Acts 4:34

Sharing among Believers

33With great power the apostles continued to give their testimony about the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And abundant grace was upon them all.34There were no needy ones among them, because those who owned lands or houses would sell their property, bring the proceeds from the sales,35and lay them at the apostles’ feet for distribution to anyone as he had need.
