All the Apostles, disciples and new converts
became a witnessing community “and the Lord added to the Church daily
such as should be saved” (Acts 2:47). Such as were saved, truly saved;
and “such as should be saved”, finally saved. The addition
happened DAILY because the believers were all preaching the saving gospel, the
life-changing gospel, the heart-transforming gospel DAILY. “And DAILY in
the temple, and IN EVERY HOUSE, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus
Christ” (Acts 5:42). May the whole Church be committed to doing the
same thing today.
