In the first reading God is revealing through Elijah that he is all powerful by intervening in material events. He is showing his people that worshipping inanimate objects is more than the obvious stupidity that it is but is also an affront to HIS infinite being.

Throughout the Old Testament God reveals to His people the reason he has created our world. He intervenes directly in the affairs of men to show that we are being allowed to understand in the depths of our being that we are made in his image and likeness to do in our generation His will during the era in which we are on earth.

Even though there were many direct interventions into time made by God during the period of the Old Testament the Jews although gifted so much did not match the Love of God for them by returning that Love. 

God closes the first revelation of himself, as IAMIAM, by the lives of Jesus and Mary in the land he had chosen to give to the Jews.

Grown to adulthood Jesus Son of the now revealed IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT teaches us directly and by his miracles, the signs demanded by the people of the Old Testament. He is the totality of God's will on earth. He preaches that we need to Love God and each other by always putting God and other people before the needs of our own selves 

The only people he ever condemns face to face are those who serve the Lord by study and as sacrificing priests. There has never been any need for our churches to become the worldly institutions that they became all too quickly and remain so today for the unseen spiritual body of Christ has always present in the New Holy Family of Mary John and all mankind that will be with us until the end of time.

Dear Lord, May my thoughts be a true reflection of your will for me. Help me to stifle myself and in these few moments contemplate your will with total honesty. You know that I often fail in my efforts to confine my own will to your guidance. I am a sinner totally reliant on your grace which is freely available. Your visible and invisible churches are supported to the extent that we seek your help. Mary and all the saints are totally engaged in perfect worship part of which has to be the likeness of Love for all mankind which you accepted by death for us, that has created the greatest sign revealed by IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT. Your Resurrection is your last and greatest promise to me and all sinners both here and in Purgatory. Help me to live up to this promise in my own being as image and likeness. Amen
