"Belief in Branham is global. There are at least 6500 ministers worldwide who align themselves at least in part with Branham’s prophetic ministry, in total about 2 million followers, many in the 2/3 world. A quick look at where Branham’s ministry, the Voice of God, is located, Angola, Philippines, Argentina, Benin, Bolivia, India, Togo, and South Africa among dozens of other countries says much about what researchers have told us about global Pentecostalism. First, its more supernaturally inclined than U.S. variety–healing and prophecy being staples of Pentecostal practice. Second, its theological fluidity allows for the Oneness variety to be accepted more readily, mostly because Pentecostalism is popular because it is viewed as working for everyday needs." [1]
