They tend to forced the territories that they conquered to adopt Christianity. At that time, Aztec has their own religion. Cortes was a devout and saw Aztec's religion as a sin.

If he managed to create the perception, the Spanish empire will had an opportunity to take a way the resources that exist in the new Spain territory (this include the resources of the people form Aztec)

- He wanted to show the Aztecs that their empire should no longer exist and was weak in comparison to Spain’s empire.
