Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Acts 2
⁴⁰ And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, "Be saved from this perverse generation."
⁴¹ Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.
⁴² And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
⁴³ Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
⁴⁴ Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common,
⁴⁵ and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need.
⁴⁶ So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart,
⁴⁷ praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.
Acts 3
¹ Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.
² And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered the temple;
³ who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for alms.
