from Clearview Today with Dr. Abidan Shah
Early Christians weren’t hated simply for being different or for spreading kindness—they were persecuted because of the exclusive claim of the gospel. By refusing to acknowledge Caesar as lord, they disrupted the delicate balance between the Jewish leaders and the Roman authorities. The gospel’s exclusivity was seen as a threat to the entire social order. In today’s episode, we’ll uncover the real reason behind Christian persecution and consider the stunning shock of Paul’s conversion—from persecutor to proclaimer of the very truth that turned the world upside down.Support the showDr. Shah writes a personal letter every week — reflections on Scripture, faith, and living it out with clarity and purpose.
