Branhamism explicitly affirms extra-biblical revelation through William Branham's ministry. Branham claimed to be commissioned by a divine angel to restore the faith to its apostolic purity and to bring the final message before the rapture. His sermons are not merely human commentary but divine revelation—the 'Spoken Word' for the Laodicean Age.

Branham's prophetic claims include angelic visitations, divine visions, and supernatural insights into Scripture. These revelations are treated as God's living Word for contemporary believers, standing alongside and above traditional ecclesiastical teaching. The theology of continuing revelation separates Branhamism from evangelical or fundamentalist Protestantism and places it in the realm of radical restorationism. For Message believers, Branham's words possess revelatory authority equal to or exceeding the written canon.
