TAKING PRE-ORDERS FOR HARDCOVER FOR RALPH MARTIN'S NEW BOOK TO BE SHIPPED THIS SPRING!  Catholic teaching on the \"last things\" \u2014heaven, hell, death, and judgment\u2014as well as the Second Coming of Christ are essential tenets of our faith. But these truths have fallen out of fashion. And the consequences could not be more devastating. As Ralph Martin expertly exposes in The Coming Judgment, our eternal fate is at risk when we neglect to study God's revelation on judgment. Seeking to revive Catholic preaching and teaching on these matters of mercy, Martin compiles an astounding breadth of biblical evidence to remind us what Jesus really taught. The Coming Judgment, which surveys both the Old and New Testaments as well as other Catholic sources, frames our earthly decisions in light of their eternal consequences. We cannot abandon the Gospel message. The Coming Judgment powerfully amplifies it.   There is hardly a word in the New Testament that does not pulse with urgency, yet contemporary preaching and theology are often characterized by blandness and timidity. In The Coming Judgment Ralph Martin makes a powerful case that the element often missing from contemporary Christian life is an emphasis on the Last Things\u2014death, judgment, hell, and heaven. He persuasively shows that concern with the life to come permeates the New Testament and energized and motivated the saints. His is a message we need to hear, as important for the integrity of the Christian faith as it is unfashionable. We can ignore the Last Things, but we cannot avoid them.  Fr. Anthony R. Lusvardi, S.J.  Author of Baptism of Desire and Christian Salvation"}
