The Law of Moses, the Gospel, and Antinomianism: A Response to R. L. Solberg

The Law of Moses, the Gospel, and Antinomianism: A Response to R. L. Solberg

R. L. Solberg, an outspoken critic of Pronomian (pro-Law) theology, made a video where he argued that we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus and the Law of Moses at the same time. I responded to that video and demonstrated why none of Solberg’s arguments prove his case. Solberg didn’t like my video and made another video objecting to my critiques. This video is my response to his response.

Can we follow the Gospel of Jesus AND the Law of Moses at the same time?

Can we follow the Gospel of Jesus AND the Law of Moses at the same time?

The Divine Son: Exploring the Messiah's Deity in Hebrews 1

The Divine Son: Exploring the Messiah's Deity in Hebrews 1

Is the Messiah God? The first chapter of Hebrews presents compelling evidence that he is. In this chapter, the author highlights the Son’s role as the creator and sustainer of the universe, emphasizes the Son’s divine essence, proclaims that the Son is worthy of the worship that belongs only to God, and explicitly identifies the Son as “God” and “Lord/YHWH.” In order to demonstrate each of these points, this video conducts a detailed exegesis of Hebrews 1 and answers objections from unitarians.

Sean Griffin did not like this video and made a three-hour response to it. This is my response to his response. (Don't worry—it is much shorter than Sean's.)

The Truth About the Book of Jubilees

The Truth About the Book of Jubilees

Jubilees is a fascinating book that provides a window into the world of Second Temple Judaism. However, instead of appreciating it for what it is, a few teachers on the Internet exaggerate its significance and consider it to be inspired Scripture. This video provides an overview of the book of Jubilees and explains why it is not Scripture.

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.

Matters of Opinion (Romans 14)

Matters of Opinion (Romans 14)

In Romans 14, Paul admonishes his readers not to pass judgment on one another over days and foods. Based on this chapter of Scripture, many believe Paul teaches that it doesn't matter whether or not believers observe the commanded holy days and dietary laws in the Torah. But is that really what Romans 14 teaches?

The Sabbath: A Day of Healing

The Sabbath: A Day of Healing

The gospels record several instances of Yeshua healing people on the Sabbath. Some Christian teachers have interpreted these Sabbath healings as evidence that Yeshua came to do away with the Sabbath. In reality, Yeshua's Sabbath healings demonstrate the proper way to keep the Sabbath.

Lord of the Sabbath (Matthew 12:1-8; Mark 2:23-28; Luke 6:1-5)

Did the disciples of Messiah break the Sabbath when they plucked grains? Did Messiah indicate that the Sabbath no longer mattered? Could he do whatever he wanted on the Sabbath because he was lord of the Sabbath as declared in the Matthew 12:1-8, Mark 2:23-28, and Luke 6:1-5 accounts?

Testing King James Onlyism

Testing King James Onlyism

Some people believe that the KJV is without error and the only English Bible version people should use. Some "KJV-Onlyists" go so far as to claim that other English Bible versions are deliberate attempts to deceive the masses and that Christians who prefer other versions might not even be saved. This teaching addresses these claims.

Monogamy: God's Creational Marriage Ideal

Monogamy: God's Creational Marriage Ideal

One fundamental theological principle revealed in the Genesis creation accounts is that marriage, as God intended it, is to be monogamous. In this video, we demonstrate how the Bible upholds this marital form as the ideal standard. Afterward, we address a polygamy advocate's objections to this biblical concept.

Does Leviticus 18:18 Prohibit Polygamy?

Does Leviticus 18:18 Prohibit Polygamy?

Numerous scholars have argued that Leviticus 18:18 prohibits not just sororal polygyny (a polygamous marriage between a man and two women who are sisters) but polygamy generally. In this video, we unpack the historical and textual evidence that supports this view. We also address a polygamy advocate's objections to this interpretation.
