Q.A. Quizzes to a Street Preacher: Hell (eBook)

Q. A. Quizzes to a Street Preacher is a series of pocket-sized booklets perfect for street evangelization and rapid replies to questions about the Catholic Faith. Written by Fr. Leslie Rumble and Fr. Charles Carty, pioneers in modern evangelization methods in the first half of the 20th century, these pamphlets exude the concise and pithy wisdom of two experts in the field of convert-making. Comprising 32 pages each, these booklets are brief, systematic, economically worded, and right to the point. Subjects covered are the Bible, Purgatory, Indulgences, Confession, Marriage, Hell, Birth Prevention, the Eucharist, the True Church, and Virgin and Statue Worship. In Q. A. Hell, find answers to 67 questions on hell. One of the most misunderstood and oft-derided elements of Christian truth, hell is both certainly real and most likely not empty (if we are to take at face value what Our Lord Himself said about it in Scripture). These questions and answers cover the believability of Hell, the nature of its fires, how hell does not contravene God's mercy, why it is in fact ultimately a manifestation of His mercy, and much else. Do not be fooled by the ways of the world; judgment is indeed eternal, and it is all down to our own decisions. Sometimes the best way for us to evangelize is to argue reasonably about what awaits those who do not accept the Gospel; this booklet will provide ample support in that endeavor.

Leslie Audoen Rumble, known as "Fr. Rumble," was a priest and apologist from New South Wales, Australia. Born in 1892, he grew up in an Anglican family, but he converted to the Catholic Church. In 1924, he was ordained a priest for the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart. He became famous for providing radio answers to questions about Catholicism broadcasted all over Australia and New Zealand. He also founded Radio Replies Press with Fr. Charles Mortimer Carty, an American priest from St. Paul, Minnesota, who had been performing a similar radio-apologetics program, the Catholic Radio Hour, as well as a street-preaching campaign, in the United States. (Fr. Carty was also known as a biographer of Padre Pio.) Fr. Carty spearheaded the American publishing operation, and the two priests became excellent "collaborators in the truth." Their work survives to this day as a testament to their zeal for apologetics and evangelization.
