Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. Acts 2:44,45

Talk about a community yard sale, if you had any selfishness in you this would eliminate it! This must have been a gigantic event to be selling all your stuff, and the neighbors would have thought everyone had lost their ever-loving mind!
Imagine having all things in common and selling everything that was near and dear to you, up for sale! This is so far from the modern-day realm of church life that it would be deemed a cult! I'm sure it was similar in their day to be together and share what they had. The true Christian life has always been mocked!
This was to be the normal Way of the believer's life, to be together and share all their possessions together in agreement. The body of the risen Lord was now a supernatural entity bound together in love and anointed to be the expression of the Lord Jesus Christ in the earth!
They were praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved. Acts 2:47
