Christianity provided its followers with nonmaterial benefits that the traditional Roman culture and religions did not. Christianity also was open in sharing its beliefs, unlike the competing new Mystery Religions that appeared in the Roman Empire at the same time. Early Christianity also encouraged education and literacy among its followers so that they could read and understand the scriptures, this permitted many christians to be hired into the bureaucracy of the Roman Empire, even at times when the Empire made Christianity illegal.
