Acts 2:44
“ Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common.”
Like I said in verses 43, it is important to be in a community of like minds in order for you to grow in your faith as a child of God. It is human nature to pick friend groups that match our own interests in life. When we live and grow as a group, we are able to be a light to other around us.
Matthew 5:16
“ Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”
The modern day church looks very different then the first church we read about in Acts 2:41-47, they were a community, and all they did was for the glory of God or the bettering of their fellowship with each other. Today’s congregations might only see each other once a week of even once a month. Now a day’s there seven different campuses and eight different services, not to say these things are bad, they just make it harder for everyone to fellowship as one. But there are ways to change this join a bible study, help out with the youth programs. Go the extra mile and actually have a dinner at your house, go to the movies, and plan other actives together as a whole. Do things together. Live life as one.
