The Bible does not lie: God's children and God's church must go through spiritual wars. For the first three Sundays, John and I stood in front of Herod and Herodias. Today, we will stand before Ahab and Jezebel with Elijah. Looking back at Genesis 1: 27, "God created man in his own image, but he created male and female in his own image", will we burst into tears? God created man and woman, and now they have betrayed God and become Ahab and Jezebel. 1 Kings 19: 1 is a very subtle sentence, with Ahab before and Jezebel behind, surrounding the prophets of God. And 19:2 The woman was offside and strangled the word of God. The men and women in the center of the universe are now "dog men and women". We think that husband and wife are one. Ahab and Jezebel are the basic situation we have to face, the external environment of the church, the object of our spiritual war, and the world that the Lord Jesus said we should hate you. The reason why "the world hates you" is because "darkness does not accept light". So, what crimes did Ahab and Jezebel commit? We will return to 1 Kings 16: 30-34, "30 Ahab, the son of Omri, did evil in the eyes of the Lord, more than all kings before him, and 3 1 committed the crime of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat. He thought it was too light, so he married Jezebel, the daughter of Baal, king of Sidon. Don't serve and worship Baal. A temple was built for Baal in Samaria, and an altar was built for him in the temple. Ahab also became an asherah, provoking the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger more than all the kings of Israel before him. In the days of Ahab, Hilkiah the Bethel rebuilt Jericho. When I laid the foundation stone, I lost my eldest son Abilan. When I came to the gate, I lost my youngest son, Segub, just as the Lord had said by Joshua son of Nun.
