Mat28..20 "teaching them to observe
all things that I have
commanded you; and lo, I am
with you always, even to the
end of the age." Amen.
Acts2..42 And they continued
steadfastly in the apostles'
doctrine and fellowship, in
the breaking of bread, and in
prayers.
43 Then fear came upon every
soul, and many wonders and
signs were done through the
apostles.
44 Now all who believed were
together, and had all things
in common,
45 and sold their possessions
and goods, and divided them
among all, as anyone had
need.
46 So continuing daily with
one accord in the temple, and
breaking bread from house to
house, they ate their food
with gladness and simplicity
of heart,
47 praising GOD and having
favor with all the people.
And the LORD added to the
church daily those who were
being saved.
Acts5..42 And daily in the temple,
and in every house, they did
not cease teaching and
preaching Jesus as the Christ.
Acts20..18 And when they had come to
him, he said to them: "You
know, from the first day that
I came to Asia, in what
manner I always lived among
you,
19 "serving the LORD with all
humility, with many tears and
trials which happened to me
by the plotting of the Jews;
20 "how I kept back nothing
that was helpful, but
proclaimed it to you, and
taught you publicly and from
house to house,
21 "testifying to Jews, and
also to Greeks, repentance
toward GOD and faith toward
our LORD Jesus Christ.
22 "And see, now I go bound
in the spirit to Jerusalem,
not knowing the things that
will happen to me there,

23 "except that the Holy
Spirit testifies in every
city, saying that chains and
tribulations await me.
24 "But none of these things
move me; nor do I count my
life dear to myself, so that
I may finish my race with
joy, and the ministry which I
received from the LORD Jesus,
to testify to the gospel of
the grace of GOD.
25 "And indeed, now I know
that you all, among whom I
have gone preaching the
kingdom of GOD, will see my
face no more.
26 "Therefore I testify to
you this day that I am
innocent of the blood of all
men.
27 "For I have not shunned to
declare to you the whole
counsel of GOD.
28 "Therefore take heed to
yourselves and to all the
flock, among which the Holy
Spirit has made you
overseers, to shepherd the
church of GOD which He
purchased with His own blood.
29 "For I know this, that
after my departure savage
wolves will come in among
you, not sparing the flock.
30 "Also from among
yourselves men will rise up,
speaking perverse things, to
draw away the disciples after
themselves.
31 "Therefore watch, and
remember that for three years
I did not cease to warn
everyone night and day with
tears.
32 "So now, brethren, I
commend you to GOD and to the
word of His grace, which is
able to build you up and give
you an inheritance among all
those who are sanctified.
33 "I have coveted no one's
silver or gold or apparel.
34 "Yes, you yourselves know
that these hands have
provided for my necessities,
and for those who were with
me.
35 "I have shown you in every
way, by laboring like this,
that you must support the
weak. And remember the words
of the LORD Jesus, that He
said, 'It is more blessed to
give than to receive.' "
