What People Are Saying
“Too many people, pastors included, put their heads in the sand when it comes to our ultimate destiny. Ralph Martin treats this often-neglected topic with his customary theological depth and popular accessibility.”
Most Rev. Anthony Fisher, OP
Archbishop of Sydney, Australia
“This work of theology functions as an excellent primer on the ‘last things’: the judgment that awaits us all at death, the hope of heaven, and the need to avoid eternal separation from God. The Coming Judgment is an excellent resource for seminarians, priests, and lay evangelists.”
Fr. Thomas Joseph White, OP
Rector, Angelicum, Rome
“The Coming Judgment is a timely book that prepares this generation for the ultimate and certain end of time. This is one book you will not regret reading, as it just might be the wake-up call that this generation desperately needs.”
Jeff Cavins
Creator of the Great Adventure Bible Studies
“People of God, pay attention! This book is important. Ralph Martin has been a faithful, courageous proclaimer of truth for decades, and The Coming Judgment is another example of this. In an age that mocks the realities of heaven, hell, and judgment, Dr. Martin brings a sobering, honest, and convicting light.”
Fr. Dave Pivonka, TOR
President, Franciscan University of Steubenville
“Against every contemporary form of embarrassment about or apostasy from the Gospel, Martin offers a clarion call to spread the Gospel, which is none other than the glorious good news of God’s radical mercy in Christ, if only we will repent and believe.”
Matthew Levering
James N. Jr. and Mary D. Perry Chair of Theology, Mundelein Seminary
“Drawing upon Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, the teaching of the saints and popes, the Catechism, and prophetic voices of recent centuries, Martin presents compelling arguments for an urgent contemporary proclamation of the evangelical and traditional teaching of the Church. His exposition of New Testament eschatology is thorough, nuanced, and informed by recent scholarship.”
Peter Williamson
Adam Cardinal Maida Chair of Sacred Scripture, Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Detroit
A Biblical Wake-Up Call
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.
We Cannot Abandon the Gospel Message
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.
