Truth for Today with Terry Fant

No More Limping | 1 Kings 18:20-40

How long will you limp between two opinions? In 1 Kings 18, Elijah confronts Israel with a question that still echoes today: Will you follow God completely, or will you continue trying to serve two masters?
On Mount Carmel, God exposes the emptiness of false gods and demonstrates His unmatched power and faithfulness.
In this message, we explore the danger of divided allegiance, the futility of idols that promise much but deliver nothing, and the reality that God alone is worthy of our complete devotion. While false gods always take and never give, the Lord powerfully reveals Himself as the One who saves, provides, and transforms lives.
Just as Elijah called Israel to make a decision, every person must answer the same question today: Who will you serve?
