1 Kings 18:20-24

So Ahab sent orders among all the sons of Israel and brought the prophets together at Mount Carmel.

Then Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long are you going to struggle with the two choices? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people did not answer him so much as a word.

Then Elijah said to the people, “I alone am left as a prophet of the Lord, while Baal’s prophets are 450 men.

Now have them give us two oxen; and have them choose the one ox for themselves and cut it up, and place it on the wood, but put no fire under it; and I will prepare the other ox and lay it on the wood, and I will not put a fire under it.

Then you call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord; and the God who answers by fire, He is God.” And all the people replied, “That is a good idea.”
