This week in bible we have been learning about the difference between the early church and ideal churches now. Some examples we decided on for an ideal church were things like comfy chairs, good food, and interesting pastors. Some of the things we learned about the early church is that the were very unified, they gave if they had more and if you had less you would receive, they were all equal and they meet every day. Some reflections on this is that our suggestions for an ideal church is more self centered. It was about making the church better for us by using material items and in the end it was no longer much of a church. When the church first started they were very willing to give. If anyone had extra they didn’t keep it for themselves, they used only what they needed so that everyone would have enough. They were also willing to do whatever God wanted for them. They were filled with the Holy Spirit and their decisions were centered around Gods will and the Holy Spirit.
