Paradigm Shift in Early Christianity
Early Christians defied traditional religious conventions by not having temples, material sacrifices, priests, or pilgrimage mandates. They met in homes, not grand structures, and believed no place was holier than another due to the spirit within them. This paradigm shift challenged the Roman view of religion, emphasizing worship as akin to family rather than government, a stark departure from the established norms of the time.
