SERMONS & VIDEOS BY DAVID WILBER
Understanding Submission in Marriage (Ephesians 5)
“Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord” (Ephesians 5:22). If you just read that verse out loud, then you might hear a faint, high-pitched noise. That sound is every feminist worldwide shrieking about how Christianity oppresses women. But is this instruction in Ephesians really oppressive toward women?
Studies in Psalms: The Way of the Righteous (Psalm 1)
Psalm 1 describes two paths or "ways" of living. There is the way of the righteous and the way of the wicked. One way leads to blessing, and the other to destruction. What does it mean to walk the way of the righteous?
Fleeing on the Sabbath (Matthew 24:20)
In Matthew 24:20, Yeshua’s admonished his followers in Jerusalem and Judea to pray that they wouldn’t have to flee in winter or on the Sabbath during the coming Roman war. Why did Yeshua tell his followers to pray that they wouldn’t have to flee on the Sabbath? What might be some implications of this instruction?
Jesus Saved Israel Out of Egypt (Jude 5)
Did Jesus exist before he was conceived in Mary’s womb? This video looks at a passage from Jude that may shed some light on that question.
Honor Your Elders (Leviticus 19:32)
Scripture says to honor your elders in Leviticus 19:32 and shows us how to do so. How did the commandment apply in the ancient culture in which it was given? How does it apply today?
A Shadow of Things to Come (Colossians 2:16-17)
Does Paul teach that God's laws about the Sabbath, festivals, and foods have become irrelevant to believers in the Messiah? Many have said yes, citing Colossians 2:16-17 as proof. Let's consider this passage.
Life in Exile: Born Again to a Living Hope (1 Peter 1:3-12)
In this video, as we continue our study through 1 Peter, we will learn about how we’ve been “born again” into God’s family through the resurrection of the Messiah. As members of God’s family, we have a living hope of a new world to come when Yeshua returns to set up his kingdom.

Jeromy of Lantern Media & Ministry interviews David Wilber about the importance of apologetics.
Life in Exile: Introduction to 1 Peter (1 Peter 1:1-2)

Rejoice Always! Give Thanks in ALL Circumstances!
In this teaching on the Torah Portion Beha’alotcha, we look at what the Bible says about gratitude.
Making Sense of Evil and Suffering
How do we reconcile God's goodness with the problem of evil and suffering?
Like the Days of Noah

Controversy Corner: Answering Objections from Pete Rambo
David Wilber speaks to author and theologian, J. K. McKee, about some of the criticisms they've received from blogger Pete Rambo on the topic of biblical egalitarianism.
Hope in the Midst of Exile
According to the apostle Peter, followers of Yeshua are living in a type of exile, facing difficult trials and persecution. And yet he says we have been born into "a living hope" and possess a "joy that is inexpressible." How is that possible?
Can Women Speak in Church? (1 Corinthians 14:34-35)
Does Paul say women aren't allowed to talk in church? In this teaching, we look at 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and address some common objections from critics of the Bible.
How to Circumcise Your Heart
In Deuteronomy 10:16, Moses gives a peculiar commandment. He says, "Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no longer stubborn." What does this mean, and how do we do it? The apostle Paul reveals the answer.
Was Jesus a Historical Person?
Justin Best of the popular J. Breezy YouTube channel (formerly Christian Truthers) said he is “questioning the authenticity of the NT [New Testament] and the existence of a historical ‘Jesus’ character.” This video looks at and answers some of his claims.
Does God Exist? - The Moral Argument
Does God exist? The existence of objective moral values and duties helps us answer this question.
The Lord’s Day Part 2: Sabbath and Sunday in History
As we learned in the first part of this teaching, the Bible does not support replacing Sabbath observance with Sunday observance. So, how did this change occur? How did we get to where we are now, with most Christians not keeping the Sabbath on the seventh day? This teaching will attempt to answer that question.
