BEING LOYAL TO TRUE RELIGION LESSON TEXT—I Kings 18:20.21.30-39. MEMORY SELECTION—Hear me, O Lord, hear me. that this people may know that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.—I Kings 18:37. God meets the challenge of un belief and sin through the ages In Its different forms. In the days of Elijah it was the awful power of the false religion of Baal which threw its pall of heathenish im morality over the people. The prophet was God’s man of courage in A day, of unbelief and sin. To be courageous means to steadily meet perils of “which one is deeply conscious, doing so because of the caU Of duty. Courage holds a deeper and nobler meaning than bravery, carrying with it the idea of moral strength and, in the case of the Christian, faith in God as one devoted to his cause. The account of the conflict with the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel is a dramatic and instruc tive story. It shows that when God’* man meets God’s enemy there is an open, above-board, honest victory. I. Nothing Hidden (w. 20-21, 30). The appeal to Israel cut no cor ners and made no compromises. They must choose between the true God and the false Baal. They could not hold to both or halt between two opinions. The same is true today of our relationship to Jesus Christ. The direct challenge at Mount Carmel follows the same pattern of out-in-the-open dealing with the problem. Men whose deeds are evil love darkness rather than light. God does not have to work in the dark. All of his workings are in the open sunlight. Everyone is welcome to “come near” and see what is done. Elijah knew God and he acted like God’s man. What a tragedy it is that not aU of God’s lervants have followed his example. If we had the open and above-board deal ings of Elijah in the affairs of our churches, we might see mOfe of the fire and power of his ministry. Certain it is that the administra tion of church affairs which has to be carried out in hidden comers by whispered conversations and by secret manipulations behind the scenes is not God’s work at all. It ia the work of man. n. No Favors Asked (w. 33-35). Elijah rebuilt the altar himself. He asked no help of the unbelieving prophets of Baal or of apostate Israel. How old-fashioned he seems in this day when so much stress is laid on a false unity of the faiths, and there is so much solicitation and acceptance by the church of the help of unbelievers in financing the supposed work of God. Note also that Elijah invited his enemies to make the answer to his prayer more difficult by pouring water on the sacrifice. This was not an act of bravado; it was for the purpose of demonstrating that there was no fraud. He was willing that the enemies of the truth should make the demonstration more difficult If that would be to God’s glory. There is a delightful old-fashioned flavor about that act, too, in these days when men are frequently will ing to compromise with unbelief and even with sin, in order that the work of the church may be carried on without too much difficulty. Here again we have an explanation of the lack of spiritual power In our times. The victory which came was a glorious testimony to the living reality and the infinite power of God. It left III. No Glory to Man (w. 30b-32, 36-39). A man of bravery usually wants recognition for himself, while the courageous man asks only that the cause for which he fights shall be successful. Elijah had long since demon strated that he was absolutely fear less, and sought no favor or glory (read the entire story). Now in the tenseness of this moment, he care fully rebuilds the altar of the true God- (v. 30), makes It a testimony of unity to a divided Israel (v. 31), and he does it all In the name of the Lord (v. 32). His prayer (w. 36, 37) Is a pro foundly simple expression of a com plete faith in the true God and his power, on the part of a man who recognized himself as being only the divine servant. He made no plea that God would vindicate him „ his ministry, but he did plead that the name of the Lord should be honored in the midst of an un believing people. “The fire of the Lord fell.” The lying prophets of heathendom were routed. Many recognized Jehovah as the true God. While Israel did not long remember the lesson learned here, the story has con tinued as a testimony that will tVta r»*»nnls» rtf fTrtH o a NEEDLEWORK PAHERNS Strawberry Votholder for Gifts Grape, Leaf Doily to Crochet A GIANT strawberry potholder to brighten your kitchen—and a gift to delight your friends!
