Acts 14:15-17
15and saying, “Men, why are you doing these things? We are also 1men of the same nature as you, and 2preach the gospel to you that you should turn from these 34vain things to a 5living God, 6who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.
167In the generations gone by He 8permitted all the 9nations to 10go their own ways;
17and yet 11He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good and 12gave you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, 13satisfying your hearts with food and gladness.”
