Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Acts 17
²⁹ Being then the children of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and thought of man.
³⁰ Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent,
³¹ because He has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished proof to all men by raising Him from the dead."
³² Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some began to sneer, but others said, "We shall hear you again concerning this."
³³ So Paul went out of their midst.
³⁴ But some men joined him and believed, among whom also were Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.
Acts 18
¹ After these things he left Athens and went to Corinth.
² And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, having recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. He came to them,
³ and because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and they were working, for by trade they were tent-makers.
⁴ And he was reasoning in the synagogue every Sabbath and trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.
⁵ But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul began devoting himself completely to the word, solemnly testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
