The most important factor which has been ascribed to people converting to Christianity was the promise of salvation in the afterlife. Roman religion and other polytheistic religions just said that after death people went to the underworld, but did not have much to say about the afterlife.

Another factor was that the Christians had a missionary zeal and actively pursued converting people, whereas there was no such missionary fervour in other religions.
