A hymn written by a convert to Rome for the Catholic martyrs of England became the anthem of Protestant loyalty to inherited belief, and it travels that easily because it names no doctrine at all. Paul had a faith of his fathers too. He was exceedingly zealous of it, and he counted the whole inheritance loss.

Believers ache for a past that was more moral and more Christian, and grieve a covenant they believe the nation broke. But the remembered age never existed as remembered, no Gentile nation was ever in covenant with God, and Scripture rebukes the longing itself. A look at nostalgia, the Christian nation, and the post God actually gave you.

Rome claims to follow Christ, Peter, and Paul — and by right division it follows none of the three. A stand-alone study of the papacy, the Mass, Mary, purgatory, confession, and tradition, showing that Rome, the Eastern churches, and Rome's Reformation daughters share one ancient error: works added to the finished work of Christ.

How the post-apostolic church came to keep the wrong apostle — exalting Peter, whom Scripture never made its head, while forsaking Paul. Two departures, the rise of the apostate church, what became of Israel's believing remnant, and the test that still exposes another gospel.

The departure from Paul's distinct grace gospel began even during his own ministry. This article examines the historical drift away from the sound words committed to Paul and why his thirteen epistles remain the doctrinal standard for the Body of Christ in this present dispensation of grace.

Claiming promises God never made to the Body of Christ is feigned faith — pretense rather than genuine trust in the rightly divided word. This article shows what real faith looks like under grace and why applying Israel's conditional promises to yourself misrepresents God and produces vain jangling.
