When the Jews had listened toStephen's address, they were highly annoyed, but still looked for a strongerreason to punish him. The opportunity came when Stephen full of the holy spiritlooked up to heaven and declared. Behold, i see the heavens opened and the sonof man standing at the right hand of God. The people who saw this as the heightof blasphemy, cast him out of the city and stoned him. The witnesses laid downthe: - garments at the feet of a young mar. called Saul. As they stoned him.Stephen prayed, Lord, do not hold this sin against them. He died immediately.This was followed by great persecution in the church in Jerusalem, making thechurch to scatterto different places. Acts 7:1-60
