SERMONS & VIDEOS BY DAVID WILBER
In Him You Have Been Filled (Colossians 2)
What does true fulfillment actually look like, and where is it found? In this message on Colossians 2, David Wilber unpacks Paul’s warning against deceptive philosophies that do not align with the Messiah. Instead of chasing ideas and practices that may appear wise but ultimately lack any power to restrain the flesh, Paul redirects our focus to the “fullness” believers already have in the Messiah. We also examine Paul’s instruction not to let anyone pass judgment “in matters of food and drink or with regard to a festival, a new moon, or a Sabbath.” Is Paul dismissing these Torah practices, or is there another interpretation?
Paul Does Not Condemn the Biblical Calendar in Galatians 4:10 | A Response to Steven Anderson
In Galatians 4:8–11, Paul rebukes the Galatians for observing “days and months and seasons and years.” What exactly does Paul mean by this phrase? The standard antinomian view, represented by Pastor Steven Anderson, is that this is a reference to the biblical calendar outlined in the Law of Moses. Thus, Paul is condemning the observance of the Sabbath and biblical festivals, or so the argument goes. But is that really what this passage teaches? In this video, we take a closer look at the context and historical background of Galatians 4:10. In contrast to Pastor Anderson, I contend that Paul is not chastising the Galatians for observing the biblical calendar, but for something entirely different.

How to Celebrate Passover
One of the most important annual events on the Hebrew calendar is the Passover meal and the seven-day Feast of Unleavened Bread.
