Mercy
In 1 Kings 21:28-29, God explains that Ahab’s punishment will be delayed because of his sincere, humble repentance.

Sarcastic Prophet
In 1 Kings 18:20-40, we read about Elijah’s showdown with the prophets of Baal.

I’m looking forward to this study.
My favorite memory of Elijah is his sarcastic treatment of the prophets of Baal.
Elijah’s 2 Prayers
Prayer 1: Burn up this soaking sacrifice
Prayer 2: Let me die. I’m no better than my ancestors
Prayer 2 doesn’t appear to follow logically after God answers Prayer 1 so spectacularly.
