Q # 502447

Question:

Pastor, a few months back I sent to you a book named The King James Only Controversy (KJOC) written by James R. White. Have you had a chance to compare it with G. A. Riplinger’s book, New Age Bible Versions? If you have a chance, check out page 99 of the KJOC book where Mr. White has a quote by Riplinger (found in the January/February 1994 The End Times and Victorious Living newsletter) explaining her motivation in writing her book. The following is that same quote: “Daily during the six years needed for this investigation, the Lord miraculously brought the needed materials and resources – much like the ravens fed Elijah. Each discovery was not the result of effort on my part, but of the directed hand of God – so much so that I hesitated to even put my name on the book. Consequently, I used G.A. Riplinger, which signifies to me, God and Riplinger – God as author and Riplinger as secretary.” Pastor, do you believe that God is the “author” of Riplinger’s book as she stated? By the way you may want to listen to some of her debates with Mr. White. You can get these debates from his web site: www.aomin.org

Answer:

No, but I don’t that is what she is stating. Thanks for the input.
