Christianity spread slowly throughout the Roman Empire for about three hundred years. Then, during the fourth century, it expanded from a fairly minor religion, estimated at involving around ten per cent of the population, to becoming the state religion of the Roman Empire.

The cause of this sudden expansion was the decision of Emperor Constantine to give Christianity state patronage. Whether or not Constantine was ever a Christian himself, he certainly saw imperial benefits in supporting Christianity. He believed that Christianity would help bring unity to the empire, and gave state financial support to the new religion, while stripping the pagan temples of their treasures and eventually persecuting the pagans. His sons continued Constantine's policies. Twenty five years after Constantine's death, Christians still made up a minority of the population, but by 391 CE the emperor was able to declare Christianity the state religion and make the public worship of pagan gods illegal.

Christianity was able to spread so quickly through the Roman Empire because what was spread was not Christianity but pagan beliefs that Rome was already accustomed too with Christian names for these pagan belief systems taped over the original pagan names so all the Romans had to do was change the names of things but keep their belief systems fully in tact. Look up Constantine, also look up "The Birthday of the Unconquerable Sun" which originates with ancient Babylon where Nimrod (referred to outside The Bible as Gilgamesh) was born on December 25, his death was ordered by Noah for marrying his mother (Semiramis) and fathering a child with her. Nimrod was subsequently elevated to deity status (The Sun God) by his wife/mother who declared that her son's birth would be remembered until the end of time. She was later depicted as mother with child which is where the Roman Catholic church got the virgin Mary with Christ Child. We can confirm this quite easily by entering into a Catholic church, observing the rituals they engage in, then attempting to find these rituals in the bible they pretend to preach from. The only place these rituals can be found were in the first temple where those who worshiped God faced the west while worshiping and those who worshiped Nimrod faced the east while worshiping.

Paul of Tarsus, who was previously known as Saul spread Christianity as the first Christian missionary, or person who spreads their belief to non-believers. He travelled across the Roman Empire, sending Christian messages to gentiles and non-Jewish communities as well as to Jews. This allowed more people to follow the faith. He preached about Christianity in new areas where no one had preached before, and established Christianity there.
