They Ceased not to Teach and Preach

The last verse of Acts 5 (Acts 5.42). The pattern of the apostles in the days and months after Christ's ascension was to teach and preach daily. Luke says that they taught in the temple as well as in every house, meaning I think that they were happy to preach and teach wherever there were people willing to listen to them.

It is a good standard and a good pattern for we believers who follow the apostles 2000 years later. The gospel is not meant to be confined to the limits of a church building; it is to be proclaimed wherever and whenever we can gather a crowd who will listen.
