Did William Branham baptize Dr DGS Dhinakaran?

Answer 1

Dr DGS Dhinakaran and Dr John Joseph, the twin major prophets of the land (India) were baptized in the name of Lord Jesus Christ by Paulaseer Lawrie. Bro Lawrie was baptized by William Marrion Branham in the name of Lord Jesus Christ. Paulaseer Lawrie in later years fell into deception by going beyond the doctrine of Christ and the written word. Whereas Branham, Dhinakaran and John Joseph remained faithful to Lord Jesus Christ till their home calling.

1. Lawrie's own words:

"When God called me He said, "I have blessed your right hand." God did mighty miracles. In 1962 God shook the country of India. We were preaching to two and a half lakhs of people one day. Miracles happened. In those meetings only, present day preachers were converted. That Evangelist Dhinakaran got the Holy Ghost in our meeting; Jeevanandam, all the people were born those days." November 12, 1981 (Bombay - Day 2) - R. Paulaseer Lawrie

"God brought a big revival in India. In Madras state we had twenty five major campaigns. And the city of Madras, twenty one days, we had nearly two and a half lakhs of people in the meeting. The greatest revival meeting in India! During that time, Mr. Dhinakaran came to our house and he got baptised in the name of Jesus. He first took baptism in the church as an infant. Then he took baptism in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost in the Indian

Pentecost. There was no blessing. Then he wrote a letter to me... So he came to our house. He took baptism, filled with the Holy Ghost, came to the ministry. Jeevanandam same way. Rose Pandian same way. Then bishops, collectors, Mr. Sundar Clarke, all these people God blessed." November 14, 1981 (Bombay - Day 4) - R. Paulaseer Lawrie
