Ananias and Sapphira weren't being spoken about. He was speaking about the NT church as a whole and how they did things. He said his church was about believing in unity and having all things common. So did the church below, so I'm asking if his church did as they did.
And all those who had believed were together, and had all things in common; and they began selling their property and possessions, and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need (
Acts 2:42-45).
