"What a beautiful night it was for the ladies," Hoover said.
Hoover explains the logo of the group: "The image of the
black dress is the image of a beautiful lady of God, a Irind, lov
ing intelligent lady, a lady who loves, respects, who is strong,
smart and a lady of class and dignity. There is no face on the
image because this is not one lady who sat on the lawn; there
are many joining her, from all walks of life, putting God first
over positive testimonies that may bless or brighten ones day."

have. It also highlights the
Old Testament's concern
for the poor. Most of the
new converts are poor.
What better way to live
than to share your blessings
with others? Remember the
"old days" when neighbors
shared? Barnabas' giving
directs us to examine what
we give and why. He freely
gives without any restric
tions for the benefit of oth
ers His heart is in the right
place. Now there is a cou
ple. Ananias and Sapphira,
in the body who also sell
some land and bring the
money to the apostles.
Their attitude is somewhat
different from Barnabas'. It
is tfbeir possession and their
decision as to what to give.
They appear to want the
same status as Barnabas in
the eyes of the apostles.
Peter questions Ananias
about the gift but he is not
truthful. He dies. A few
hours later, the apostle
questions the wife. She
comes to the same end. The
key point here is that both
of them lied to the Holy
Spirit. They wanted to be
"liked" and were not hon
est with themselves. Their
sin was pretending. Evil
always lurks around to
destroy. The decision to
give is theirs but don't lie
about it.
Life's Application:
When we give or render
service out of insincerity
and ego. God i^ not
pleased. The early church
is the fellowship of believ
ers who are on one accord
and genuinely care about
each other. Sharing is vol
untary. A member of the
body does not have to give
all of their possessions.
You are to do what the
Spirit leads you to do.
Nothing is to be done out of
vain glory or the pastor
calling your name. Neither
are believers to flaunt their
actions as a sign of their
holiness. The fellowship
should not look like the
world but should transform
the world. The character of
believers (what you do
when no one is looking)
represents love, justice, and
mercy. How then can one
be deceitful?
