The early church in Jerusalem was devoted to sharing the good news message of Jesus. As they did so, “the Lord added daily to their number those who were being saved” (Acts 2:47). The kind of numerical growth to be excited about and to highlight is the growth that happens when Jesus saves and adds people to the church. He doesn’t add them without saving them and He doesn’t save them without adding them. We can add to the crowd, but only Jesus can add to the Church.
