In our day, if we want to get an emergency alert, we send it over the airwaves to TV, radio, cell phones, social media, and so on. This has not always been the case. Many years ago, they used to ring the school or church bell to accomplish this. After that they used a siren. There have been many different methods to get people's attention in general, but the one we want to mention about is the trumpet. Throughout the scriptures there were several things that the trumpet was used. The last use that we will see will set in motion a series of messages for the coming weeks.
