Church Sacrifice


If we want to have the blessing of God on our churches, we need to do what the early church did in Acts chapters 1-2. There was a common theme in the first church that God so richly blessed, and the willingness to sacrifice. Take a look at this in Acts 2:44-45; All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.)

Wow! What a concept – to make sure no one is in need they gave freely and abundantly to the church to care for each other. This can only happen when we start living like the first part of the passage; All the believers were together and had everything in common.

Do you feel that the church has come together and share things in common with one another?

It is probably one of the great detriments of the church, and we are called hypocrites. Let us pray and act with one mind and heart – Jesus’. Amen?

Be wise today and always – remember who owns every thing.
