Patristic Quote of the Day

The first trumpet of the [church’s] preaching reveals the universal destruction of the impious by fire and hail… The foretelling of these plagues is rightly compared with a trumpet, which is the signal for battle. For, the Scripture says, ‘Lift up your voice as a trumpet; declare to my people their transgressions.’—The Venerable Bede on Rev. 8:7
