Passion and wisdom

Acts 17:26-23
Paul was greatly distress to see that city full of idols.He reasoned in Syngogue with both Jews and God-fearing Greeks.
Paul stood up in the meeting of Areopagus and said," People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious. For as I walked around and look carefully every objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription  "TO AN UNKNOWN GOD". You are ignorant of the very thing worship.
Why?
Paul are caring the people who worship idols, there soul are in the darkness.
Paul respected the religious of Athens. But he reminded them that the most important one they are ignorant.
Paul knew that the people in Areopagu are reason people they like to talk the new or strange things. They like to search the truth.
Paul is wise and smart man to preach gospel.
Preaching gospel not only need passion but also need wisdom.
Most people who did not know what they are doing, or worshiping. They need the light of the truth. So as Christian needs to know the God, who is a living God. God loves us and we need follow his way and his word.
How?
Passion plus wisdom to preach gospel, let more people turn to the Lord!
