The Early Christian World
Christianity is originally from Judea. Romans disagreed with the ideas of
Christianity and tried to put an end to it. Teachings were to only be spread/taught to
Jews. In the effort to spread their beliefs many
Christians were arrested or killed. Emperor Constantine was the main person
who encouraged Christianity to become the official religion of Rome
