Who was an apostle of Jesus who traveled to Rome to convert people to Christianity?

Answer 1

According to the New Testament book of Acts of the Apostles, the apostle Paul traveled to Italy as a prisoner of the Romans for the specific purpose of standing trial before Caesar (Acts 25:11, 12). The account of the circumstances of Paul's journey to Rome can be found in full starting in Acts chapter twenty-one.

As an apostle, Paul's ongoing purpose was to preach the gospel anywhere, under any circumstances, converting as many as possible. That Paul would testify before both Jew and Gentile, small and great was spoken of by Jesus just before Paul himself was converted (Acts 10:9-19; see especially v.15). The last we see of him in scripture (in Acts 28), Paul is living under house arrest in Rome, teaching and preaching God's word.

Answer 2

The Bible doesn't say who took the christian message to Rome. There are several views. The most plausible view is converts of Paul from Asia Minor and Greece moved to Rome and preached the gospel there.

Answer 3

The Bible does not say who went to Rome to win converts to Christianity. However, Paul's Epistle to the Romans demonstrates that by the fifties at the latest, there was already a flourishing Christian community in Rome.

Paul is believed to have gone to Rome, but probably not so much with the intention of converting people to Christianity as to ensure that The Roman Christians were taught the same gospel message as he taught. Peter is traditionally thought to have moved to Rome, to head the church there, but there is no actual evidence that he ever visited Rome. Clement of Rome, while mentioning Peter, gives no hint that he knew of Peter having been in Rome a few decades earlier.
