Back to the OP. After Rice died, and Hyles became more and more radical, the influential Fundamental Baptist Fellowship denounced his position on the KJV a resolution printed in the November/December 1995 "Frontline" magazine. For those not familiar with this fellowship, it is mostly men who...

Speaking of Israel and my friend's ministry (just a brief excursus), here is a list he wrote that I really love: Who Started the Wars? Sure, the Six Day War in 1967 technically was started by Israel, but it was a preemptive strike against forces that were preparing and in position to attack...

Thank you for your unwarranted concern. John R. Rice was insulted. I am defending him. But you gave no Scripture telling me why you think debating is unscriptural. I would appreciate you informing me on your position. No need for me to debate you, but your stance is one I've never heard of and...

But Jesus debated the Pharisees. However much I agree with much of your post, these are the only parts I see that seem to connect with the OP. But I'm not sure how. What are you saying in regards to the English Bible and its relevance to the discussion?

In the meantime, here is what Jack Hyles said about the matter: "Of all the nations on the face of this earth, it seems to me that God would give the key nation the word of God" (Plains Baptist Challenger, ed. by E. L. Bynum, "Jack Hyles Speaks Out on Bible Versions," Sept. 1984, p. 3). So the...

Something that I have consistently pointed to as the Achilles Heel of the KJVO position is in regards to missions. I was a missionary to Japan for 33 years, and am the lead translator of a new Japanese Bible. (The NT has been published). I know many Bible translators and have corresponded with...

I don't know of any controversy with Walvoord, but there was one with Lewis Sperry Chafer. John R. Rice disagreed with a number of things in Chafer's book True Evangelism. Chafer took the view that the "evangelist" in the Bible was a cross-cultural missionary, and that the vocational evangelist...

In the above mentioned pamphlet, Dear Dr. John: Where is my bible? (sic), Herbert Evans challenges Rice to debate Peter Ruckman! That would have been bizarre. But be it known that, regardless of Ruckman's degrees and apparent knowledge (but not much understanding or wisdom), Rice would have...

Here is another quote about Ruckman from Rice: “Now, following a false teacher, a man with an angry disposition who split his own church, broke his own home and now, I hear, is in worse trouble—following him you have made a big issue about a doctrine not taught in the Bible at all, that the...

Here is my terminology. In my thinking, followers of Ruckman or Riplinger and their ilk are radical KJVO, or Ruckmanite. This includes a belief that the KJV is a perfect translation. Sometimes the more brainy advocates limit this to the English language. Others in the radical camp believe that...

Back to John R. Rice. Here is what he said about Peter Ruckman: "When a Peter Ruckman sets out to say that only he and a few others in the world are right on the matter of manuscript evidence for the Bible and says that in the King James Version the translation itself was inspired of God and is...

Although Hyles never claimed to follow Ruckman, as far as I know (maybe Logos can help here), he did openly follow Gail Riplinger and gave her an honorary doctorate of humanities. He also made her nonsensical and illogical and unbiblical book, New Age Versions, to be used as a textbook at...

Now here are quotes proving that JRR knew very well about many modern versions, and was very careful about how he commented on them.. He opposed liberal versions such as the RSV and GNB, but recommended other versions for study. “The scholar and the preacher would do well to have the American...

Yes. And my dear grandfather showed no knowledge of this.

I see that I started a similar thread several years ago, but this thread has a different focus, if you'll look at the OP of this thread and what Hyles said about JRR. Here is the previous thread: John R. Rice, Jack Hyles, and the KJV

And the majority of the mss are? And how many Alexandrian mss are there? Forgive me, but you are not thinking this through.

On p. 354 of Our God-Breathed Book--the Bible, he fails to realize that there are families of Greek manuscripts: "And we have thousands of manuscripts; so if one copyist made a stake, accidentally altering or leaving out a letter or adding a word, and if perhaps two or three others copied his...

Here are quotes that prove John R. Rice held the same position on the inspiration of the originals as opposed to an inspired translation all through his life. "Of course we do not mean that God gave the words in English as they are in our King James or Authorized Version of the Bible. We mean...

Excellent guitarist! Looks like she's playing on a classical guitar, and she seems to have classical training. But great finger style! Loved Simon and Garfunkle's version of this song when I was in high school--still do.

Wow, I'm honored! So much blessing in his life, but those two relationships, BJ Jr. and JH, ended in such a tragic way. I knew more than I could say concerning the relationship between my Granddad and Hyles. However, my goal in describing that relationship was that the history of the...
