Those Who Have Not Bowed Their Knee to Baal
12/30/2025
There are some verses that indicate that “few will be those who find it” will certainly still be a large number of people.
The 7,000 who had not bowed their knee to Baal made up about 1.5-2% of the population of the northern kingdom during Elijah’s time.
Of the roughly 300 million people in the United States, about 200 million self-identify with some brand of “christianity.” If Elijah’s ratios are even in the ballpark today, that’s somewhere in the 3-6 million people in the United States who may not have “bowed their knee to Baal” and who would choose an Ecosystem over an emotional pacifier, given the chance.
“Few will be those who find it” doesn’t conflict at all with the following verses.
“After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!’” (Revelation 7)
“‘Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst,’ says the Lord. ‘Many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you.’” (Zechariah 2)
“The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, ‘Let us continue to go and pray before the Lord, and seek the Lord of hosts. I myself will go also.’ Yes, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord. Thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.”’” (Zechariah 8)
