of Baal heeame popular, trriteg pro-
moted and protected by the King.
Rut God was still speaking to the
people through his prophetd and try-

one living and true God; so Elijah ap-
pears as though dropped from heaven
in the same wonderful way he as-
cended for there ie oo mention of his
family other than the designation of
the "Tlshbite." It would Seem from
the abruptness of hie message to the
king on his first appearance before
him that he had beeen, previous to this
utterance, denouncing the iniquity of
king and people alike and warning
them of the conaeequencee% should they
persist in doing reveren.e to idol.'
and in particular to the sun-god Raaf.

from beeves. He spoke of himself
as being alone, a small party against

that God would vindicate Him*Mf

that Iheve done all there tidings at

At the dose of thio short, confident
prayer, the fire came down. licked up
the water and consumed not only the
bullock, but the very .topes of the
altar as well. The ,effect of this on
the people was what the prophet was
seeking. They prostrated themselves.

"The Lord, he la the God; the Lord.

not. for God bad sanctioned ouch de-
struction. "Te shall walk after the
