DESCRIPTION

Engraving by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld (March 26, 1794 - May 24, 1872) Others said, "He seems to be telling us about some other gods," because Paul was telling them about Jesus and his rising from the dead. They got Paul and took him to a meeting of the Areopagus, where they said, "Please explain to us this new idea you have been teaching. The things you are saying are new to us, and we want to know what this teaching means." (All the people of Athens and those from other countries who lived there always used their time to talk about the newest ideas.) Then Paul stood before the meeting of the Areopagus and said, "People of Athens, I can see you are very religious in all things. As I was going through your city, I saw the objects you worship. I found an altar that had these words written on it: TO A GOD WHO IS NOT KNOWN. You worship a god that you don't know, and this is the God I am telling you about! The God who made the whole world and everything in it is the Lord of the land and the sky. He does not live in temples built by human hands. This God is the One who gives life, breath, and everything else to people. He does not need any help from them; he has everything he needs. God began by making one person, and from him came all the different people who live everywhere in the world. God decided exactly when and where they must live. God wanted them to look for him and perhaps search all around for him and find him, though he is not far from any of us: 'By his power we live and move and exist.' Some of your own poets have said: 'For we are his children.' Acts of the Apostles 17:16-28 illustration was published in "Die Bibel in Bildern"(1860) scan by Ivan Burmistrov
