:''It has many so-called discrepancies, seeming contradictions and conundrums in its many stories and teachings. Most theologians don’t even use the king James Bible anymore for this reason. But yet we can see that it is the Bible that William Branham used to back down demons by the thousands throughout his ministry. It is the Bible we stick with as God’s inerrant and infallible Word. God hides truth from the intellectual, and even Jesus thanked the Father for this.

Jason Watkins states (incorrectly) that there is no proof that Jesus existed:

This again demonstrates Jason Watkins lack of education and knowledge of where the Bible came from.

==William Branham preached the same message as Paul==


Jason Watkins states:


:''Millions who are already on the other side, and who raised one single voice that they were resting on this message because Brother Branham only taught what Paul taught. Either that event happened beyond the curtain of time, or it did not!


But did William Branham preach the same message as Paul?


==Defending William Branham's cloud story==


Jason Watkins defense of the cloud:
:''Let any say what they want to about the cloud over Arizona. Be it God creating a cloud that science cannot explain or a rocket. Brother Branham told about it in a vision months before.
:''So you think it was a rocket ship, fine, but what made it in the shape of a pyramid-like shape that Brother Branham spoke of months before. Moreover, then turn it to the right, and it’s the profile shape of Jesus Christ. I can see it, you can see it, anyone can see it
:''William Branham never said he was caught up in a cloud. He said he was caught up into a constellation of Angels and was told to go back east for the opening of the seals. Then before he could make a horrible mistake (his words) in teaching them, the pillar of fire, the Angel of the Lord came into his room literally and opened the seals to him, and we have the opening of the seals. That’s the main point!!!!!
==There are no biblical errors in the message!==
Jason Watkins makes a statement he cannot back up:
:Can you deny any single teaching of the message using the Bible?
I say, no!
==We are infidels==
Jason Watkins next argument is a personal attack on us and others.  It also proves that he has never investigated our questions in any serious manner:
:''Neither can the infidels that you referred to in your letter as sincere men with sincere questions.
:''They are dishonest men with disingenuous questions. They are ALL backslid and living in the world, attending churches that carry names of blasphemy, are themselves the daughters of harlotry to the mother whore and are in support of the beast system that leads to his marking.
:''Shall you follow them in their insidious ways and turn away from a man who never had a railing accusation against his testimony? A humble servant of God who proved the infallibility of God’s Bible?
:''A humble servant of God who demonstrated for 33 years of ministry that Jesus Christ was alive, and the same yesterday today and forever, and he did it seven times around the world?
