Apostles were crucial to the spread of Christianity in Rome, particularly in the first century. They played a key role in establishing early Christian communities and spreading the teachings of Jesus throughout the Roman Empire. Their missionary work and writings helped to shape Christian doctrine and provide a foundation for the Church's growth in a predominantly pagan society. As the faith expanded, the apostles' influence contributed to Christianity becoming a significant religious and cultural force in Rome.

Pope Anicetus (156-166), during the course of a theological argument with the venerable Polycarp of Smyrna, claimed that Peter had travelled to Rome to lead the Christians there and had been beheaded in Rome, meaning that he (Anicetus) spoke with the authority of Peter. From this time forward, the bishops of Rome increasingly insisted that they were the successors of St Peter, until it is now an article of faith that they are.
