A few months ago, Prof. Solberg offered five reasons why we can’t follow the Law of Moses and the Gospel of Jesus at the same time. David Wilber later posted a response to that teaching. We invited him on this channel to have a friendly discussion on this issue, but he politely declined. So here is Prof. Solberg's rebuttal of David's claims. We first briefly correct the record regarding David’s inaccurate claims about Professor Solberg's position on the law, and then move on to the more important task of examining his David's claims against the New Testament.
