    Ananias and Saphira were right to equate giving with spirituality, but wrong to think giving was a substitute for spirituality.

    “Truth and Consequences”(Ananius & Sapphira) Acts Rev Dr Robert G. Leroe Have you ever kept a gift that you had planned to give away? Acts 5 tells of such a gift. This incident reveals that even in the earliest days of the Church, New Testament believers were not a society of perfect people. ...read more

    Everyone of us are examples to non-Christians. Some are good examples and some are bad examples. Ananias & Sapphira were included in the Bible because of their bad example; Paul shows us what a good example, a man of integrity, looks like!

    If you want to have the kind of a church Like the kind of a church you like, You needn’t slip your clothes in a grip, And start on a long, long hike.

    Some things are so surprising they simply shock us. The early church has many such surprises and shocks, one of the biggest of which concerned the generosity of two of her members.
