Antipas was a martyr of the church of Pergamum. This was from the letter to Pergamos in Rev.chapter 2. The church in Pergamum was faithful to the name of Christ, even to the point of martyrdom but it was tolerant of false teachers. These false teachers were proclaiming the right of Christians to indulge in pagan immoralities. Pergamum was a seat of emperor worship.
