Paul Speaks To The Areopagus

30 Those times when men had no knowledge were overlooked by God; but now he gives orders to all men in every place to undergo a change of heart: 31 Because a day has been fixed in which all the world will be judged in righteousness by the man who has been marked out by him for this work; of which he has given a sign to all men by giving him back from the dead. 32 Now on hearing about the coming back from death, some of them made sport of it, but others said, Let us go more fully into this another time.
