I. God Made People
26 From one man He has made every nationality......
Paul again lays another fundamental doctrine of the Christian faith.
The prepositional phrase translated as “from one man” (ἐξ ἑνός) describes the origins of humankind; all human beings, to whatever nation they may belong, have one common ancestor.
God is the Creator and He, through one blood made every nation of men.

God has determined the people that would dwell on earth.
He has made every man and every man came from the first man Adam.
People have some funny beliefs, but the Word of God is clear that from one blood God made every man to dwell on the face of the earth.
Again—let me emphasize that man did not evolve, rise up, get better, grow stronger!
Mankind is made by God!

27 He did this so they might seek God, and perhaps they might reach out and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.
