| Acts 17:26-28 26 He has made from one blood all nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined the allotted times and the boundaries of their habitation; 27 So that they should seek the Lord, and perhaps might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from every one of us.

George Fox wrote: "The Father is in you all, Christ is in you, and the Kingdom of Heaven is in you; there, in your hearts, is where you will find them all. Know him there searching your hearts, and find him there trying your minds and hearts; incline your ears, and give ear to him there, who will render to everyone of you according to your words and works whether they are good or evil."] 28 For in him we live and move, and have our being;1 as certain of your own poets have said, 'For we are his offspring.' | Ephesians 4:6 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.2 [The Father is in you all — Christ is in you all, and the Kingdom of Heaven is in you; there, in your hearts, is where you will find them all. Know him there searching your hearts, and find him there trying your minds and hearts; incline your ears, and give ear to him there, who will render to everyone of you according to your words and works whether they are good or evil, (George Fox.] | ||||||||
