Acts 4:32-5:11 POSSESSIONS AND THE GOSPEL

Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common. ACTS 4:32

There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold and laid it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need. ACTS 4:34-35

Thus Barnabas (which means son of encouragement), sold a field that belonged to him and brought the money and laid it at the apostles' feet. ACTS 4:37

But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property, and with his wife's knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles' feet. ACTS 5:1-2

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. PHILIPPIANS 2:5-7

And when they had prayed, they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness. ACTS 4:31
