I am not sure how you come up with my being angry, but that is far from the truth. I have posted the truth, not in anger, but in love. I was not dismissing them, but trying to correct them. I showed Scripture that clearly shows they are in err.
btw, anger is not necessarily bad either. Jesus got angry on more than one occasion. And His Word tells us, 'Be ye angry and sin not; let not the sun go down on your wrath. Quite obvious that some anger God allows.
But I did not post in anger as you thought.

Incidentally, in your zeal to vilify Dr. Ruckman (post #57), you chose to completely ignore my comments about the context of Acts 10 (post #52). That, not Ruckman, was the heart of the post.

Ruckman's teachings are quite evident there and I am not sure about how you see the Word of God, but I see that mine says not to even listen to false prophets. Ruckman certainly made may false prophecies concerning the Rapture, did he not? If I am not to accept his teachings, I am also not to accept the teachings of those who follow him.

I would gently and charitably direct your attention to 1 Timothy 5:1. Perhaps it says something else in "the original Greek," but you might want to consider the English before you slander a man who has been serving God for nearly 60 years.

60 years? Serving God? How so? by false prophecies? By his hateful and hurtful racial statements such as:

Like Chette, I do not think that I will be addressing you again. I hope you and your family have a long and fruitful life in God's service, and that, at some point, you will stumble across the message of 1 Corinthians 13.

Since Ruckman teaches also that the KJV is Superior to the original Hebrew and Greek, I hope you stumble across a better man to promote... one that points people to Christ rather than to someone else.
In stating that the KJV in english is superior to the Originals, Ruckman is telling people that God did not know what He was saying when He gave His Word to mankind... that God's Word was not to be trusted.
Run from that false prophet. Turn your eyes from him and back to the God of the Word.
