The Believers Share Their Possessions

³² All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.^(A)

³³ With great power the apostles continued to testify^(A) to the resurrection^(B) of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace^(C) was so powerfully at work in them all

³⁴ that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them,^(A) brought the money from the sales

³⁵ and put it at the apostles’ feet,^(A) and it was distributed to anyone who had need.^(B)

³⁶ Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas^(A) (which means “son of encouragement”),

³⁷ sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles’ feet.^(A)
