ACTS 2:42-47
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to
the breaking of bread, and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many
wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers
were together (COMMUNITY) and had everything in common. Selling their
possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. (OUTREACH)
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. (CHURCH -
Did not neglect their own spiritual growth) They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the
favor of all the people. (IN THEIR HOMES – SMALL GROUPS) And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. (Growth in the Kingdom)
