Whats Wrong With Doug Wilson?

I got asked this question so many times, 'what's wrong with Doug Wilson?' that I decided to make a video and accompanying pdf. You can read the pdf here www.dropbox.com/s/9xcy3xksu45...

[@laurensheldrake2902]

I like the way you presented this - you maintained humility and mercy while calling out error. Thanks for presenting your research - this is helpful.

[@charleshowarth8461]

Thanks. Whoever becomes popular or trendy look out.

[@gracechapel2464]

If you want to know what's wrong with Doug Wilson I would suggest reading what he actually says and writes and not what others say about him. Then make up your own mind.

[@amcenroe8206]

I have. That’s why I have a problem with him.

[@gracechapel2464]

@@amcenroe8206 It’s hard to have a discussion in KZbin comments but is there something in particular you could point to?

[@chrisschey7818]

Duncan, when you get clear spiritual warning from within, you should follow it. You gave your decision on what is unbiblical without having the courage to express it or back it up publicly. Doug Wilson has both the knowledge & courage to do so. All respect to him & all praise to God.

[@CloverPickingHarp]

Bro if you're going to make a video about this, have the confidence of your convictions and lay it out. Bad form.

[@stephaniew.9366]

Beloved, the Word instructs us that not many should become teachers as they will be held more accountable for what they teach and I hope he is aware of this. We also should be aware that the Word teaches us to focus on Christ and what is pure, true, lovely, praiseworthy etc, so that our minds and hearts are not being polluted by worldly thoughts and images. Easier said than done, I know but the Bride of Christ is sanctified by the Holy Spirit and is being regenerated every day into the likeness of our Lord Jesus Christ and so we should be careful what we read, watch and listen to. God bless you in the Name of Jesus. Amen

Hey Brother, I've just been reading the PDF you refer to and I think it would be charitable on your part if you also linked Doug's responses to these allegations. It would both be fair and brotherly to let him explain his actions and to let readers hear the other side of the story. In saying that, I do agree that some of the quotes within the PDF are concerning. However, I would also say you jump to a few uncharitable and frankly unfair conclusions from his statements, twisting his words. For example, at the end of the PDF you claim Doug "legitimises mistreating black and brown people" where did that come from? Nothing that you showed in the PDF can show that Doug supports that. Thus brother, I would encourage you to edit the PDF to only reflect what he says, not your conclusions or what you think others could potentially do with his words, merely what he said and what he means by it. Yours sincerely, Tom

[@ExaminingMoscow]

Doug Wilson has a lot of words on his side compared to actual documentation and primary source evidence on the other side. No reason to give Wilson’s gaslighting arguments a forum.

[@USMC_Ministries]

It’s probably not going to happen. The anti-Doug Wilson crowd hate him because they are incapable of forgiving like he does… and like Christ commands… they’ve got a long way to go to be like Christ - or… become Christians, if they aren’t yet.

[@Jordanazrei4]

Weak

[@user-vl2mj1jo3g]

Going through the PDF and came to the section on FV in which you say you wouldn't normally quote Scott Clark. Why not?

[@thatonethumb6292]

Does anyone have a link to a resource that explains what federal vision is, I’ve heard people complain about that in regards to Doug but I’ve not been able to find a good explanation of what it is.

[@Bewareofthewolves]

Quite a few reformed authors have written against it. Guy Prentiss Waters wrote a book on the Federal Vision a number of years ago. Most, if not all, major Reformed denominations in the US have written reports pointing out its errors.

[@SOWWHATAPOLOGETICS]

The Federal Vision takes the Westminster Confession Of Faith and completely dismantles it. They change the meaning of words like Faith, obedience, they collapse the terms law and gospel and they deny God's sovereignty over salvation making salvation contigent upon good works. They are Roman Catholic, Arminian and Pelagian but worse because they lie and pretend to be confessionally reformed.

[@christophersmith7412]

Doug Wilson writes in his blog how child molesters deserve to be executed, but whenever there are child molesters found in his church, he always defends them, asks the judge for leniency and bullies the victim. Doug Wilson has had at least 3 child molesters in his church: 1 man who was so perverse he was sexually aroused by his own infant son. 1 man who was grooming an underage girl for sex. 1 man who had saved images of child sex abuse on his phone/computer. He was an elder in the church. All evidence documented online including court records. There is no excuse for listening to anything Doug Wilson has to say. Know him by his fruit.

[@jameselliott1491]

Yeah he seems to forgive a lot.

[@thatonethumb6292]

His fruits are many men coming to the church or back to the church because they see that Christianity doesn’t have to be the weak effeminate version so often presented today. In regards to the predators I’ve only heard of the one case, and it was a man who repented and came to Christ. What happened to the elder that you mentioned? Because if he wasn’t forced out of leadership and expelled from the church than that would certainly be an issue

[@USMC_Ministries]

If you chose not to listen to someone because of sin in their life, you wouldn’t be able to listen to anyone… including yourself! Just sayin’

[@tynj4173]

Direct us where to look please. I know youtube doesn’t allow links but if you can’t at least point to the records your claims have no merit. If you’re correct then he should be ashamed

[@kaioken654]

I would be more worried about his false gospel

[@anthonyj.castellitto9103]

RIDE SALLY RIDE “It's two decades in the future, and a Christian college student named Ace Hartwick has just destroyed his neighbor's so-called "wife"-actually a sexbot named Sally-in a trash compactor. Soon, Ace will be on trial for murder. Unfortunately for Ace, everyone despises his kind of "radical" Christianity, and, in the fragile America of the future, all the juries are fixed. A satirical novel from an award-winning pastor about love, the crack-up of the U.S.A., and refusing to back down when the whole world calls you crazy. Pastor Douglas Wilson continues his cheerful assault on stupidity with this provocative new satirical novel.” Very subtle… I think I’ll pass. He ‘s like the Reformed version of Jack Chick.

[@tomdownunder749]

To be fair, this is not Doug supporting 'sex robots' this is a novel that is showing the ridiculousness of where our culture is going as it continues in its sexual perversity and degradation. You are right, it isn't subtle, it's a big neon sign pointing to the clown world we're rapidly approaching. I would argue that this particular book is not a reason to stay away from Doug, other things are debatable, but this I believe is not wrong.

[@David-ru3km]

He used the bad words.

[@USMC_Ministries]

😂😂😂

[@thereisnopandemic]

Before I invest my time on what you speak of, which Christian creeds and confessions you adhere by? Besides the Holy Scriptures and which eldership and Church denomination holds you accountable for your teachings?

[@davidkunze2770]

How much of the Bible itself would you want to outlaw?

[@phazon6179]

Doug is solid. Sure, not agreeing in everything he says as anyone should. He's got rough edges at times. But overall, the message is very good. (read the whole PDF btw)

[@RF-ec5bd]

He lets his groom and rape. Doug loves to fight. Doug should not be a Pastor and should be sued.

[@USMC_Ministries]

Solid response!

[@gigiis526]

A solid wolf that is.

[@ksr622002]

Doug is a solid heretic.

[@amichiganblackman3200]

Not saying he's a heretic, but Definitely not "solid"

[@arcticraven2462]

You have an email address? Thanks

He has addressed all of these on his site

Abusers never fail to twist scripture to keep abusing. In other news, water is wet.

[@dannyb.8615]

Amen brother

[@marygeorge275]

D Wilson is..Twisting the the absolute truth for the personal and selfish means.. Such people need deliverance and not church audience. This is called hight of "BLASFEMY".. Only Spirit of God (Holy Spirit) can deliver him from it. ✝️✝️✝️✝️....

Who is Doug Wilson?

Be happy you don't know.

[@amcenroe8206]

🤣 amen!

[@carlanderson8556]

Nice twisting. I know Doug personally and also was personally involved in the Sitler case. Perhaps you contact Doug and get the facts. That I believe would be what a fellow brother would do.

[@laurenshannon2703]

Absolutely right.

[@amichiganblackman3200]

So every time there's a scandal in a church, every Christian on Earth is obligated to personally reach out to that person or they can't form an opinion on it?

[@FITSOZOLIFE]

This guy is an absolute tool- he’s a finger to the church. He said he can’t make the video but he keeps churning out the bull$hit.

[@delilahhart4398]

Anyone who welcomed Sitler back into the fold failed his victims, and anyone who encouraged his marriage also failed the son he subsequently fathered and then abused.

[@delilahhart4398]

Sitler admitted to touching his own son in a sexual manner. That's a fact!

[@salvadaXgracia]

Thanks for exposing this man. It's so sad how many people think he's great and he is leading people away from the true loving character of the Lord.

[@jameselliott1491]

Debate the man. Thats the problem when debating someone like DW. He has facts. Most just have opinions.

[@Victory7777]

I am so glad for your insight. I was wondering if you could have a chat with the Spirit of Christ and get him to clean up his act as well. Were you aware he said "There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses." Ezekiel 23:20 I'm mean really, the Spirit of Christ needed to be far more Christ like.

[@cordsman]

So are you saying that God’s word may as well have said “cunt” instead of genitals? Or is there a distinction there?

[@salvadaXgracia]

It's all about the context.

[@JonathanGrandt]

That is a disturbingly long PDF.

[@ksr622002]

Chuck O'Neal, a pastor in Oregon is speaking out LOUDLY against Doug Wilson, calling him a perverse heretic, my pastor has also spoken out against him, calling him a wolf. Many more need to recognize who this man is..

Sooooo….. you showed no proof. You just “don’t like him”…. Go pout then baby special boy

If Doug Wilson produces fans that speak to fellow believers like you do, that speaks volumes about him as well. Wisdom is known by her children.

[@ForwardTalk]

This is a bad review.

[@philipmurray9796]

Doug Wilson is one of the great men of our day. Some just don't know it yet.

[@amichiganblackman3200]

Depends on what you close your eyes to.

[@MicahBBurke]

Don't quote RHE on anything, seriously, this damages any testimony you've said.

[@johornbuckle5272]

Doug Wilson is a calvinist and is postmillennial. He is also theonomic. I do not agree with him on these important subjects. I have listened to many of his sermons and critiques and find him to orthodox and extremely erudite. This criticism is undignified and gossipy

[@cebenezer]

Judging people who seek to be teachers by the contents of what they've actually said and published is both correct and the diametric opposite of gossip.

[@seaducktraveler]

Dougie made up his own congregation, has loyalists followers who are ok w pedophiles in the church, raping wives, and not reporting child molestation. Check your definition of "gossip". He is not biblical, he is a false prophet, and should be rebuked at every turn. Get the net dude. Unless you are apart of his cult, just raise your hand and say so. 👎👎👎

[@Victory7777]

Indeed you are raising false allegations out of context. And, you clearly hate the tone of scripture...God hates false accusers...

[@samgott8689]

I mean, Federal Vision, or Covenantal Nomism, or whatever phrase he likes to use to avoid affirming Federal Vision, is pretty damned heterodox. So is his interpretation of the Great Commission and his views on Church-State relationships. Even guys he and the Apologia crew love to point to as their historic forerunners - Calvin, Samuel Rutherford and the Puritans, etc - theocrats though they were, were all Two Kingdom’s guys who rejected the notion of Theonomy and who’s postmillennialism was closer to todays Amilennialism than Wilson’s “convert the culture”Postmill. Wilson’s pretty heterodox on a whole lot of things, and has rather conveniently put himself in a position that’s beyond any ecclesiastical discipline or correction. He’s not wrong about everything, but there’s a whole lot of other guys that you’d be better off going to on the issues he’s right about

[@androidr.8470]

The judaizers only wanted that snip, they had everything else right and yet Paul condemned them. Pick your side.
