Page 13 - Emperor Constantine Enforcer of the Trinity Doctrine

Above we see an old orthodox painting of Emperor Constantine and his mother Helena. We must note that both Constantine and Helena are setting up an image. They are both holding on to this image and with the other hand are both pointing toward the image. The gesture is for their subjects of the Roman Empire to worship and superstitiously revere this image because it was their will that all do so. Note the solar disk in the center of this strange cross. The image is one of many solar crosses that pagans used long before Christianity came into existence. This image not only symbolized the ancient sun god but also symbolizes the pagan triad or Trinity. To this very day when Roman Catholics want to invoke worship or pray to the Trinity they make the sign (Image) of the cross “in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.” See Ex. 20:3-5 and Isa. 42:8.
The Apostles’ Creed Rt. Rev. Msgr. Gregory Smith 1950 p. 15 “The mystery of the Trinity is the very foundation of our religion, and without a knowledge of this doctrine we can never understand our Redemption by Christ. Because it is so important, we should frequently reaffirm our faith in the Blessed Trinity by reciting the Apostles’ Creed or Act of Faith. But there are simpler ways of expressing our belief in the Trinity and our adoration of the Triune God. Such are the sign of the Cross and the Glory Be to the Father, both of which are used many times at Mass, in the administration of the sacraments, and in the Divine Office. When we make the sign of the cross, saying “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen,” we express the chief mysteries of our faith. The words “In the name” recall the unity of God. “Of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” show our belief in the Trinity of Persons in God.”
