PAUL’S GOD PITCH

​​​​​​​

Acts 17:24-28—Paul hits Athens, altar tagged “unknown god,” and drops: “God who made it all—Lord of heaven and earth—don’t need your shacks or handouts. He breathes life into everything, set your clocks and turf so you’d grope for Him. He’s close—‘in Him we live, move, be,’ like your poets say, ‘His offspring.’” No Trinity spiel—just one Creator Spirit, no temples, no middlemen. Yahweh’s old gig—needing Moses’ hands (Ex 17:11), gags offerings (25:2)—ain’t this God. Paul’s pimping the raw source, not a three-piece suit.
