INTRODUCTION
BY LION OF JUDAH SITE OWNER
The
following articles were written by a Pat Benner, who apparently
is a disgruntled KJV Onlyist / former "Ruckmanite";
these articles originally appeared at the following URL:
http://www.webzone.net/amigatec/ruckman/index.html
Apparently
at one time, these same articles were hosted at this URL:
www.touchet1611.org/RuckmanismRefuted.html
I
present them here only because I have been unable to find
them anywhere else on the web. The "greyed out"
titles far below represent pages that I have not
made, and I do not know if I ever will make them -- haven't
decided.
Now,
on to the mud slinging:
Ruckmanism
[by
P. Benner, a disgruntled former Ruckmanite]
As you
entered this WebSite you undoubtedly saw this Graphic:
I have
been involved in Debates with many followers of Dr. Peter
S. Ruckman, I even attended a Ruckmanite Church for some time.
But the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to the truth of his UNSCRIPTURAL
Teachings, and I began to research his 'Doctrines' and beliefs.
It was
Not my Intent to write a Long Article on this but as I began
to study the many different Teachings of Dr. Peter S. Ruckman,
I began to understand more and more of his Unscriptural Methods,
and quite frankly I was appalled at what I have found. As
I continue my Research I will continue to add Articles from
time to time. I feel this issue is important enough to oppose
to the world.
When I
first openly opposed his teachings, I was called a,
a Church
Splitter,
accused
of a Conspiracy,
called
Stupid,
accused
of Dividing the King James Only Camp,
accused
of engaging in false accusations against the brethren,
taking
a position of ignorance,
being
divisive and intolerant,
called
a self-righteous Pharisee,
accused
of going on an anti-Ruckman tirade,
accused
of Name-calling,
and when
I challenged their position on the King James Bible, I was
made a Member of the ALEXANDRIAN CULT!!
We are
told in the last days that:
Jude
1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were
before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men,
turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying
the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Mt 7:15
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
1Co
11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they
which are approved may be made manifest among you.
2 John
1:9-11 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine
of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine
of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there
come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive
him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For
he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
1 Tim
4:1-4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter
times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing
spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy;
having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
2 Tim
4:3-5 For the time will come when they will not endure sound
doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves
teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away
their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the
work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
2 Cor
11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom
we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which
ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not
accepted, ye might well bear with him.
Gal
1:8-10 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any
other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto
you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now
again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that
ye have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade
men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased
men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
According
to Webster 1824 a HERETIC is:
"A
person under any religion, but particularly the Christian,
who holds and teaches opinions repugnant to the established
faith, or that which is made the standard of orthodoxy. In
strictness, among Christians, a person who holds and avows
religious opinions contrary to the doctrines of Scripture,
the only rule of faith and practice."
Titus
3:10-11 A man that is an heretic after the first and second
admonition reject; Knowing that he that is such is subverted,
and sinneth, being condemned of himself.
We are
also told to test the spirits
1
John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits
whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone
out into the world.
Now I
will apply the test of Scripture to the teachings of Dr. Peter
S. Ruckman.
Listed
in this article are just some of his unscriptural teachings.
I offer
4 articles here.
The first
is taken from Mr. James R. White's Website.
The Second
is from Dr. Ruckman's own writings.
The Third
and Fourth are from David Cloud
