Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Acts 2
⁴⁴ And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common;
⁴⁵ and they began selling their property and possessions and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need.
⁴⁶ Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart,
⁴⁷ praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved.
Acts 3
¹ Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the ninth hour, the hour of prayer.
² And a man who had been lame from his mother’s womb was being carried along, whom they used to set down every day at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, in order to beg alms of those who were entering the temple.
³ When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he began asking to receive alms.
⁴ But Peter, along with John, fixed his gaze on him and said, "Look at us!"
⁵ And he began to give them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.
⁶ But Peter said, "I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene-walk!"
⁷ And seizing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened.
