Acts 8:1-4

1 Saul agreed that the killing of Stephen was good. On that day the church of Jerusalem began to be persecuted, and all the believers, except the apostles, were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria.

2 And some religious people buried Stephen and cried loudly for him.

3 Saul was also trying to destroy the church, going from house to house, dragging out men and women and putting them in jail.

4 And wherever they were scattered, they told people the Good News.
