Acts of the Apostles 17:29

In context

27so that they might seek God, feeling their way toward him and finding him — though in fact he is not far from any one of us. 28For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said: ‘We are also his offspring.’ 29So, being God’s offspring, we ought not to imagine that the divine is like gold or silver or stone, shaped by human craft and imagination. 30God overlooked such times of ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, 31for he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world with justice by a man he has appointed. Of this he has given proof to everyone by raising him from the dead.”
