Well, let me see: we've actually talked about this in our homeschooling
experience -- as Quakers, this is of great interest to us. So, Peter, Paul, and

Also if you look at the book of Acts, the church was communal in nature.
All the belivers were together and had everything in common. Selling their
posessions and goods, they gave to every one who had need. Acts 2:44-45
All the believers were one in heart and mind. no one clamied any of his
posessions was his own., but they shared everything they had. with great
power the apostles continued to testify to the ressurection of the Lord
Jesus and much grace was upon them all. There were no needy persons among
them. From time to time those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought
the money from the sales and put it at the aposles feet, and it was
distributed to anyone as he had need. Acts 4:32-35
Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others. I Corinthians 10:24
Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the
interests of others. Philippians 2:4
God's plan is communal, it is human nature and sin that is the problem.
