1 Kings 18:21-23

21Then Elijah approached all the people and said, “1How long are you going to 2struggle with the two choices? 3If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people did not answer him so much as a word.

22Then Elijah said to the people, “I 4alone am left as a prophet of the Lord, while Baal’s prophets are 5450 men.

23Now 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.
