The Prophet’s Mantle #2 - The Showdown

Last week, Elijah came with a message of law and gospel to a people torn between two opinions. This week, he steps into a showdown—one prophet against 450. The odds? Terrible. But Elijah doesn’t flinch. He calls out false gods, drenches the altar, and simply prays. And God answers—with fire from heaven.

This Sunday, we’ll remember what Elijah knew: it’s not about our strength, but God’s. We don’t need to be impressive—we just need to show up, speak up, and let the fire fall. A sermon on 1 Kings 18:19-39
