Nero (Roman emperor AD 54–68), persecution stirred up in AD 64. In this persecution the apostle Paul was killed and the apostle Peter crucified in Rome. This first persecution ceased under Vespasian ( AD 69–79).

2.

Domitian (Roman emperor AD 81–96). John, the apostle and evangelist was exiled to Patmos . After the death of Domitian, John was released and came to Ephesus in AD 97, where he wrote his Gospel and where he lived until the time of Trajan.

3.

Trajan (Roman emperor AD 98–117). Ignatius, the bishop of Antioch suffered in this persecution.

4.

Marcus Aurelius, his other name being Antoninus Verus (Roman emperor AD 161–180). Polycarp, the bishop of Smyrna, and the Christian martyrs of Lyons and Vienne, two cities in France, were martyred in this persecution.

5.

Septimius Severus (Roman emperor AD 193–211). This persecution extended to northern Africa, which was a Roman province.

6.

Maximinus, Gaius Julius Verus (Roman emperor AD 235–238).

7.

Decius (Roman emperor AD 249–251). Fabian martyred; Cyprian, bishop of Carthage, forced into exile; and Origen was imprisoned and tortured.

8.

Valerian (Roman emperor AD 253–260).

9.

Aurelian (Roman emperor AD 270–275).

10. Diocletian (Gaius Aurelius Valerius Diocletianus, reigned AD 284–305) and Maximian (reigned AD 285–305) governed as emperors together. Diocletian began his furious persecution against the Christians in 303. The emperor ordered the doors of the Christian church at Nicomedia, the capital, to be barred, and then burnt the edifice with 600 Christians within. Many edicts were issued by him against Christians. Churches were demolished, Christian books were seized and burnt, Christians were persecuted, imprisoned, tortured and killed. The persecution brought a considerable number of martyrs, and it continued until 313, when Emperor Constantine set Christians free and proclaimed religious freedom.
