Acts 17:24-29

24 aThe God who made the world and everything in it, being bLord of heaven and earth, cdoes not live in temples made by man,1 25 nor is he served by human hands, aas though he needed anything, since he himself bgives to all mankind clife and breath and everything. 26 And ahe made from one man every nation of mankind to live bon all the face of the earth, chaving determined allotted periods and dthe boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 athat they should seek God, band perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. cYet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for

a“‘In him we live and move and have our being’;1

as even some of byour own poets have said,

“‘For we are indeed his offspring.’2


29 aBeing then God’s offspring, bwe ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.
