Is your belief that Pearl teaches "a selective form of sinless perfection" based on what someone else said or did you actually read his material and listen to his Bible studies and come to that conclusion?

I've said before and I'll say again I've never met or listened to anyone that I agreed with everything they said whether it be Pearl, Ruckman, Cloud or anyone else. Having said that I've read Pearl's commentary on chapters 1 through 8 of Romans and it's the absolute best I've seen (unless you're into reformed theology) and I've listened to several of his Bible studies on various books of the Bible and he does not teach any form of sinless perfection regardless of what David Cloud says. He's KJV only, dispensational and pretty much reflects what folks like Ruckman teaches in his Bible studies. Pearl does take a pretty hard stance against pornogrpahy. He regularly teaches a Bible study at a prison so he sees first hand the results of porno. I don't generally defend folks, but anyone who takes a stand for the KJV (Pearl, Ruckman, Cloud) I will put in t a good word for them.

Like I said before I have Ruckman's "Kingdom of God vs Kingdom of Heaven" book and its good, but Pearl's "Eight Kingdoms" is more indepth and has more scriptural references.
