Acts 17:29-31
Tree of Life Version
[a] 29 Since we are His offspring, we ought not to suppose the Deity is like gold or silver or stone, an engraved image of human art and imagination. [b] 30 Although God overlooked the periods of ignorance, now He commands everyone everywhere to repent. 31 For He has set a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness, through a Man whom He has appointed.[c] He has brought forth evidence of this to all men, by raising Him from the dead.”
