Acts 5:1-4

Ananias and Sapphira

1But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property, 2and with his wife’s knowledge ahe kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and blaid it at the apostlesfeet. 3But Peter said, “Ananias, why has cSatan filled your heart to lie dto the Holy Spirit and eto keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land? 4While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but fto God.”
