BBB:Ruckman writes Curtis Hudson on the KJV

   At the risk of boring our readers, we present the close-out of the
correspondence between the editor of The Sword of the Lord and a born
again, saved, soul winning, Bible believing, once married, pastor in
Port Orchard, Washington. The background of the controversy is simple.
Curtis Hutson, in order to pass off as a scholar, like his predecessor,
John R. Rice, has pulled as close as he can to Bob Jones University to
take on a cultured, intellectual appearance. They have been more than
happy to draw nigh to him to take advantage of his newspaper so they
could pass off as Bible believing, evangelistic people, which they are
not. The following was the last thing sent to the editor of The
Penknife Of The Lord before he signed off the air.

   "Dear Brother Hutson, I have waited patiently for you to write me
the answers that would restore the respect I once had for your
ministry, but evidently you have no answers. It is obvious you have
lied about your supposed stand on `only the King James Version' to
deceive people who haven't read your books. Since you can't handle the
material I've confronted you with, I am left with only one conclusion:
You're as crooked as a dog's hind leg. Dr. Ruckman has described your
crowd this way: `They are so crooked they could fall through a barrel
of fish hooks without getting stuck!' Amen and Amen.

   "After saying the King James Bible was the only `Bible' you have
ever used, you refuse to define what you mean by a `Bible.' Then in the
September 15, 1989, Sword you `...hesitate to quote another
translation....' The reason you said you hesitated was because there is
a controversy over translations. Since when is the presence of
controversy a reason to hesitate addressing an issue? There is a
controversy over the SBC, Jack Hyles, Jerry Falwell, Tim Lee, the
Charismatic movement, yet you do not hesitate to comment on these
things.

   "And what is your alibi for using another translation like the
corrupt ASV? Your alibi is the same alibi that many people use to
excuse their own sin: `So-and-So does it, therefore so can I.' In your
case, it goes like this: `Since my beloved predecessor, Dr. John Rice,
used the ASV, then so can I.'

   "This will be my last letter, until you face up to your lies. I
can't respect a pathological liar. I am praying for you, Al Hughes."

   There are many people praying for Curtis Hutson, but unfortunately
the ones that are praying for him are the ones who believe the Bible
that he doesn't believe. Curtis Hutson has already stated that "the
Bible" is an unnamed copy of a series of Greek manuscripts known as the
Textus Receptus, WHICH HE DOES NOT PREACH.
