Acts 17:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 That they should seek the Lord, if so be they might have [a]groped after him, and found him, though doubtless he be not far from every one of us.
28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being, as also certain of your own Poets have said: For we are also his generation.
29 (A)Forasmuch then, as we are the generation of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone [b]graven by art and the invention of man.
