Access Search

The Search button is located to the right of the Sermon Index button at the top of the screen.

Here you can locate a sermon or quote by searching all the words that Brother Branham spoke on Tape.


Search Tabs

There are two main tabs in the Search View.

The All tab allows you to search in all sermons while the Current Sermon tab allows you to search only within the sermon that is open.


Search Types

There are two basic types of searches: the All Words search and the Exact Phrase search

All Words Search

All Words searches for a collection of words within a quote. The words do not have to be found in the same order in the quote as they were entered into the search field or even be contained in the same phrase.


Exact Phrase Search

Exact Phrase searches for a specific sequence of words, finding the search terms exactly as they were entered into the dialog box.



To show the difference between the two:

Typing the words "Holy Spirit" will find hits containing both the words spirit and holy, when used in the All Words option.


If you tap the exact phrase button, you will see only hits containing the exact phrase: Holy Spirit.


Word Prediction

In the All tab, select the all words search and type in the word "spirit."

Notice the word prediction as you type. Each word includes the number of times the word is used. This helps you refine your search terms.


Load Search Results In Sermon Text

Once you’ve found a search result you like, simply tap on that quote, and the Table will load the sermon with the search terms you used highlighted in the text.


Search History

If you would like to load a past search, rather than typing it out again, select the search history button.

This will display a list of previous searches.

Tap on one to load the search.


If you would like to delete your search history, please press the clear button.

Confirm you would like to delete your search history by selecting yes.
