Things I Didn't Know as a Complementarian: Women in Ministry part 6 00:14:53 – 00:15:54

The persecution resulted in everyone fleeing Jerusalem except the apostles. If persecution targeted leaders, the non-leaders should have stayed.

Acts 8:1: 'they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.' The fact that it was the non-leaders who fled contradicts the claim that persecution targeted only leaders.
