Acts I. 6 When they therefore had come together, they asked of Him, saying, Lord, will You at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

Romans 1:18-32 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attri...
