Unity in the Early Church: Read Acts 1 and 2


They prayed together:

“They all joined constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus and with his brothers”…Acts 1:14

They were all together in one place:

 “When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place”…Acts 2:1

All of them were filled with Holy Spirit:

“All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them”…Acts 2:4

They shared their possessions with those who in need:

“Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need”…Acts 2:45

They were together in praising God:

“Praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved”…Acts 2:47

  Evangelism

"We have not been men of prayer. The spirit of prayer has slumbered among us. The closet has been too little frequented and delighted in. We have allowed business, study or active labor to interfere with our closet-hours. And the feverish atmosphere in which both the church and the nation are enveloped has found its way into our prayer closets…" - Andrew Bonar
