This I say therefore, and conjure you by the Lord not to live for the future as other Gentiles do, in the vanity of their minds, which are overspread with darkness, and averse to a religious life, thro' their innate ignorance and obduracy: who without remorse, have abandon'd themselves to brutality, in gratifying every lewd unnatural passion.

While Paul was expecting them at Athens, he was grieved to the soul to see the whole city o'er-spread with idols. he disputed therefore in the synagogue with the Jews, and the proselyted Greeks: and in the publick place daily with those he met.

Then Paul being plac'd in the middle of the Areopagus, said thus, "I observe, O Athenians, that you are in a manner too devout. for considering, as I pass'd along, the deitys, which you adore, I met with an altar that had this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. now that GOD whom you worship without knowing him, is the same that I denounce to you. the GOD who made the world and every thing therein, and is the Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples erected by men: read more.
he receives no service from their officiousness: he is self-sufficient: it is he that gives to all their life and breath and every thing they have. he he has deduced all mankind from one parent, to inhabit the surface of the whole earth, having pre-establish'd the appointed periods, and the boundarys of their dominions: by which they might enquire, and by due reflection investigate the supreme being, although he be not far from every one of us: for in him we live,

there the divine wrath is revealed from heaven against all impiety, and injustice of men, who wickedly suppress the truth. because what should be known of God they are acquainted with; for God hath manifested it unto them. for ever since the creation of the world, his eternal power and divinity, things in themselves invisible, are clearly seen, being perceived by the things that are made; so that they are without excuse: read more.
because when they knew God, they did not with gratitude glorify him as God, but their reasoning became extravagance, and their minds, void of judgment, were involv'd in darkness. pretending to be wise, they became fools: the honour due to God, who is immortal, they transferr'd to idols representing men, who are mortal, to birds, and beasts, and insects. wherefore God abandon'd them to the impure passions of their own hearts, so that they themselves dishonour'd their own bodies; they changed the true God for an idol, and adored and served the creature more than the creator, who is blessed for ever. amen. for this cause God gave them up to infamous passions: for even the sex perverted the instinct of nature: and the men unnaturally leaving the sex, were inflamed with mutual passions, which they shamefully indulged, and received in their own persons, the retribution that was justly due to such enormities. As they did not seek the favour of God, by worshipping him, God gave them over to a depraved sense, to act unworthy of human nature; they were full of all injustice, fornication, mischief, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, contention, fraud, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, enemies of God, injurious, proud, vain, inventers of vices, disobedient to parents, void of judgment, fidelity, and natural affection; implacable, and unmerciful: who knowing the divine rule of right, did not perceive that they who commit such things are worthy of death, and not only they who do the same, but they who give countenance to those that do them.

Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art, that condemnest another, for by condemning them, you condemn yourself; since you that condemn them, do the same things. but we know that the judgment of God against those who commit such crimes, is just. do you think then, O man, who do what you condemn in others, that you shall escape the judgment of God? read more.
or do you despise the riches of his kindness, and forbearance, and long-suffering; not considering that the kindness of God invites you to repentance? however by your impenitence, and the insensibility of your heart, you treasure up for yourself wrath against the day of wrath, and of the revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will render to every man according to his actions: eternal life to those, who by patient continuance in well doing, seek for glory, honour, and immortality; but unto those who are contentious, and do not yield to the truth, but give way to injustice, indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish to every one that doth evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile. but glory, honour, and peace, to every man that acts right, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: since with God there is no respect of persons. For as many as have sinned without the law, shall also perish without the law: and as many as have sinned under the law, shall be condemned by the law, for not the bare hearers of the law, but they who observe the law, are such as shall be justified, before God. when the Gentiles who have not the law, do by nature what the law prescribes, tho' these have not the law, they are a law to themselves: for they shew that the duties prescrib'd by the law, are written in their hearts, their consciences bearing witness to it, by their own reasonings alternately accusing and excusing them.
