44 Now all who believed were together and had all things in common; 45 they started selling both possessions and goods and were distributing to all according as anyone had need.* 46 So day by day they continued steadfastly with one purpose in the temple* and broke bread from house to house;* they received their share of food with gladness and singleness of heart,* 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And day by day the Lord added* to the Church* those who were being saved.
