Christians were falsely suspected of plotting to overthrow Rome. They worshipped privately and/or secretly, which understandably caused others to suspect them of plotting something. Beause Jesus stressed pacifism, Christians refused to fight in the Roman Army, which led people to think that they were anti-Roman. This was not true; they just did not want to kill. In the same way, the Christians' understanding that the barriers of peoples/countries are artificial and that all are one in Jesus was also misinterpreted as an anti-Roman belief. For these reasons, the Roman rulers, and most non-Christian Romans, were afraid of Christianity.
