Are You Ready For Sunday…

Living Out The Word

“Athenians, I see how extremely spiritual you are in every way. For as I went through the city and looked carefully at the objects of your worship, I found among them an altar with the inscription, ‘To an unknown god.’” Acts 17:22-23

Why do you suppose this is a common phrase today is “I’m spiritual but not religious.”  

Where do gods show up in our lives and in the church? 

How would you persuade someone into worshipping our Lord?

Scripture

Acts 17: 22-31

Paul's message to the Athenians

17:22
Then Paul stood in front of the Areopagus and said, "Athenians, I see how extremely spiritual you are in every way.

17:23
For as I went through the city and looked carefully at the objects of your worship, I found among them an altar with the inscription, 'To an unknown god.' What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you.

17:24
The God who made the world and everything in it, he who is Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by human hands,

17:25
nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mortals life and breath and all things.

17:26
From one ancestor he made all people to inhabit the whole earth, and he allotted the times of their existence and the boundaries of the places where they would live,

17:27
so that they would search for God and perhaps fumble about for him and find him--though indeed he is not far from each one of us.

17:28
For 'In him we live and move and have our being'; as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we, too, are his offspring.'

17:29
"Since we are God's offspring, we ought not to think that the deity is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of mortals.

17:30
While God has overlooked the times of human ignorance, now he commands all people everywhere to repent,

17:31
because he has fixed a day on which he will have the world judged in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead."
