23For when I came by, I was looking at the things to which you give worship, and I saw an altar with this writing on it, TO THE GOD OF WHOM THERE IS NO KNOWLEDGE. Now, what you, without knowledge, give worship to, I make clear to you.
24The God who made the earth and everything in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, is not housed in buildings made with hands;
25And he is not dependent on the work of men's hands, as if he had need of anything, for he himself gives to all life and breath and all things;
26And he has made of one blood all the nations of men living on all the face of the earth, ordering their times and the limits of their lands,
27So that they might make search for God, in order, if possible, to get knowledge of him and make discovery of him, though he is not far from every one of us:
28For in him we have life and motion and existence; as certain of your verse writers have said, For we are his offspring.
29If then we are the offspring of God, it is not right for us to have the idea that God is like gold or silver or stone, formed by the art or design of man.
