Herod Persecutes the Church

Acts 12:1-5
1
And at the same time, Herod the king stretched forth his hands, to afflict some of the church.
2
And he killed James, the brother of John, With the sword.
3
And seeing that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to take up Peter also. Now it was in the days of the Azymes.
4
And when he had apprehended him, he cast him into prison, delivering him to four files of soldiers, to be kept, intending, after the pasch, to bring him forth to the people.
5
Peter therefore was kept in prison. But prayer was made without ceasing by the church unto God for him.
