Acts 17:27-33

²⁷so that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;

²⁸because in Him we live and move and have our being. As also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also his offspring.’

²⁹Therefore, since we are God's offspring, we ought not to think that the divinity is like gold or silver or stone—something shaped by human skill and imagination.

³⁰Such times of ignorance God did indeed overlook, but now He commands all people everywhere to repent,

³¹because He has appointed a day in which He will judge the inhabited world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained; He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”

³²Well when they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some started scoffing, while others said, “We will hear you again about this.”

³³And with that Paul went out from among them.
