Heaven on Earth

One would have to be blind to read Acts 2:42-47 and not sense the startling differences between the first church and the churches of our day. What devotion! What commitment! What generosity! What love! What joy! What fear! What an amazing number of new converts continually being added to the church. The question now is, "What is wrong with us?" The point is that we need an outpouring of the Holy Spirit in a very bad way. This is the only hope for getting ourselves and our churches to look more like the first church.
