Melee on the Mountain

I Kings 18:20-40

In this corner: 450 prophets of Baal

Early round confidence

Growing desperation

Ultimate disaster

In this corner: Elijah and…….. well, just

Elijah

Power of God not numbers

Confident prayer, not constant activity

In the crowd:

Convinced, but perhaps not converted

Not changed by judgement

Not changed by miracles

I Corinthians 1

And the winner is:

THE LAMB OF GOD WHO TAKES AWAY THE

SIN OF THE WORLD
