It’s interesting that no word of this expedition to get into the cornerstone was ever related to anyone. Billy Paul never mentioned it. It was not mentioned to the congregation gathered at Branham Tabernacle in the ‘70’s.

BTS,
I understand if you don't want to believe me. But we our witness is confident in what his eyes saw and the other people who were present when it happened. Your other eye witness account has given you no more hard evidence of their account than I have. So with neither of us able to produce anything but an eyewitness account, I will leave it at that.
In either event, even if you want to discount our position, paper and leather would have been completely decayed by 1978. There is a completely plausible explanation as to why it was not found in the corner stone when it was dug up. Unlike Joseph Smith, Bro. Branham's did not have tablets made of gold which would prevent decay.
I agree it is unusual that Billy Paul cannot simply put a photocopy of the leaf of his father's bible online so that we could just see it. I have also heard so many "Bro. Branham legends" made up by people that I know many are made up fairy tales. A lot of it is not real. Which is why so many of us have moved on. Bro. Branham is gone, and not everything he did or said is defensible. I would not give you eyewitness accounts unless I was confident in them.
Regards,
ABM
