Paul came to Athens on his second missionary trip many years later, and as he was walking about the city, he noticed that inscription. He took use of the occasion to address his audience, saying, "The One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you." Paul had a personal knowledge of that one God, of whom they knew nothing. He introduced Himself as the "Lord of heaven and earth" (Acts 17:24). The apostle, however, didn't end there. He also urged people to repent since Jesus Christ will one day judge the earth justly.
The one real God has already made Himself known to us via His Son, so we don't need to spend our lives looking for a god we don't know. When we repent of our sins and receive Jesus as our personal Savior, we encounter the Creator.
Do you know Him, or do you still have no idea who He is?
God reveals His hand in creation, and His heart in redemption. Man stumbles through the dark labyrinth of life, frequently praying to unknown gods, until the day he encounters God's Son—at last he discovers the Living One!
