41 Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. And the same day there were added about three thousand souls.

42 And they were continuing steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, and in fellowship and in the breaking of the loaves, and in prayers.

43 And fear came on every soul. And many wonders and miracles took place through the apostles.

44 And all who believed were together and had all things common.

45 And they sold their possessions and goods and distributed them to all, according as anyone had need.

46 And continuing with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they shared food with gladness and simplicity of heart,

47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.
