Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Over time, the Christian church and faith grew more organized. In 313 AD, the Emperor Constantine issued the Edict of Milan, which accepted Christianity: 10 years later, it had become the official religion of the Roman Empire.

Detailed explanation-2: -By approving Christianity, the Roman state directly undermined its religious traditions. Finally, by this time, Romans considered their emperor a god. But the Christian belief in one god-who was not the emperor-weakened the authority and credibility of the emperor.

Detailed explanation-3: -Christianity spread throughout the early Roman Empire despite persecutions due to conflicts with the pagan state religion. When the Western Roman Empire fell in 476, the Catholic Church competed with Arian Christians for the conversion of the barbarian tribes and quickly became the dominant form of Christianity.

Detailed explanation-4: -Q: Who spread Christianity? After the death of Jesus, the disciple Paul had the most significant role in the spread of Christianity. He traveled to many places and preached to people to convert them.
