Why were Christians persecuted by the Roman Empire?
Was Christianity illegal from the beginning? Was persecution constant throughout the Roman world? And were Christians targeted simply because the Romans hated Christianity?
The answer is more complicated than many people realize.
In this episode, we'll explore the different factors that contributed to periods of persecution, including Roman religious expectations, loyalty to the emperor, local hostility, and the refusal of Christians to participate in certain aspects of public religious life.
We'll also look at an important reality of early Christian history: persecution was not constant everywhere or at all times.
Some Christians experienced intense suffering, while others lived for long periods with relative peace.
Understanding that distinction helps us see the historical reality behind the stories of persecution—and prepares us to meet some of the Christians who paid the ultimate price for their faith.
