Acts 2:44-47

44And all the believers 1were together and 2had all things in common;

45and they 3would sell their property and possessions and share them with all, to the extent that anyone had need.

46 4Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and 5breaking bread 6from house to house, they were taking their 7meals together with gladness and 8sincerity of heart,

47praising God and 9having favor with all the people. And the Lord 10was adding to 11their number day by day 12those who were being saved.
