordon Lindsay and Jack Moore were listed as editors. During this "Latter Rain" version of Stage Persona, William Branham introduced a new end-of-the-world prediction. Using numbers that sounded significant to "predict" world events, Branham claimed that the world had 1,520 days from November 1948, until the end of the world. This would place the End of Days in September, 1955.

A year before this target, in 1954, William Branham introduced his "No Flesh Saved" doctrine. This doctrine was based loosely upon a passage from Matthew 24 in the Christian Bible:

And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. - Matthew 24
