Acts 2:46-47 (NLT)
They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity — all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship those who were being saved.
It’s a sacred welcome.
It’s a personal welcome.
It’s a life-giving welcome.
It’s also a welcome that often takes us beyond the familiar and comfortable.
Their welcome and hospitality of others reflected what they truly believed about the Gospel—was it really good news for everyone?
