Not sure you're seeing this exactly right?

My take is this: All legit organization must be voluntary. The ecclesia at its inception in Acts was exactly that, *not at all* a state-compelled communism. And it was a roaring success for a time.

It was only considerably later--after concentrated persecution resulting in diaspora--that Paul found it necessary to take up a collection for "the po' folks back home" in Jerusalem. And even then, that gift was gathered in a 💯% voluntary fashion, for "God loves a cheerful giver."
