Religion, corrupt rulers
There were no weaknesses of the Byzantine Empire except for the fact that Theodora was empress!!
The Byzantine Empire is best know for its role in spreading Christianity and for its capital city, Constantinople, which was originally Byzantium, but Emperor Constantine moved the capital from Rome to Constantinople during the last years of the Roman Empire. Back to Christianity, the Byzantines spread Christianity throughout their lands from Russia to modern-day Turkey. The spread of Christianity stopped when the Umayyad Caliphate in the Middle East rapidly began conquering lands and making many people change from Christianity to Islam.
It states many things about the laws and codes of the Roman times and the Byzantine Empire. It helped the people renew their beliefs in the Roman law. It also helped the people obey the law of the Byzantine Empire.
They did not agree with some of the things he had to do with the society. they didn't agree with Justinian's society
The Roman Empire was falling apart, we might've never known science, medicine, and laws, like we know them now, without God making the Byzantine Empire possible and keeping it going for so long. I mean most things we know come from Rome and their philisophers. All though the Byzantine Empire was mixed with greek culture, it was also mixed with Roman culture, preserving what we know now. In these ways, God used the Byzantine Empire. I hope this helps and its actually better than the anwser I orginally wrote.

The crusades, originally intended to save the Byzantine Empire, among other things, failed to do this and hastened its decline instead. The crusaders sacked Byzantine cities and eventually captured Constantinople in 1204. They then used Constantinople as the capital of what is called the Latin Empire, which it remained, until the Byzantines managed to recapture it in 1264. The Byzantine Empire never really recovered from this, though it held on for almost another 200 years.
