The spread of Christianity



Christianity grew steadily and it spread on almost all over the world. It flourished on the third century.

Christianity spread when it became appealing to the people during that time because it promotes monotheism and it indicates that Christianity is for everybody: for men, for women, for rich and for poor. It also promised a certain thing for everybody: that if you believe and have faith in Christ, you will be saved and will have an eternal life. Spread of Christianity was a success by the help of the apostles and the preachers.

On 380 CE, Emperor Theodosius made Christianity the official religion of the Roman empire.
