The apostles, as described in the New Testament, primarily faced persecution for preaching the message of Jesus Christ, which was viewed as a challenge to the religious and political authorities of their time. They were often accused of blasphemy, disturbing the peace, and violating Jewish laws, particularly for their teachings about Jesus as the Messiah. In some instances, they were imprisoned or beaten for these offenses, but the New Testament portrays them as acting in obedience to their faith rather than committing crimes in a conventional sense.
