YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThis video took more work than any other I've done. I collected quotes for it for three years; I wrote the script over the course of two years; I shot the video over the course of one year. That does mean that one or two clips address Confessional Bibliology, a group which I subsequently decided not to engage publicly for a time, times, and half a time. Also, I called Joe Shakour “King James Only” and thought nothing of it. I have since talked further with him and would not use this label, at his request. Nota bene. I just didn't have the energy and time to go back and reshoot those segments.
A few more notes:
- I shot the initial segments on Ruckmanism (at the beautiful site in Anacortes) almost a year before the release of the video, and after talking at some length with a courteous follower of Ruckman (I still don't know how those things go together) I now think it more accurate to say that Ruckman believed that the KJV "improved upon" rather than "corrected" the Greek. But Ruckman*ism* as a viewpoint is still commonly regarded among mainstream KJV-Onlyists to involve "double inspiration," even if that's not language Ruckman would have used. That is what these brothers are rejecting, so it is the focus of this video.
Here is the report I produced, twenty years ago now, on the views of Peter Ruckman
- I have a couple minor typos in quotes. I left out a "c" in the word "complete" in a Gail Riplinger quote.
