Paul’s Public Speech (Sermon) • Acts 17:22-34 • Analyzed the audience: Philosophers: Epicureans and Stoics encountered him. They said: “What will this babbler say?” Others said, “He seems to present strange gods: He preached Jesus and the resurrection.”
Paul’s Mar’s Hill Sermon • Introduction in Acts 17, Verse 22: • Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious (religious). • Paul’s Introduction utilizes an opening “Attention Getter” and “Starts a Fire.” • Compliment: “…too superstitious” meant “very religious in every way.” • Mystery: ‘To an Unknown God.’ “This God, whom you worship without knowing…”
Develops Introduction to Sermon (v. 23) “For as I passed by… (personal experience) … I beheld your devotions (personal observation) … I found an altar with this inscription (personal experience), TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly (unknowingly) worship … him declare I unto you.” • Gains attention, • Starts a fire • Paul “Builds a Bridge” in the Body
The Body of Paul’s Mar’s Hill Sermon • The Omnipotence of God” • [24] God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
The Body of Paul’s Mar’s Hill Sermon • The Omnipotence of God” • [25] Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;
The Body of Paul’s Mar’s Hill Sermon • The Omnipotence of God” • [26] And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed.
The Approachable & Known God • The Omnipresent and Personal God” • [27] That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
The Approachable & Known God • The Omnipresent and Personal God” • [28] For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
The Approachable & Personal God • The Omnipresent and Personal God” • [29] Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
The Appeal To Action-- Seeking God • [30] And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: • Every Speech, Sermon or Lesson has an Appeal to Action (Close the Sale)
Conclusion and Appeal [31] Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
The Result of the Appeal • [32] And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.
Evangelistic Results • [33] So Paul departed from among them.[34] Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
