problem
--
this
was
the
case
with
many
ministers
in
the
Pentecostal
faith.
"Evidence,"
or
the
ability
to
produce
supernatural
signs,
took
priority
over
correct
interpretation
of
scripture
and
understanding
of
doctrine.
In
1949,
Hoekstra
began
suffering
difficulties
in
his
ministry
after
awareness
started
spreading
concerning
his
association
the
child
evangelist.
But
while
Hoekstra
was
the
child's
campaign
manager,
and
in
the
same
Cadle
Tabernacle
where
William
Branham
started
Jim
Jones
into
his
rise
to
infamy,
Hoekstra
scheduled
a
crusade
of
meetings.
"Little
David"
preached
to
a
packed
house
of
over
10,000
people.
During
the
course
of
this
meeting,
Hoekstra
embraced
the
mysticism
of
the
"Latter
Rain"
movement,
and
began
believing
that
healing
oil
was
flowing
through
his
hands.
Others
in
the
meeting
claimed
to
have
received
the
same
"evidence."
Over
time,
many
of
the
ministers
--
Hoekstra
included
--
decided
to
abandon
the
idea
of
speaking
in
tongues
being
the
evidence
of
the
Holy
Spirit.
Evidence
suggests
that
William
Branham
was
part
of
the
Little
David
meeting.
At
minimum,
he
supported
it,
later
inviting
Hoekstra
to
preach
at
the
Branham
Tabernacle
in
Jeffersonville,
Indiana.
How
many
hear
"The
Wings
Of
Healing,"
Doctor
Wyatt
and
them;
and
a
bosom
friend
of
mine,
Raymond
Hoekstra?
'Course
he's
preached
right
here
at
the
Tabernacle,
Raymond
Hoekstra.
He
went
up
into
East
India,
up
there,
and
had
a
revival,
and
had
thousands
of
converts
up
in
there.
See
what
God's
a-doing?

But
his
connection
was
more
than
just
to
Hoekstra
--
Branham
and
"Little
David"
shared
the
pulpit
often.
In
fact,
Branham
claimed
that
"Little
David"
was
"God's
Gift
to
the
Church"
in
a
1958
sermon.
In
the
40s
Little
David
was
healed
of
blindness
at
age
5;
called
to
preach
at
age
9
during
a
five-hour
vision
of
heaven;
immediately
began
crusades
across
America.
Thousands
of
people
packed
stadiums,
auditoriums,
and
tents
to
hear
the
boy
preacher;
multitudes
saved
and
healed;
in
San
Diego,
many
sailors
convened
before
going
overseas
in
the
war,
and
some
are
preaching
the
gospel
today;
mission
journey
to
Mexico
at
age
12,
where
God
saved
him
from
kidnappers;
preached
with
William
Branham
during
the
early
days
of
Branhams
ministry

Little
David
Miracle
Boy
Preacher
When
they
had
a
little
boy
raised
up
sometime
ago,
and
I
went
to
see
the
little
lad
about
ten
or
twelve
years
ago
His
name
was
little
David
Walker,
a
wonderful
little
preacher.
He
didn't
tell
little
stories
like
mama
had
coaxed
him,
how
Jesus
a
little
baby.
He
took
off
his
coat,
and
took
a
text,
and
handled
it
like
a
man.
And
I
talked
to
some
of
the
brethren.
I
had
just
been
new
in
the
full
Gospel
realm.
I
didn't
know
they
had
the
same
trouble
that
we
Baptists
had,
of
all
kinds
of
breakups.
I
thought
they
were
angels.
And
so
then
we
find
out,
one
of
them
said,
"Well,
he
belongs
to
the
certain-certain
group."
I
said,
"What
difference
does
it
make
where
his
father
belongs?
He's
the
gift
that
God
has
sent
to
the
Church."

Hoekstra's
impact
on
William
Branham
was
so
strong
that
Branham
would
interrupt
the
reading
of
Scripture
to
remind
his
followers
of
their
connection.
Now,
in
the
Scripture,
the
2nd
chapter
of
Luke.
And
before
I
read
this,
though,
I'd
forgot
to
make
mention
of
these
other
ministering
brother.
Brother
Hoekstra
hereI
He's
been
a
bosom
friend
of
mine
for
years.
I
remember
the
first
time
I
met
Brother
Hoekstra.
In
Indianapolis,
Indiana,
there
was
a
boy
dying
with
polio
in
the
iron
lung.

But
Hoekstra
did
not
continue
the
"Little
David
ministry,"
though
it
lasted
almost
three
years.
In
1950,
he
decided
to
leave
the
UPC
and
start
a
prison
ministry,
and
made
the
following
announcement
in
The
Pentecostal
Herald:
This
is
to
advise
all
concerned
that
Raymond
G.
Hoekstra
is
not
in
fellowship
with
the
United
Pentecostal
Church"
Hoekstra
asked
William
Branham
to
speak
in
Houston,
TX
on
behalf
of
the
homosexual
transvestite
and
female
prostitute
who
murdered
a
real-estate
agent.
Organizing
a
"Mercy
for
Ashley-Lima
Committee,
Hoekstra
declared
a
campaign
of
meetings
to
be
held
in
Houston.
This
meeting
was
announced
in
the
Odessa
American
on
Wednesday,
February
27,
1963.
Those
familiar
with
the
"Cloud
Event"
are
faced
with
several
questions
after
reviewing
all
of
the
information.
How
could
William
Branham
be
standing
underneath
a
cloud
on
February
28,
1963
when
he
claimed
to
have
hunted
after
he
was
in
Houston
Texas
for
a
revival
that
started
March
5,
1963?
