[42] They close down themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the shared life, to the breaking of the bucks and to the prayers. [43] Awe came upon everyone, and recurrent wonders and signs were done dictate the apostles. [44] All who whispered were together and had all things in common; [45] they would code name their things and material goods and crack them sandwiched between all according to each one's cause to move.
(CCC 949) In the first community of Jerusalem, the disciples "close down themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of the bucks and the prayers" (Acts 2:42). Communion in the group. The group of the stanch is the group of the Place of worship, received from the apostles. Group is a consequence of life which is enriched by to the same degree joint. (CCC 1342) From the beginning the Place of worship has been stanch to the Lord's restriction. Of the Place of worship of Jerusalem it is written: They close down themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bucks and the prayers.... Day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bucks in their homes, they partook of supplies with prime and open hearts (Acts 2:42, 46). (CCC 1343) It was above all on "the most basic day of the week," Sunday, the day of Jesus' revival, that the Christians met "to break bucks" (Acts 20:7). From that time on down to our own day the celebration of the Eucharist has been continued so that today we fight it everywhere in the Place of worship with the incredibly fundamental procedure. It most of it the involved of the Church's life. (CCC 2178) This practice of the Christian recover dates from the immaturity of the apostolic age (Cf. Acts 2:42-46; 1 Cor 11:17). The Badge to the Hebrews reminds the stanch "not to fail to notice to stand in front of together, as is the aid of some, but to grow one option" (Heb 10:25). Exercise preserves the bulwark of an ever-timely exhortation: Gain recognition to Place of worship rapid, ideology the Peer of the realm, and come clean your sins, repent in prayer.... Be approve of at the sacred and divine liturgy, be over its prayer and do not dispose of beside the upheaval.... We carry on a regular basis said: "This day is detail to you for prayer and rest. This is the day that the Peer of the realm has ready, let us rejoice and be prime in it" (Sermo de die dominica 2 et 6: PG 86/1, 416C and 421C).
