Yeah, I missed all the festivities. I just came in for the—I was the last speech there— And so I guess they figured I'm a guy who kind of discovered God in the outdoors and the life change of our parents. But, you know, it led me to the Bible, which led me to Jesus, which led me to my surrender. But, you know, it all started me just looking at the creation thinking, I think somebody created this.

And so I gave my little speech, but I did this illustration to prove my point. And so I asked three questions. I did this right at the first. I said, well, let's do some audience participation here. Let's get to know each other. And I've been famous for asking three questions that I got from Acts 17, which, by the way, echoes Ephesians 1. Yep.

And maybe this will be a good test for y'all to say whether I should do this illustration. So here's what I'm doing. I'm doing an experiment to see if my thought process is right, that we kind of missed the big picture of Ephesians. And so I'll read this Acts 17, which I quoted without planning on doing it in my speech.

But when Paul got up and shared to a group of people who were bowing down to an altar, this one inscription on this altar in Acts 17, 23 got his attention because he looked carefully at the objects of worship from the people here in Athens. in which I've been to this place modern day, it's still there. And he says they had an inscription that said, to an unknown God.

He said, I'm going to proclaim this unknown God. And so he starts this sermon. He said, the God who made the world and everything in it. Now, watch what he first says right off the bat. Is the Lord of heaven and earth. He says the same thing he wrote in Ephesians that was saying this is the culmination of God's will and plan.

He said he's Lord of heaven and earth, and he doesn't live in buildings built by hands. And then you remember the rest of it. He's not served by human hands. He gives all men life, breath, everything else.
