Winger's Acts 17 argument
Paul tells the Athenians that God 'has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead' — the resurrection functions as confirming evidence that Jesus is appointed judge of the world. Sye counters that Paul was presenting this to people who already believed in God, and the resurrection proves the deity/authority of Christ, not the existence of God; the Athenians' condemnation was already secured through general revelation before Paul came.
