That's why Ruckman is still one of my most FAVORITE preachers!

NOT ONE PERSON WAS EVER BORN THE WAY ADAM WAS MADE. THEREFORE YOU CAN NOT APPLY Gen. 2:7 TO ANY MAN OTHER THAN ADAM.
You can not apply Gen 2:7 to any man other than Adam. This is crazy, he is so far off base on this he is not even in the ball park. He is wrongly dividing the word of God on this issue.

Good point, there Bro. Atlas!
I have always been a fan of Dr. Ruckman, just like I'm a fan of Polycarp, Martin Luther, Billy Sunday, John R. Rice, Jack Hyles, etc. etc. That doesn't guarantee, however, that all of them rightly divides the word of truth all of the time.
One thing that I admire Ruckman is that he's always been Ruckman - he would never compromise truth for
fear of "the brethren". Now, again, he may be wrong in many issues and I've not always agreed with him, but (as Atlas says) he is "VERY PLAIN ON WHAT HE BELIEVES AND WHY".
I think the KEY here is RIGHT DIVISION.
