, 06:05, November 19, 2020→Chapter 2: A better explanation for Acts 2-44
|And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
|And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
|Everyone who believed was together and shared values, faith, and the truth.
|Everyone who believed was together and shared values, faith, and the truth.
|"had all things common" commonly misread as socialistic nowadays, but doesn't refer to material
|According to the footnote in the Geneva Bible, "all things common" is not a celebration of government controlled "common property", but instead: "''Charity maketh all things common concerning the use, according as necessity requireth.''" In other words, they willingly as individuals gave their '''private property''' away to other individuals around them according to Biblical principles. Charity on the part of individuals is anathema to socialism.
