  Sep 25, 202636 min

  Sep 11, 202627 min

  Send us Fan Mail What is the Feast of Trumpets, and what does it mean for Christians today? In this biblical primer, Dr. R. L. Solberg explores Yom Teruah from its origins in Leviticus 23 and Numbers 29 through its later development into Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.

  Did We Get the Church Wrong? Testing First Fruits of Zion

  Aug 24, 202640 min

  Send us Fan Mail Did the modern Christian church get ecclesiology wrong? First Fruits of Zion (FFOZ) argues that our modern concept of the church does not accurately reflect the biblical *ekklesia*. Instead, they propose what they call a“proleptic radial ecclesiology”—a Messiah-centered, Jewish-centered model in which priests and Levites, Israel, and the Gentile nations occupy distinct positions within the people of God. Dr. R. L. Solberg examines FFOZ’s proposed ecclesiology and tests it against Scripture. What does the New Testament actually teach about the structure of the church? Did the apostles organize Jewish and Gentile believers according to the pattern given to Israel under the Sinai covenant? What happened to the Old Testament system of proximity to God’s holiness under the New Covenant? And does FFOZ’s model risk rebuilding distinctions between Jews and Gentiles that Christ tore down? We’ll first examine FFOZ’s position on its own terms and make sure we understand it accurately. Then we’ll compare that framework with the ecclesiology established by Jesus and the apostles, including the New Testament teaching on **elders, overseers, deacons, the priesthood of believers, Jew and Gentile, the “one new man,” and our direct access to God through Christ**. This is not an argument that everything taught by First Fruits of Zion is false. Rather, it is an examination of a foundational theological framework that can influence how Christians understand **Israel, the Church, Torah, the New Covenant, and the relationship between Jewish and Gentile believers**.

  Live Debate on Acts 15 and the Law of Moses (Dr. Solberg and Wilber)

  Aug 3, 20261h 26m

  Send us Fan Mail Dr. R. L. Solberg and David Wilber debated Acts 15 and one of the most important questions in Christian theology: Did the apostle's decision at the Jerusalem Council require Gentile believers to keep the Law of Moses? Wilber argues in the affirmative, Solberg in the negative. Both participants present their cases in a semi-formal and civil debate format. The goal isn't to "score points" but to help believers understand Acts 15 by hearing both sides presented fairly. #livestream #debate #apologetics What if Christmas felt sacred again?
