Read Acts 4:1-37
Miraculous healings tend to draw attention. The number of believers was growing and so was the nervousness of the Jewish elders, leaders, and teachers. Momentum seemed to be favoring the Jesus movement, however. Empty threats and warnings were all the leaders could do to Peter and John because of the favor and popular sentiment growing about the people. A sweet season of sharing, kindness, and expansion was a blessing from God. Unity, generosity, and goodwill would all be words to describe this fledgling movement.
