TESTING CHRISTIAN BELIEF

The Seven Pillars

How to Test What You Believe

Quoting a verse is only the beginning. This book offers seven tests for weighing Christian teaching against the whole of Scripture, God’s revealed character, sound reasoning, and the witness of the early church.

A worked example puts the method into practice. Readers are encouraged to distinguish established belief from open questions—and to hold a conclusion only as strongly as the evidence allows.

SALVATION & GOD’S JUSTICE

Every Verdict Just

The Doctrine of Accountability Threshold

What happens to those who never truly heard the gospel, or could not understand it? This book examines moral responsibility, human freedom, Christ’s descent to the dead, and salvation through Christ alone.

Nathan argues that God judges people according to the truth they received and their ability to respond. Drawing on Scripture and early Christian writings, he explores the implications for the unreached, infants, and people whose minds cannot make a moral choice.

Lives and Doctrines

The Early Church Fathers and How We Got What We Believe

Coming soon

Meet twenty-two early Christian thinkers and follow the debates that shaped Christian belief—from Scripture and the Trinity to grace, worship, and church authority. This history of doctrine traces the record through AD 500.

Nathan examines what endured, what changed, and which questions remained open. Biographies and source discussions help readers understand the people behind the doctrines and weigh their arguments in context.

BIBLE PROPHECY

The Tribulation Has Begun

The Final Seven Years

Nathan’s study of Daniel and Revelation argues that the final seven years began on October 13, 2025. It sets out his interpretation of the biblical sequence and its proposed connections to world events.

The book asks readers to examine the argument, its dated predictions, and the stated conditions under which those claims would fail. It also considers what this reading would mean for the church.
