No, I'd say that early church in Jerusalem was living like that because they had been told that Jerusalem was going to be destroyed in their lifetimes, and that everyone in Judaea was going to have to flee to the hills.
In addition to being told they were going to be persecuted, hated, thrown in jail, betrayed by their families, etc.
Was Jesus correct when He said this:
“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues.You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak;for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.“Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly,
I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes. - Matthew 10:16-23

Did the Son of Man come before any of them made it through all of the cities of Israel?
Wrong.
It occurred from 66AD - 70AD (3.5 years)
Um.....that's because Jesus made it clear that it would happen to them, not some people 2,000 years into the future.
Wrong Again !!!!
Was Peter correct in what he said?
When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language.Then they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, “Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?And how is it that we hear, each in our own language in which we were born?Parthians and Medes and Elamites, those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,Cretans and Arabs—we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God.”So they were all amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “Whatever could this mean?”Others mocking said, “They are full of new wine.”But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words.For these are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day.But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.I will show wonders in heaven above And signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the L ord.And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.’ - Acts 2:1-21

If not, why did He very clearly state that what was prophesied in Joel was happening in Acts 2, in 30 AD?
