New Testament

Acts 17:20-25 Modern English Version (MEV)

23. For as I passed by and looked up at your objects of worship, I found an altar with this inscription:Whom you therefore unknowingly worship, Him I proclaim to you.

24. “God who made the world and all things in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by hands.

25. Nor is He served by men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives all men life and breath and all things.
