Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common.

And with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all.

There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold and laid it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need.

Thus Joseph, who was also called by the apostles Barnabas (which means son of encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus, sold a field that belonged to him and brought the money and laid it at the apostles' feet.

Acts 4:32-37

“Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.”

In Luke 17, Jesus offers a series of teachings that emphasize faith, humility, gratitude, and the coming of God's Kingdom. Jesus begins by warning His disciples about causing others to stumble “stumbling block”, stressing the seriousness of leading others into sin. He teaches forgiveness, urging believers to forgive even seven times a day if someone repents. The apostles, recognizing the challenge, ask Jesus to “increase our faith”, to which He responds that even faith as small as a mustard seed can accomplish great things.

Jesus also uses the example of a servant to illustrate that obedience to God is expected, not something deserving of praise. When we do what is commanded, we are to say, “We are unworthy servants”
