What Happened to Paul Under Nero? [Eschatology Matters]

Author: Fight Laugh Feast USA May 19, 2026 Duration: 6:27

What really happened to the Apostle Paul after the Book of Acts ends?

In this episode of the Revelation Series, Jay Rogers explores the dramatic final chapter of Paul’s life during the reign of Emperor Nero—and the violent persecution that changed the early church forever.

After the Great Fire of Rome in AD 64, Nero blamed Christians for the empire’s chaos, unleashing one of the first major persecutions in Christian history. According to early church testimony, both Peter and Paul would ultimately die in Rome.

In this episode:

Why the Book of Acts ends so abruptly
Paul’s final imprisonment under Nero
The rise of Roman persecution after the Great Fire
The historical evidence surrounding Paul’s martyrdom
Paul’s final words and legacy

Far from a story of defeat, Paul’s death became a powerful witness to the spread of the Gospel at the very center of the Roman Empire.
