What's Wrong with THIS Picture?

From the new edition of the NIV.  Please don't look it up.  One word has been removed from the text and replaced with another word:

42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to worship together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
I'd love to know, privately, if you were successful in noting the word that doesn't belong and to determine the word I removed.

    So far no takers.

    Two hints:

    1. It points to something that ecclesiolators would, wrongly, assume would belong there.
    2. It's an ax I grind.
