6. Acts 2:42-47

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.
7. Acts 2:42-47

and had all things in common, 45 and
sold their possessions and goods, and
divided them among all, as anyone had
need.

the temple, and breaking bread from
house to house, they ate their food with
gladness and simplicity of heart,

the people. And the Lord added to the

hope to come to you shortly; 15 but if I
am delayed, I write so that you may
know how you ought to conduct yourself
in the house of God, which is the church
of the living God, the pillar and ground of
the truth.

19. Colossians 1:18
And He is the head of the body, the
church, who is the beginning, the
firstborn from the dead, that in all
things He may have the preeminence.
20. Ephesians 1:22,23
22 And He put all things under His feet,
and gave Him to be head over all
things to the church, 23 which is His
body, the fullness of Him who fills all
in all.
21. 1Corinthians 12:20-26
20 But now indeed there are many
members, yet one body. 21 And the eye
cannot say to the hand, “I have no need
of you”; nor again the head to the feet,
“I have no need of you.” 22 No, much
rather, those members of the body
which seem to be weaker are necessary.
22. 1Corinthians 12:20-26
23 And those members of the body
which we think to be less honorable, on
these we bestow greater honor; and
our unpresentable parts have greater
modesty,
23. 1Corinthians 12:20-26
24 but our presentable parts have no
need. But God composed the body,
having given greater honor to that part
which lacks it, 25 that there should be no
schism in the body, but that the
members should have the same care for
one another.
24. 1Corinthians 12:20-26
26 And if one member suffers, all the
members suffer with it; or if one
member is honored, all the members
rejoice with it.
