There was no separateness between Christ-followers in this early church. The rich and the poor came together, and there was an overflow of sharing, so much so that it seemed as if the fellowship engaged in share-and-share alike. There is a deep principle at work here: Profound conversion of heart produces a natural generosity. The power of Christ unbound the selfish heart. It generated a love and compassion between people that was so intense that no one could hold on to anything extra when someone else appeared in personal need.
