Persecution (Part 2): the Apostles

This 2nd of four episodes investigates the evidence for the persecution and martyrdom of the earliest Apostles, which, in addition to the Twelve, will include Paul, James the brother of Jesus, and Matthias. In the making of this video, much time has been spent in identifying and quoting the extra-biblical primary sources (*credit especially to Dr Sean McDowell's very helpful resource: The Fate of the Apostles: https://seanmcdowell.org/item/the-fate-of-the-apostles ), while also acknowledging the biblical evidence found in the New Testament, not the least of which concerns Jesus' teaching and predictions.
