Look up to the skies.\par Who created all those stars?\par Who created all those ‘armies’\par \{in the sky\}?\par Who knows every star by name?\par \{The true God\} is very strong and powerful,\par so none of these stars is lost.”\par
The Lord, the \{true\} God, said these things. (The Lord made the skies. The Lord spread the skies over the earth. He also made everything on the earth. The Lord breathes life into all people on earth. The Lord gives a spirit to every person that walks on the earth.)
The Lord made you what you are.\par The Lord did this while you\par were still in your mother’s body.\par The Lord says,\par “I, the Lord, made everything!\par I put the skies there myself!\par I spread the earth before me.”\par
But look at what this man Paul is doing! Listen to what he is saying! Paul has influenced and changed many people. He has done this in Ephesus and all over the country of Asia. {\cf2\super [391]} Paul says the gods that men make are not real.

The angel said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him praise. The time has come for God to judge \{all people\}. Worship God. He made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the springs of water.”
