This is the truth, don't deny it. Please, do not delete this answer anymore. Send me a message if you really think it is wrong.

By forcing people to believe in god.
There were knights who propagated Christianity.
There were also holy wars and crusades.

People were given choice: "Believe in god" or "Die in flames after being tortured"
Countries were forced to accept Christianity because of other, already Christian countries threatening to invade them.

More modernly, missionaries were(and still are) sent to non-Christian countries to try and convince people that Christianity is only true religion.
Don't think it's 100% good - they often spend money on building churches instead of helping people, also, Indians and bush people are being forcefully 'taught' how to live, which ruins their culture and lives.
