In the 300 years from the crucifixion of Christ to the conversion of Emperor Constantine, polytheistic Roman emperors initiated no more than four general persecutions of Christians. Local administrators and governors incited some anti-Christian violence of their own. Still, if we combine all the victims of all these persecutions, it turns out that in these three centuries, the polytheistic Romans killed no more than a few thousand Christians.

SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS CAUSES[EDIT]
Martyrdom of Calepodius (intaglio print)
Before 250 AD, persecution was not empire-wide; it was localized, sporadic, often mob-led, with occasional actions from local authorities.[11]:86[12] Reasons for persecution can be understood by looking at a few main areas of conflict.
“The exclusive sovereignty of Christ clashed with Caesar’s claims to his own exclusive sovereignty.”[11]:87 The Roman empire practised religious Syncretism and did not demand loyalty to one god, but they did demand preeminent loyalty to the state, and this was expected to be demonstrated through the practices of the state religion with numerous feast and festival days throughout the year.[13]:84–90[14]The nature of Christian monotheism prevented Christians from participating in anything involving ‘other gods’.[15]:60 Christians did not participate in feast days or processionals or offer sacrifices or light incense to the gods; this produced hostility.[12] They refused to offer incense to the Roman emperor, and in the minds of the people, the “emperor, when viewed as a god, was … the embodiment of the Roman empire”,[16] so Christians were seen as disloyal to both.[11]:87[17]:23 In Rome, “religion could be tolerated only as long as it contributed to the stability of the state” which would “brook no rival for the allegiance of its subjects. The state was the highest good in a union of state and religion.”[11]:87 In Christian monotheism the state was not the highest good.[11]:87[15]:60
