Acts 8:1-3 - Saul Attempts To Destroy The Church

¹ And Saul was in full agreement with Stephen being put to death. And a great persecution broke out against the Jerusalem church, and all the disciples, except the apostles, were scattered throughout the districts of Judea and Samaria. ² The godly men who buried Stephen's body mourned over his loss very deeply. ³ But Saul brought devastation to the church by entering everyone's house and dragging men and women off to jail.
