Acts 17:25
Compare all
23 for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you:
24 a“God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is bLord of heaven and earth, cdoes not dwell in temples made with hands.  
25 Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He agives to all life, breath, and all things.  
26 And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and athe boundaries of their dwellings,  
27 aso that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, bthough He is not far from each one of us;  
28 for ain Him we live and move and have our being, bas also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’
