- William M. Branham (Wikipedia)
William Marrion Branham (April 6, 1909 – December 24, 1965) was an American Christian minister and faith healer who initiated the post-World War II healing revival, and claimed to be a prophet with the anointing of Elijah, who had come to prelude Christ’s second coming; some of his followers have been labeled a “doomsday cult”. He is credited as “a principal architect of restorationist thought” for charismatics by some Christian historians, and has been called the “leading individual in the Second Wave of Pentecostalism.” He made a lasting influence on televangelism and the modern charismatic movement, and his “stage presence remains a legend unparalleled in the history of the Charismatic movement”.
- In Christianity, annihilationism (also known as extinctionism or destructionism) is the belief that after the Last Judgment, all damned humans and fallen angels including Satan will be totally destroyed, cremated, and their consciousness extinguished rather than suffering forever in Hell. Annihilationism stands in contrast to both the belief in eternal torment and to the universalist belief that everyone will be saved. However, it is also possible to hold to a partial annihilationism, believing unsaved humans to be obliterated or cremated, but demonic beings to suffer forever.
