28. In God we live, move, and exist. As some of your own poets said, ‘We are his offspring.’
29. "Therefore, as God’s offspring, we have no need to imagine that the divine being is like a gold, silver, or stone image made by human skill and thought.
30. God overlooks ignorance of these things in times past, but now directs everyone everywhere to change their hearts and lives.
31. This is because God has set a day when he intends to judge the world justly by a man he has appointed. God has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead."
32. When they heard about the resurrection from the dead, some began to ridicule Paul. However, others said, "We’ll hear from you about this again."
33. At that, Paul left the council.
34. Some people joined him and came to believe, including Dionysius, a member of the council on Mars Hill, a woman named Damaris, and several others.
