putting all they had at his disposal

"You never find the Apostle Paul... saying, 'Brethren, this is a bad business, and I can offer you no amelioration. What cannot be cured I am afraid will have to be endured.' These men followed [Christ] gladly. Gladly they suffered in his cause, thinking themselves in some way privileged. They did it for the love of him because they were his friends, seeking his interests as he was theirs, putting all they had at his disposal, as he had put all he had at theirs. Having all things common, they were not slaves but friends--and yet in a sense slaves as never before."
