Why were christans prosecuted in the first three centuries?
I think you mean: "Why were Christians persecuted - " They were not only persecuted in the first three centuries, but have always been persecuted, right up to the present day. And it is because their master, Jesus was persecuted - A disciple is not above his master! In Matthew 5 we see that there is a blessing attached to persecutation for Jesus sake, and this state is quite normal for Jesus followers. - 10. Blessed [are] they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11. Blessed are ye, when [men] shall revile you, and persecute [you], and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great [is] your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
