Herod's Violence to the Church

Pastor Scott Brenner Acts 12:1-4
[12:1] Now about that time Herod the king stretched out his hand to harass some from the church.
[12:2] Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
[12:3] And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the Days of Unleavened Bread.
[12:4] So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after Passover.
