Chapter H1
Lucifer's Rebellion
The 40 TRUMPETS in Archives A,B,C,D are collections of edifying and informative essays of a general nature for Bible-believing Christians.
The Trumpets are intended for those who have completed the Age of Reason Bible study – those who already know and understand the material covered in AOR.
All essays contain the kind of Scripture-based material that glorifies God in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that feeds, encourages, and challenges Bible believers who have ears that hear and who appreciate and identify with the kind of straight-talking, unpretentious dialog that horrifies tradition-bound politically-correct parade-ground pewsters, preachers, and theologians. These essays are for you comrades whose very real faith in, and love and respect for the living God who reveals Himself via the inerrant, written, literal, living words in His Holy Bible make you increasingly aware of the fact that you’re members of an elite, very small and ever-shrinking army; you truly are strangers and pilgrims on the Earth who long for a better country, that is, an heavenly...and therefore God is not ashamed to be called your God.
You have three ways to read the Trumpets:
1. Individual archive on its own web page:
Each of the 4 Trumpet Archives (A,B,C,D) has its own easy-to-read web page for your convenience. Each of the 4 archive pages contains the ten trumpets in that archive.
