In whose reign was the Christian Church not persecuted?
We know that Christians were persecuted by Decius, then during the reign of Valerian, and finally the Great Persecution at the end of Diocletian's reign. There was localised persecution under the emperor Maximinus Thrax. It is unclear whether any persecution took place under Domitian, but Edward Gibbon says that if it did it was of short duration. Most famously, Nero was said to have persecuted the Christians, but scholars say that this seems to have been limited to the city of Rome, and that Christians were not pursued and persecuted for their religion, but as scapegoats for the Great Fire of Rome. In the reigns of all other pagan emperors, Christianity was not officially persecuted and some emperors were quite liberal in their attitudes towards Christianity.
Give reasons why the Jews persecuted the Christians?
First it is necessary to establish whether the Jews persecuted the Christians, and what form that persecution took. Our earliest records come from Paul, a Jew himself. He admits to persecuting the Christians, but it is unclear from his epistles what form this persecution took, or why he persecuted them. Some scholars suggest that Paul had, in fact, only persecuted those Christians who sought to convert Gentiles without the need for circumcision. Paul also tells us that he went to Jerusalem to visit the 'pillars' of the church there. There is nothing in his account to suggest that in the forties and fifties of the first century, the Jerusalem church was actually being persecuted.Acts of the Apostles differs from Paul's own accounts in various ways, including the outright claim that the Jews were persecuting the Christians. On this, it must be remembere that Acts was only written quite some time after the final break between Judaism and Christianity, a time of high tension between the two faiths. It could be unfair to find reasons for persecution of the Christians in Acts of the Apostles, in the absence of any corroborating evidence.For different reasons, Paul and Acts both fail to provide convincing reasons why the Jews persecuted the Christians, if indeed they did.

What is persecution of faith?
Persecution of faith is any action taken to prevent or deter others from holding whatever religious beliefs they choose and worshipping as they please, subject only to the public good. It includes punishments meted out for religious beliefs or worship, official sanctions, damage to temples, mosques or churches, or theft of religious property. In some circumstances it can even include officially refusing to register a religion or grant it the right to hold services or perform public sacrifices. It is the same whether, for example, Christians were persecuted by pagans or Christians persecuted pagans.
