Best Answer

The nearest the Christian Church came to being an underground religion was during the Great Persecution, but this only lasted from 303 to 305 CE in the west, or 303 to 311 in the eastern empire. Even then, the main focus of persecution was on the clergy, with most Christians being ignored. Clearly the Church could survive in these circumstances for from two to eight years.
