An in-depth look into the creation of the Post WWII Healing Revival focusing on the historical perspective of William Marrion Branham, who has been credited by some as the evangelist who both initiated and led the movement. Examine the origins of the evangelist, the men who created him, and the men who influenced his doctrine from his early years as a Southern Indiana minister in the river city of Jeffersonville, Indiana, to his career as an internationally recognized faith healer. From his involvement with the Kardashian family in California to his politically-charged sermons supporting the revival of the Ku Klux Klan, William Branham lived a fascinating and unbelievable history connected to the collaboration, influence, and power of recognized public figures and events in American history. Some of those public figures made the F.B.I.'s Top Ten Most Wanted List as they entered the Healing Revival while others became respected ministers of the Gospel. Learn how a handful of men with one common goal orchestrated the events leading to some of the darkest moments in American history. These men pursued their goal through a strategy conceived decades before, while they were secretly planning in the shadows of the night. What was their objective? The "Americanization" of the United States.The research is filled with over a thousand footnotes, resources, and quotes from the transcripts of William Branham, Jim Jones, Roy Davis, Congressman William D. Upshaw, and many others. Over a decade of research packed into one book, Preacher Behind the White Hoods: A Critical Examination of William Branham and His Message walks you through the events of William Branham's life story. Rather than retelling the many versions of the "life story" used to create his stage persona - this book examines the events in the life of the historical William Branham. A shocking, pioneering eye-opener that blows the lid off the hagiographic "life-story" that has been blindly accepted by countless thousands of Branham followers through the decades. {...} Collins has left no stone unturned in his quest to uncover the truth in this meticulously researched study. It deserves to be widely read; apart from its historical value, it has much to say to the present-day church about the use of discernment.- Tom Lennie. Prophecy Today (UK). Collins has written an important and excellent book about Branham, entitled Preacher Behind the White Hoods: A Critical Examination of William Branham and His Message. Yes, "White Hoods" refers to the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). Collins also has a website devoted to informing people about The Message cult, as well as, other destructive religious cults. His website serves as a place for ex-members to find information and support in their journey toward freedom of mind.- Dr. Steven Hassan, Cult Expert Absolutely fascinating chapter in American History This is a fantastically written and well-researched book that exposes one of the most disturbing chapters of America's history. Dealing with the story of the "prophet" William Branham and the religious Cult he founded and its ties to the KKK, this book has EVERYTHING-Racist Conmen, UFOs, The Jim Jones Massacre, The Kennedy Assassination, Mysterious Clouds, The Kardashians....the story of William Branham and all the nefarious events he had a hand in is almost too outrageous to believe-fortunately this is also one of the most well-researched and thoroughly documented books I've ever read. In addition to the author's own personal recollections about being an ex-follower of this cult, he also provides all the numerous footnotes and citations to back up every fact on every page-a must for any book dedicated to exposing the lies of Branham's fanatical followers determined to deny the truth. - Joseph R. Owens
