Résumé

This book explores the complex and multifaceted relationship between the early Christian church and the Roman Empire, focusing on how the church navigated its identity, authority, and mission in a world dominated by imperial power. Through the lens of the Acts of the Apostles and the writings of Paul, the text examines the theological, social, and political tensions that shaped the early Christian movement as it spread across the Roman world.
It analyzes key themes such as apostolic authority, the rejection of Roman religious practices, the inclusion of Gentiles, the challenges of heresy and division, and the radical message of the gospel in the face of persecution and imperial opposition. The book highlights the strategic responses of the apostles, their resilience in the face of adversity, and the transformative power of the gospel in a world defined by imperial control and social stratification.
Ultimately, it underscores the subversive and redemptive nature of the early church's witness, which not only challenged the Roman order but also laid the foundation for the growth of Christianity as a global faith.
