Acts 2:42-47

The church model at its finest. Acts 2:42 is a verse used a lot to describe what fellowship and community looks like. It paints a great picture of what a body of believers can achieve when their hearts are set for things above. They come together everyday, day after day. They don't care for their possessions or money or really themselves. They live for God and they live for their fellow brothers and sister. They receive what they get with "glad and generous" hearts. Something that modern-day society lacks. We are selfish in what we have and we are greedy in what we don't have. We believe everything is deserved and we are never satisfied. But the Acts community is glad. They are more than content. And even more, they are generous. That means they give freely and willingly. This pleases God. How could it not. Harmonious living done the right way. "And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved." It's a beautiful thing. Who wouldn't want to live in a community like that? Modern day Americans. Let's not conform to that culture. Let's be a revolution of Acts 2:42.
