Jesus came to try to make Salvation as EASY as He possibly could!-And that's why the Religionists crucified Him, that's why they killed Him, because the Church System of the day as good as said it couldn't be done without THEM, without following all of their complicated laws, traditions & religious rigmarole! But Jesus came and showed them that they didn't have to go to church on Sunday-or Saturday or Friday or any other day of the week! They didn't have to follow the Church laws and rules and regulations and the Ten Commandments and all the rest. All they had to do was simply confess that they were sinners and needed Salvation and ask Jesus to give it to them!

Historians such as Tacitus, Tertullian, Suetonius and many others recorded how Christianity faced unprecedented persecution after the death of Christ and the rise of Emperor Nero to power. All of the original apostles of Christ faced trials and were put to death either by the Roman Empire or local authority figures - but they all died for their faith.
