Acts 2:43-47

43 Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many 1wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles.
44 And all those who had believed were together * * and 2had all things in common;
45 and they 3began selling their property and possessions and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need.
46 4Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and 5breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart,
47 praising God and 6having favor with all the people. And the Lord 7was adding to their number day by day 8those who were being saved.
