In the days of the early Christian church, new believers faced opposition from both the religious pluralism of the Roman Empire and the traditional monotheistic religion of the Jews. This resulted in a violent intolerance toward the budding Christian faith. Yet, armed only with the belief that Jesus the Nazarene was the one true way to have peace with Creator God, these young Christians continued to spread their message. With a price on his head, one converted Pharisee and a small group of Jesus' followers set out, with the Good News of a Deliverer, to challenge and conquer an immoral pagan world. In this second volume of the Acts of the Spirit-Filled series, Johnnie R. Jones brings life to a sometimes-incredible story of spiritual fire through prisons, demons, and bloodthirsty oppositions from religious and city leaders-all based on real events documented in the Bible's Book of Acts. Journey through this fictional narrative of the events that thrust Christianity into an unpredictable first century. The Volume 2 narrative begins shortly after the dramatic beheading of the apostle James and includes events described in Chapters 12-24 of the New Testament Book of Acts.
