(Continued)
As we study the book of Acts
we are made to wonder at the
boldness and success of the
Apostles teaching under ad
verse circumstances.
Many of the Jews were jeal
ous of their success in preach
ing the new doctrine, and per
secuted them unmercifully.
Stephen a man full of faith
and the Holy Spirit was killed
by the enraged people and thus
became the first christian
martyr.
Consenting to Stephens death
was Saul of Tarsus, later called
the Apostle Paul, who, next to
Christ, was. undoubtedly the
greatest influence in the estab
lishment of the Church.
