Who was it then that killed the apostles?

Good point. We were told earlier that Babylon which is "Jerusalem" slaughtered the apostles and prophets and now it is Rome.

It actually was Rome as in the “Roman Empire” based in Rome. That is often lost in these discussions. Keep in mind that the “Roman Church” was essentially started by the Roman emperor who incorporated many of the pagan customs we see in the RCC today. If you follow that through, it was the Roman authority who killed the apostles and prophets with cooperation from some of the Jewish elite. It was then the Roman emperor who started the Roman church so it’s just a continuation of Roman influence. It will also be the revived Roman Empire area who will come against Israel in the end. That should scare any who follow the Roman Church.
