Although he was an innovator , the attitude of the Apostle of the Gentiles towards the achievements of Greek civilization was one of respect and he didn’t hesitate to see them as part of God’s providence and to incorporate them into the Biblical tradition. “‘For in him we live and move and have our being”.
