However, he was falsely accused of blasphemy and brought before the Jewish council. Stephen boldly defended his faith, recounting the history of Israel and their rejection of God's messengers.

This marked a significant shift in thinking and helped to establish Christianity as a separate and distinct faith from Judaism.
