Acts:17:23-31
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For as I passed by ,
and beheld your devotions ,
I found an altar with this inscription ,
TO THE UNKNOWN GOD .
Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship ,
him declare I unto you .
*
God that made the world and all things therein ,
seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth ,
dwelleth not in temples made with hands ;
*
Neither is worshipped with men '
s hands ,
as though he needed any thing ,
seeing he giveth to all life ,
and breath ,
and all things ;
*
And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth ,
and hath determined the times before appointed ,
and the bounds of their habitation ;
*
That they should seek the Lord ,
if haply they might feel after him ,
and find him ,
though he be not far from every one of us :
*
For in him we live ,
and move ,
and have our being ;
as certain also of your own poets have said ,
For we are also his offspring .
*
Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God ,
we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold ,
or silver ,
or stone ,
graven by art and man '
s device .
*
And the times of this ignorance God winked at ;
but now commandeth all men every where to repent :
*
Because he hath appointed a day ,
in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained ;
whereof he hath given assurance unto all men ,
in that he hath raised him from the dead .
