Acts 2:42-47

42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching

and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to

prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the

many wonders and signs performed by the

apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had

everything in common. 45 They sold property and

possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46

Every day they continued to meet together in the

temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and

ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47

praising God and enjoying the favor of all the

people. And the Lord added to their number daily

those who were being saved.

Luke 15:1-2

1 Now the tax collectors and sinners were

all gathering around to hear Jesus.

2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the

law muttered, “This man welcomes

sinners and eats with them.”

Luke 15:4-7

4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and

loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-

nine in the open country and go after the lost

sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it,

he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes

home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors

together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have

found my lost sheep.’

7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more

rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents

than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do

not need to repent.

Isaiah 53:6

We all, like sheep, have gone astray,

each of us has turned to our own way;

Luke 15:8-10

8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and

loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the

house and search carefully until she finds it? 9

And when she finds it, she calls her friends

and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice

with me; I have found my lost coin.’ 10 In the

same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the

presence of the angels of God over one sinner

who repents.”
