Christian Treasury: Volume 1
One of the characteristics of the early Christians was their joyful sharing of their possessions. It was not communism; it was Christian compassion. "And all that believed were together, and had all things common; and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need."
Acts 2:44,45
44
And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
45
And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. (Acts 2:44‑45)
. God has not commanded us to follow their exact example, but He has encouraged us to share what we have with others. See l
John 3:17
17
