The Latter Rain "Theophany" Celestial Beings

When the Christian Identity movement was birthed from British Israelism, and the Serpent's Seed (Christian Identity Two-Seed), Pre-Adamite Race, and "Hybreeding" became foundational doctrines, white supremacists such as William Potter Gale and Wesley Swift began teaching that the Children of Israel also had a pre-Adamite history on other planets. White supremacists separated the white and non-white people according to their planetary origin. According to the white supremacists, non-white people originated from a complex sexual union between Eve and the Serpent to produce Cain. Then Cain mated with a pre-Adamite earthly being to produce the non-white races of people. The white people, according to the doctrine, were celestial beings that took physical form as "Aryans" to produce the "Adamites."

William Branham popularized this doctrine in the Latter Rain movement. Branham's "Theophany Doctrine" built upon the Christian Identity teachings of Swift and Gale to claim that a human birth produces two life forms: a celestial being, or "spiritual body," and a human lifeform. Branham (and Swift ) taught that the "Heavenly Tabernacle" for the "new body" in 2 Corinthians 5 referred to a celestial body awaiting the human soul from an "Earthly Tabernacle" (human body).
According to Michael Barkun, the doctrine raises questions about Mormon influence in the British Israel/Christian Identity movements and, by extension, through William Branham, the Latter Rain Movement. Mormons also view themselves as the "true Israel," and that converts to the Mormon faith were transitioning to "blood Israelites." Mormon founder Joseph Smith, like Christian Identity, believed that the Lost Tribes of Israel had bred interracial populations scattered across the Earth and that many of the "true Israelites" were among them. By joining the Mormon faith, those wandering souls could rejoin Israel through the Mormon Church.
