Early Angelic History
Book: Archangels: The Fall Volume One by Theodore Beale & Patrick Scott, Cahaba Productions, 2005
Target Audience: Boys 10-14
Subjects: Spiritual Warfare
Summary: What happened in the spiritual realm before the earth was created? This is the story of the Angels, the Creation of the universe, and of the origins of Satan. In the angelic realm, one of God’s archangels, Lucifer determines to stand on the altar reserved for worship of the Most High God. This one act forces all angels to line up on one of two battle lines and propels the heavenly realm into a devastating war lasting throughout all of time.
Notes: Christians who are lovers of Graphic Novels have been waiting for this one for a long time. The spiritual beings portrayed in this comic are awe-inspiring! After reading this, a person probably won’t think of angels as cute little kids with fluffy wings sitting on fluffy clouds. These are warriors, with bodies and weapons to match. The story line draws from various Biblical passages and ties them together into a familiar storyline about Lucifer’s fall. It is told as a first-angel account with some embellishments, but if it gets kids looking for the spots in the Bible we get these ideas, I’m all in favor of it.
