Choose for Yourselves Whom You Will Serve


 

The Bible clearly shows that finding the way that leads to the true God requires careful thought and deliberate choice. Joshua, a servant of Jehovah God, said to the ancient nation of Israel: “Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve, whether the gods that your forefathers who were on the other side of the River served or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are dwelling. But as for me and my household, we shall serve Jehovah.” Years later, the prophet Elijah urged the people to make a similar choice: “How long will you be limping upon two different opinions? If Jehovah is the true God, go following him; but if Baal [a Canaanite god] is, go following him.”—Joshua 24:15, 16; 1 Kings 18:21.
 

These and other Bible texts emphatically show that those who wanted to serve the true God had to make a conscientious choice. The situation is the same today.
