(Acts 17:22-28) . . .Paul spoke with the men at the Areopagus and looked for a way to find common ground with them, so he could preach about the good news of the Kingdom. The Greeks had God's for everything, trying to 'cover all bases'.

Paul walked along carefully observing their objects of veneration. He could not commend their worship of their false gods, but he found an altar on which had been inscribed 'To an Unknown God.' Therefore, he said what they were unknowingly giving godly devotion to, was the God he was publishing to them. This God does not dwell in handmade temples, but made the world and all the things in it, including the first man, through whom came every nation of men upon the surface of the earth.
