Is Christianity Communist/Socialist?

The generous distribution of wealth that took place in Acts chapters four and five was a response to an emergency. It wasn't something that all Christians did everywhere. It only happened in Jerusalem.

Also, it was voluntary. The Apostles never demanded it of anyone. People were still free to decide what to do with what they owned - whether they would sell it and give the proceeds or not.
