And they shared their wealth amongst themselves, the believers,
not with every stranger that had their hand out demanding it.
MrB: “And they shared their wealth amongst themselves, the believers, not with every stranger that had their hand out demanding it.”
Not only that, but it (wealth redistribution) caused a slew of other problems that had to be addressed by the church leaders. The wealth redistribution described in Acts ultimately failed. It can probably work in small, committed groups, like the early church, but there’s no way it can function well for large organizations.
