Acts 17:22-31

Listen to Acts 17:22-31
22 Σταθεὶς δὲ Παῦλος ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Ἀρείου Πάγου ἔφη · Ἄνδρες Ἀθηναῖοι, κατὰ πάντα ὡς δεισιδαιμονεστέρους ὑμᾶς θεωρῶ ·
23 διερχόμενος γὰρ καὶ ἀναθεωρῶν τὰ σεβάσματα ὑμῶν εὗρον καὶ βωμὸν ἐν ᾧ ἐπεγέγραπτο · Ἀγνώστῳ θεῷ. ὃ οὖν ἀγνοοῦντες εὐσεβεῖτε, τοῦτο ἐγὼ καταγγέλλω ὑμῖν.
24 ὁ θεὸς ὁ ποιήσας τὸν κόσμον καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτῷ, οὗτος οὐρανοῦ καὶ γῆς ὑπάρχων κύριος ⸃ οὐκ ἐν χειροποιήτοις ναοῖς κατοικεῖ
25 οὐδὲ ὑπὸ χειρῶν ἀνθρωπίνων θεραπεύεται προσδεόμενός τινος, αὐτὸς διδοὺς πᾶσι ζωὴν καὶ πνοὴν καὶ τὰ ⸃ πάντα ·
26 ἐποίησέν τε ἐξ ἑνὸς πᾶν ἔθνος ἀνθρώπων κατοικεῖν ἐπὶ παντὸς προσώπου ⸃ τῆς γῆς, ὁρίσας προστεταγμένους καιροὺς καὶ τὰς ὁροθεσίας τῆς κατοικίας αὐτῶν,
27 ζητεῖν τὸν θεὸν εἰ ἄρα γε ψηλαφήσειαν αὐτὸν καὶ εὕροιεν, καί γε οὐ μακρὰν ἀπὸ ἑνὸς ἑκάστου ἡμῶν ὑπάρχοντα.
28 ἐν αὐτῷ γὰρ ζῶμεν καὶ κινούμεθα καὶ ἐσμέν, ὡς καί τινες τῶν καθ’ ὑμᾶς ποιητῶν εἰρήκασιν · Τοῦ γὰρ καὶ γένος ἐσμέν.
29 γένος οὖν ὑπάρχοντες τοῦ θεοῦ οὐκ ὀφείλομεν νομίζειν χρυσῷ ἢ ἀργύρῳ ἢ λίθῳ, χαράγματι τέχνης καὶ ἐνθυμήσεως ἀνθρώπου, τὸ θεῖον εἶναι ὅμοιον.
30 τοὺς μὲν οὖν χρόνους τῆς ἀγνοίας ὑπεριδὼν ὁ θεὸς τὰ νῦν παραγγέλλει τοῖς ἀνθρώποις πάντας πανταχοῦ μετανοεῖν,
31 καθότι ἔστησεν ἡμέραν ἐν ᾗ μέλλει κρίνειν τὴν οἰκουμένην ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ ἐν ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὥρισεν, πίστιν παρασχὼν πᾶσιν ἀναστήσας αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν.

The Gospel Part 3a
The Gospel Part 3a
Pastor Mike Fabarez

If I was to ask you what you think it takes to get right with God, how would you answer? How we answer that is critically important, and there is no margin for error. With scores of people being deceived into thinking they’re o.k. when they really aren’t, it becomes very necessary to get out the real, unadulterated Gospel message. And that’s what we’re in the process of doing on Focal Point. As we begin part three of Mike Fabarez’ Gospel series today, we’re going to take some time to recall our dilemma. After Pastor Mike summarizes the problem we all have, we’ll go on to see God’s loving solution.

The Gospel Part 2b
The Gospel Part 2b
Pastor Mike Fabarez

Have you ever read or heard something out of the proper context, and so you arrived at the wrong conclusion? Many people do that with the Gospel, as they don’t really understand its context. That can lead to real problems. Today on Focal Point, Pastor Mike Fabarez returns to his series on the Gospel, and continues to point us to the character of God. We saw last time that God is our creator and so we are accountable to Him. Now we must acknowledge that God is holy and requires holiness of us. Not only that, He’s just and loving too. That’s the important prelude to the Gospel that we’ve got to come to grips with, even before we talk about the Gospel.
