Thought of the Day !!

Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
Acts 2:46-47


This is the early Church. They came together daily. They ate together. They sincerely cared about each other. They praised God. And more and more, people came and were added to their number because they were seen to have something others didn't. Do others see in you something that they do not have? If so, what is it? Is it good or bad, love or hate, faithfulness or hypocrisy? Christians can either turn people on to Christ or turn them off to Christ by the words they say and the way they live their lives. Which have you been doing lately?

In the love of Christ,
greg

The thing that strikes me about this description is that they not only met publicly on a daily basis but ate in each other's home daily too. They were a true community. How different it is today.

That's true. In many households, it's not even often that the residing family eats together.
