SERMONS & VIDEOS BY DAVID WILBER
Paul was not an antinomian!
Paul affirmed the Torah's enduring validity and expected his readers to abide by the Torah's commandments, which is not what we would expect if he were antinomian.
A Response to Dan McClellan on Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13
Recently, Dr. Dan McClellan responded to my video on Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13. Dan thinks these passages are ambiguous and that the firm conclusion of most scholars who think these passages are clear is misinformed and simply based on identity politics. Here is my response to his response.
Mark 7:1-23 Revisited: A Response to R. L. Solberg regarding the validity of the Torah's food laws
Recently, R. L. Solberg made a video responding to my video on Mark 7:1-23, where I argue that Jesus did not invalidate the Torah's dietary laws. Here is my response to his response.
Yes, Leviticus 18:22 prohibits Homosexual Behavior: Answering Objections from Progressive Christians
Progressive Christians, such as Rev. Brandan Robertson and others, insist that Leviticus 18:22 has been broadly misunderstood and that it does NOT in fact prohibit homosexual behavior. I address their objections in this video.
Caesar’s Messiah Refuted
Here are some reasons why the "Caesar's Messiah" book/documentary, which claims that Rome fabricated Jesus, should not be taken seriously by anyone.
Is the Mosaic Covenant Obsolete? (Hebrews 8:13)
We look at Hebrews 8:13. What is the relevance of the Mosaic covenant today?
R. H. Charles mistranslated 1 Enoch 71:14
There is confusion concerning the identity of the "Son of Man" figure in 1 Enoch 71:14. The Ethiopic text identifies this figure as Enoch, but the R. H. Charles translation reads differently because he purposely mistranslated it—which he admits!
Did Jesus reject the Torah's dietary laws? (Mark 7:1-23)
Did Jesus reject the Torah’s dietary laws? Many say that he did, citing Mark 7:1-23 as proof. In this video, I will explain the problems with the traditional interpretation of this passage and offer an alternative view that presents a more consistent and accurate portrayal of Jesus’s teaching.
When Does the Sabbath Begin?
There is good biblical and historical evidence that the Sabbath begins on Friday at sundown and ends on Saturday at sundown.
Answering Christopher Enoch’s Objections to Paul (Christian literature, Marcion, 2 Peter, etc.)
Christopher Enoch believes that Paul is a false apostle and claims that the earliest Christians rejected him while only heretics embraced him. He also says that 2 Peter is a forgery. This is my response.
Christopher Enoch is wrong about Paul (2 Timothy 1:15; Revelation 2:2)
In this video, I show how Christopher Enoch is twisting 2 Timothy 1:15 and Revelation 2:2 to support his idea that Paul is a false apostle.
Is the Sabbath just a matter of personal preference? (Colossians 2:16; Romans 14:5)
Dewayne Dunaway has argued that God's command to keep the Sabbath no longer applies to Christians, and whether or not we should keep the Sabbath is just a matter of personal preference. This is my response.
The Biblical Canon Was NOT Decided at the Council of Nicaea
It is commonly claimed that the canon was decided at the Council of Nicaea. This is my response.
Does Terminating a Pregnancy = Murder?
A popular TikToker by the name of Kristi Burke recently argued that abortion isn't murder, and she used some interesting analogies to make her case. This is my response.
Did God repeal the Sabbath in the New Testament? Responding to Pastor Bruce Mejia
Pastor Bruce Mejia of First Works Baptist Church made a short video on why he thinks Christians shouldn't keep the Sabbath. This is my response.
Pro-Abortion Argument Addressed: “You can’t oppose abortion unless you adopt every unwanted child!”
In this video, I address a TikToker's bad pro-abortion argument.
The Sabbath and the Death Penalty
In ancient Israel, breaking the Sabbath warranted the death penalty. Some have argued that Christians who believe in keeping the Sabbath today are being inconsistent by not enforcing the death penalty for Sabbath breakers. David Wilber addresses this objection.
The Case of the Slandered Bride (Deuteronomy 22:13-21)
Critics of Scripture often cite Deuteronomy 22:13-21 in support of their view that the Bible has immoral and misogynistic teachings. How do we understand this difficult text?
Matthew 5:18 and the Torah: A Response to R. L. Solberg
My friend R. L. (Rob) Solberg made a video on why he doesn't think Matthew 5:18 affirms the Torah's ongoing validity. This is my response.
James was not wrong. Matt McMillen is.
I response to Matt McMillen’s claims that the apostle James didn’t understand grace when he wrote his epistle.
