拉克曼以他的立场而闻名，他认为钦定版圣经构成了“高等启示”，并且是上帝在英语中的最终的、保存的话语。这种观点常常被其反对者称为“拉克曼主义”；他的追随者则被称为“拉克曼派”。

生平

1944年，拉克曼以二等陆军中尉的身份入伍美军，并自愿在日本的占领军中服役。在那里，拉克曼研究了禅宗佛教，并谈到了"禅宗称之为三摩地的涅槃体验，即精神与身体的脱离"。拉克曼回到美国时"心神不宁，充满了恶魔"。他白天做唱片骑师和广播员，晚上在各种乐队中打鼓。在他开始听到声音后[1] ，他与一位耶稣会神父会面，探讨加入罗马天主教。1949年3月14日，拉克曼与传道者休·派尔交谈后接受了耶稣基督。拉克曼就读于鲍勃·琼斯大学，在那里他获得了宗教学硕士学位和博士学位。

拉克曼结过三次婚，前两次婚姻都以离婚告终[2] 。他的第一任妻子曾控告他实施家庭暴力[3]。离婚后，他娶了自己一个学生的前妻[4]。他的再婚引发了教会的分裂，因为很多人认为他已经不适合作牧师[5]。但后来，他又与第二任妻子离婚，之后娶了一个比自己小27岁的女子为妻[6]。关于离婚，他把责任都推给前妻，称是她们离弃了他[7]。

信念和观点

编辑

拉克曼相信“唯钦定本主义”(KJV Onlyism)[8] 。他认为钦定本提供了超越原文（希腊文）的"高等启示"，因此人们可以根据钦定本修正原文圣经；任何不基于钦定本圣经的人都是异端，不仅会失去他们的"见证"和"事工"，甚至可能失去生命[9]（p. 132） 。

拉克曼专断地认为钦定版依据的公认文本是惟一正确的文本，大肆攻击现代版本依据的亚历山大文本，将那些支持后者的人称为"亚历山大教派"[10] 。拉克曼还写道，七十士译本是公元三世纪"亚历山大教派"在教父奥利金的领导下，为了颠覆人们对圣经的信仰而制造的骗局[11]。

许多支持圣经无误论的人，包括《芝加哥关于圣经无误论的声明》的签署者，强烈反对拉克曼的立场。惟独钦定版运动中也有人反对他，指出"他的著作如此尖酸刻薄，如此冒犯人，如此恶劣，以至于整个运动都蒙上了他的那种攻击性和咄咄逼人的色彩"[12]。

拉克曼的出版社的网站指出，尽管有些人称他的著作为"恶劣的"，"我们却将它们称为‘带有态度的真理’"[13] 。根据Beacham和Bauder的说法，"毫无疑问，拉克曼是惟独钦定版运动中最尖酸刻薄和恶劣的人"[14] 。詹姆斯·怀特在他的书《惟独钦定版的争议》中说，称拉克曼为尖酸刻薄都显得过于温和，称其为狂妄和夸大其词稍微准确一些。他的书几乎每一页都有连续的谩骂。然而，他的自负式自信却吸引了许多人的追随[15]。拉克曼自己说[16]：

神召我坐在这台打字机前，向1900年至1990年的保守派和基要派的领军学者们倾倒醋、酸、硝酸、清洁液。（原文如此）

拉克曼曾说过，如果三K党不反犹太人，他会加入三K党，因为他同意"他们说的一切话"[17]。

  2. ^ By his own admission, Ruckman's earlier family life was turbulent: "I have had two wives desert me after fifteen years of marriage… I have been in court custody cases where seven children's futures were held in the balance; in situations where Gospel articles were being torn out of typewriters, Biblical artwork torn off the easels, women trying to throw themselves out of cars at fifty m.p.h., mailing wedding rings back in the middle of revival services, cutting their wrists, threatening to leave if I did not give my church to their kinfolk; deacons threatening to burn down my house and beat me up; children in split custody between two domiciles two hundred miles apart, and knock-down, drag-out arguments in the home sometimes running as long as three days."

This small tractus was a very abbreviated survey of the work done by the Scholars’ Union in the Alexandrian Cult, since the days of Origen, as they attempted to rid the world, first, of the correct Old Latin and Old Syrian texts... The belief in a pre-Christian LXX is the most extreme and radical demonstration of Christian deceit and scholarly FRAUD to be found in the annals of church history.
