PM Edition for July 18
Tonight’s scripture emphasizes the resolute actions of the prophet Elijah. After witnessing the divine answer to his prayer, with fire consuming the sacrifice, Elijah called upon the people of Israel to seize the priests of Baal and declared sternly, "Let not one of them escape." He executed judgment on them at the brook Kishon. This decisive action serves as a powerful illustration for us regarding our sins—they are all condemned, and not one must be allowed to remain.
