At first glance, they seemed like a couple with lots of faith.
Especially, since they were an eyewitness of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit over the early church.
But by this time, faith and emotions were already walking hand-in-hand.
As proof of that, when they saw their friend Barnabas sell his possessions and deposit the money at the apostles' feet, they also felt motivated to sell a property and put it to good use at the service of the Kingdom of God.
However, after seeing the amounts of money that was being collected, Ananias agreed with his wife to keep back part of the proceeds and only bring a certain quantity to be laid at the apostles' feet.
There are many couples out there who share this same kind of faith, just like they did.
A faith that is divided between the Lord and money.
Conclusion: they end up losing their money and, worse of all, their life.
