Acts 8:1-5

1And Saul agreed completely with killing him. Now on that day a great persecution began against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were forced to scatter throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria.

2Some devout men buried Stephen and made loud lamentation over him.

3But Saul was trying to destroy the church; entering one house after another, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison.

4Now those who had been forced to scatter went around proclaiming the good news of the word.

5Philip went down to the main city of Samaria and began proclaiming the Christ to them.
