Acts 4:27-37

27 "In this city Herod and Pontius Pilate made plans together with non-Jewish people and the people of Israel. They made their plans against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed.
28 Through your will and power, they did everything that you had already decided should be done.
29 "Lord, pay attention to their threats now, and allow us to speak your word boldly.
30 Show your power by healing, performing miracles, and doing amazing things through the power and the name of your holy servant Jesus."
31 When the apostles had finished praying, their meeting place shook. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God boldly.
32 The whole group of believers lived in harmony. No one called any of his possessions his own. Instead, they shared everything.
33 With great power the apostles continued to testify that the Lord Jesus had come back to life. [God's] abundant good will was with all of them.
34 None of them needed anything. From time to time, people sold land or houses and brought the money
35 to the apostles. Then the money was distributed to anyone who needed it.
36 Joseph, a descendant of Levi, had been born on the island of Cyprus. The apostles called him Barnabas, which means "a person who encourages."
37 He had some land. He sold it and turned the money over to the apostles.
