Acts 2:41-47 - A Generous And Growing Church

41 So those who accepted his message were baptized, and on that day about three thousand souls were added. 42 And they were devoting themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayers.

43 And fear came on every soul, and many wonders and signs were being performed by the apostles. 44 And all who believed were in the same [place], and had everything in common. 45 And they began selling [their] possessions and property, and distributing these [things] to all, to the degree that anyone had need. 46 And every day, devoting themselves [to meeting] with one purpose in the temple [courts] and breaking bread from house [to house], they were eating [their] food with joy and simplicity of heart, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding every day to the total [of] those who were being saved.
