Wink God Created the Darkness Called Night

There is nothing "sinful" about the night that God created. Gen 1 says that God called the darkness night and the light He called day. The verse referred to above that "in Him is no darkness at all" is refering to sin, it has nothing to do with day and night. By the way it is at night that we can see the glory of God declared by His awesome creation of the stars and planets!!

Also as to Ruckman, he just uses the Bible to make it say what he wants. Kind of like the Calvanists! Ruckman has been divorced and remarried so he takes the verse that says that a bishop is to be the husband of one wife to mean... one wife at a time! Check out his views on this. He believes that there was a gap between Gen 1:1 & 2 so he reads that into the Bible and uses other references to "prove" his point - such as Gen 1:28 replenish. In the Hebrew this means to fill or fulfill. The KJV translators used the best word in their day that meant this - replenish. Do some research on this and you will find it to be factual.

Ruckman has some good things to say but HE and his biased views get in the way many times. I am not a follwer of his but of Jesus Christ. There are many who follow this man and take his views as gospel, inventing gap theories, condoning divorce and remarriage and inspiring the translation of the KJV (which is God's PRESERVED Word in the english language but the translators were not inspired in the same way the original authors were - contrary to Ruckman).
