1Ki 18:21, And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “HOW LONG WILL YOU FALTER BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS? IF THE LORD IS GOD, FOLLOW HIM; BUT IF BAAL, FOLLOW HIM.”…
A TEST TO SEE WHO IS GOD; NEVER MIND THE RICH HISTORY OF GOD’S WORK WITH ISRAEL? HOW THE LORD FEED ISRAEL FOR 40 YEARS, THE CROSSING OF THE RED SEA, THE CROSSING OF THE JORDAN YET, THEY NEED A TEST? A WICKED GENERATION!
Mat 12:39, BUT HE ANSWERED AND SAID TO THEM, “AN EVIL AND ADULTEROUS GENERATION SEEKS AFTER A SIGN, AND NO SIGN WILL BE GIVEN TO IT EXCEPT THE SIGN OF THE PROPHET JONAH.
1Ki 18:22, Then Elijah said to the people, “I ALONE am left a prophet of the LORD; BUT BAAL’S PROPHETS ARE FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY MEN.
One against 450 baal worshippers! IF GOD IS WITH US WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?
1Ki 18:26, … and called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying, “O Baal, hear us!” BUT THERE WAS NO VOICE; NO ONE ANSWERED…
Hab 2:18, “What profit is the image, that its maker should carve it, The molded image, a teacher of lies, That the maker of its mold should trust in it, To make mute idols?
Those who make them are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them (Psa 115:8). IF YOU PLACE YOUR TRUST IN ANYTHING OTHER THAN GOD ALONE THEN YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY DEAD! TRUST IN THE LORD FOR HE IS GOD!
