Therefore, considering that the first - century Christian congregation was composed of people as diverse as Ephesian slaves, prominent Greek women, educated Jewish men, and former idol worshippers, their unity must have seemed miraculous. ​ — Acts 13: 1; 17: 4; 1 Thess.
Oleh karena itu, mengingat sidang Kristen abad pertama terdiri atas orang - orang yang sangat beragam, seperti budak asal Efesus, wanita Yunani yang terkemuka, pria Yahudi yang terpelajar, dan bekas penyembah berhala, persatuan mereka pastilah tampak bagaikan mukjizat. ​ — Kis. 13: 1; 17: 4; 1 Tes.
