How did the invasions of the mongols weakned the roman empire?
The Huns were not successful invaders of the Roman Empire. They ravaged the eastern part of the empire, but withdrew when they exacted a tribute; they were not interested in invading. Attila then tried to invade Gaul, but he was repelled by a combined force of Romans, Franks, the Burgundians and Visigoths in 451. In 452 he started an invasion of Italy, but had to give up because of famine in Italy and because a Roman attack on the Hun heartland. The successful invasions were those of the Vandals, Sueves and Alans, who invaded Gaul in 406 and moved to Spain in 409. The Vandals and Alans then took over north-western Africa, where they established the Kingdom of the Vandals. This invasion and other events was what led to the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. The eastern part was not affected and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years. Prior to that, the Romans had been able to repel all attempts at invasion for more than 200 years. It was not so much the attempted invasions which could act as a gauge for the military strength. The Romans struggled because there were continuously being attacked by many peoples along the frontiers of the rivers Rhine and Danube. Thus, the attempted invasions were more of an indicator of how difficult it was to defend thousands of miles of borders in an area where there were peoples who were migrating southwards towards these frontiers. Moreover, the Romans were engaged in continuous wars with the mighty Persian Empire. Thus the Romans were overstretched. What was more of an indicator of diminishing Roman military power was an internal one. They increasingly had to rely on Germanic allies to support their troops and on hiring mercenaries and enlisting soldiers form the Germanic peoples. Even the Huns had provided them with mercenaries. The size of the empire and of the military requirements for its defence from continuous attacks meant that the Romans at one point could not recruit enough troops from within the empire.
Why did the Romans try to stop the spread of Christianity?
The Romans did not try to stop the spread of Christianity. There were alternations between periods of toleration and periods of persecution. Some Roman emperors thought that Christianity was a threat to the Roman state because many bureaucrats and soldiers converted to Christianity. The Romans saw their state as being interlinked with Roman Religion. The persecutions were aimed mainly at the civil service and the Christian clergy, rather than Christianity as such. The last and worse persecution, the Great Persecution, failed because it was difficult to implement, because of the resistance of the Christians and because it undermined the stability of the empire. After that, the emperors endorsed Christianity, favored it over other religions and promoted it. Eventually, Christianity became the state religion of the empire. With imperial support, the spread of Christianity accelerated.

Why is the medieval Christian Church considered the heir to the Roman Empire?
Christianity could be considered to be the heir to the Roman empire because after the fall of the west, it was the single unifying force. Christianity did not stop wars nor did it erase ethnic prejudices, but it was the one common thread running through Europe, just as the Roman empire was the common binder of Europe.
