We also are men with similar passions as you and preach to you that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all things in them, 16 Who in the past allowed all nations to walk in their own ways. 17 Nevertheless, He did not leave Himself without witness, He did good, giving us rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness. 18 And with these sayings, they barely kept the people from sacrificing to them.

Therefore, the one whom you worship without knowing—Him I proclaim to you. 24 God, who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; 25 Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things; 26 And has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings; 27 So that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might feel for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; 28 For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as also some of your own poets have said, For we are His offspring. 29 Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and man's design. 30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 Because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained; He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.
