Acts 17:26-29

26and 1He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having 2determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation,

27that they would seek God, if perhaps they might feel around for Him and find Him, 3though He is not far from each one of us;

28for 4in Him we live and move and 5exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His descendants.’

29Therefore, since we are the descendants of God, we 6ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by human skill and thought.
