G. A. Riplinger and fundamentalism

[robycop3]

Hello, Armchair scholar! Gladta see ya here! I am "Steelmaker" on Ezboard.

While every controversial author has his/her critix, I took the time to check out some of the criticism against GAR and found it to be true far as I could go. I don't have YOUR resources, but I was able to check out her misquotes of other authors against their actial statements in their boox, & found them to be true.

And, as almost every other KJVO author has done, she has copied from Dr. Wilkinson's book.

I've found YOUR work to be right on the money! I hope anyone interested will check out the facts for him/herself!

 

[Armchair Scholar]

That's pretty strange! We are to be ready to give an answer for the hope that is within us at any time--and not for money, either!

And to that, I say, Amen!

Hello, Armchair scholar! Gladta see ya here! I am "Steelmaker" on Ezboard.

It's GOOD to see you here, Roby/Steelmaker! :wavey:

All we can do is hope that others will do their own research. They can't very well argue that GAR is an honest person and know for sure unless they find out for themselves.

 

[Salamander]

Hmmm? Maybe some one should analyze the lives of those who have analyzed her?

Seems somebody has got a beam in their eyes.:godisgood:

 

[Salamander]

I've never read her salvation testimony, personally. Is it out there somewhere on the Internet or in one of her books?

Don't know, it'd be best to simply ask her.

 

[Salamander]

Anyone can invent a salvation testimony, so I wouldn't concern myself with one from GAR. What I DO concern myself with is her myriad falsehoods & misinformation.

Ooooooooooo! Another Christian not concerned about the eternal condition of another soul???

Venomous, venomous!

 

[Salamander]

Now, Salamander, you should know that God's word tells us that only God removes someone's name from the Lamb's Book of Life. Maybe the real question is, Is GAR's name written there? I have spent over 2 years studying the words in NABVs that GAR claims to have quoted from books written by Westcott and Hort, etc. and have found that 99% of the time, she has twisted their words out of context so that they are no longer saying (in her book) what they said in the historic originals. This, as God's word calls it, is lying. A book full of 700 pages of this kind of lying, is habitual or willful lying. God's word also tells us that "all liars shall have their place in the lake of fire."

Food for thought...

Of course you would attribute the W/H Greek to be "historic"!:laugh:

Where we come from the W/H Greek text is called the "corrupt" Greek.

Seems more like you've become judge, jury, and a band of angels at the same time.raying:

 

[Salamander]

You won't find a publicly written personal testimony by GAR. Because I couldn't find one when I began my research on her, I wrote to her and asked if there was a place on her site, or somewhere, where I could read it. I received a short defensive reply that indicated how dare I ask for that, and then I was offered a CD I could call and purchase to "see" her testimony. I was rather shocked because I had expected a kind Christian reply that gladly offered the joyous testimony of one who has met the Lord.

Does someone have to believe they are a big somebody to charge for their testimony??

Yes, it is true that anyone can make up a Christian testimony. I have read about accounts of Christians who have discovered occult infiltrators inside churches that preached, led the music, taught youth groups, and talked just like they were Christians. How they were discovered was by being caught molesting some of the children in the church or being walked in on as they were doing occult ritual right inside the church sanctuary when the church was not in use.

This sheds light on the warnings that Jesus and Paul gave us about being careful not to be deceived (deception is such a tricky thing and looks so often like the real deal) and to beware of those wolves that would come into the fold wearing "sheep's clothing." They didn't warn us for nothing. :godisgood:

Look for my public testimony online: Alan Manders.

It's right there, but I won't think you to find it. So be sure when and if you do post it in quotations please and give the source, OK?


You seem more like a wolf devouring some one for their studies.:tear:

Ever hear of Christian Polity?

The originals being referred to are the books written by Rev. Wescott and Rev. Hort not the Greek text they edited. Further, if you look up the thread an attempt was made to get Mrs. Ludwig-Riplinger's testimony of her salvation

Most preachers I know can and will happily tell you about their salvation experience. It's as easy as writting

I was saved on a Wednesday evening in July, 1972 around 9pm in Anderson, Indiana. Mrs. Brown my landlady showed me from the book of Romans why and what I needed to do.

See in two sentences the question is answered.

I googled "Alan Manders" and found nothing Christian. :smilewinkgrin: (Just yanking your chain.) Seriously, I didn't find any "Alan Manders" testimony or anything.

 

[Salamander]

Anything referred to by W/H is subject to scrutiny, just as Riplinger is. But this seems more like a gossip column rather than an objective discussion.

I have a hard time accepting the validity of their report when they advertantly cause a reproach upon another's person aas has happened in this case.

Are you also attributing to her the call to preach? I find her to be nothing more than an English teacher. To call her salvation into question reeks of a beam in the eye to try and remove a mote, or maybe even place a mote in her eye?

Thy search must means to be much more indepth.

It's actually right under your nose!:wavey:

No, I'm not attributing to her a call to preach. However, if you asked any number of women who speak at ladies' conferences and seminars you'd get a quick and easy answer.

No, I am not calling her salvation into question. I am calling her reluctence to give a testimony and the unavailabilty in third party sources about it into question.

I find your characterizing her as "nothing more than an English teacher" to be disingenuous. No matter what she or you claim her to be, to me in practical terms, she is teaching on the doctrine of Bibliology.

If you mean your BB profile, all you say there is "Thank you Lord!!!"

And in spite of the fact that no IFB Bible college I know of would have a woman teach a course in Bibliology, yet IFB pastors still have her in to lecture. Inconceivable!

Exactly, "Teaching" on the doctrine of Bibliology doesn't award her the title "preacher", now does it.

Er, since our Bible is in English, and her teaching is done in English, I find her to be teaching Bibliology in English, to be teaching English.:wavey:

 

[Salamander]

If you mean your BB profile, all you say there is "Thank you Lord!!!"

No, not exactly, but it would suffice.

Just to help matters: I was saved nearly 15 years ago by the grace of God. Under conviction by the Holy Ghost for my sins against God and humanity, against God and my family, against God and my fellow man. Not having anywhere else to turn, from below the bottom of the barrel, yes BELOW the bottom ofd the barrel! I found the Saviour looking for me!

Pro 11:14Where no counsel [is], the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors [there is] safety.

I find no mention of only men here.

Pro 15:22Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.

I find no mention of only men here.


Pro 24:6For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors [there is] safety.

I find no mention of only men here.

Did Paul mean something ONLY in the order of service to mean only men or did he possibly change the meanings of Proverbs???

I rather believe that counsel can come from both genders, BUT! when it comes to filling the pulpit preaching the word of God, MEN! and ONLY men!raying:

Sal, I've never referred to her teaching as "preaching." When it comes to teaching doctrine, I am particular about who does it in a public setting. Privately, I'd be a fool not to listen to ladies like Mrs. Jane Hollowood, Beneth Jones, the late Mrs. Thelma Cedarholm, et al on doctrinal matters. But privately is different from a public meeting called specificly to listen to Mrs. Ludwig-Ripplinger.
You probably consider me being particular about Bibliology. However, back in '81 the Bibliology section of my ordination statement of faith was the one I had to take the most care in crafting.
