Roman persecutions made Christianity stronger and more resilient. The faith was seen as a threat to the Roman Empire and faced persecution, leading to the growth of underground Christian communities and a reinforcement of their beliefs. Additionally, the persecutions acted as a catalyst for martyrdom, which served to inspire and attract new converts to Christianity.
The extent to which Marcus Aurelius directed, encouraged, or was aware of Christan persecutions is unclear. During his reign the number of persecutions in various areas of the empire seems to have increased. However, in this period it was the local officials who dealt with the Christians and it was them who were responsible for persecutions. They often acted independently. The emperors saw Christianity as a local issue to be dealt with by the local officials. There was no imperial policy with regard to Christianity
