Constantine Brings Witchcraft The Worship of Idol False Gods Into The Church
At left, we see a mosaic with the gold image of Ishtar, Inanna, Isis or Venus being given to Bishop Steven. Constantine is giving an idol of this Mother Goddess to his Imperial Church to be worshiped and renamed “Mary”. History of the Byzantine Empire by Professor A. A. Vasiliev and Robert L.

beginning to embellish with images. [Idol worship is a practice which Constantine started and promoted.] In the fourth and fifth centuries image-worship rose and developed in the [Catholic] Christian church.” (Early Roman Catholic founders worshiped idol gods and goddesses, and gave us the pluralistic trinity.)

Reynolds Professor of History Copyright 1952, by the Regents of the University of Wisconsin Second English Edition, Revised page 58-59: “When Constantine decided to create a new capital, he did not choose Byzantium at once. For a while, at least, he considered Naissus (Nish) where he was born, Sardica (Sofia), or Thessalonica. His attention turned particularly to Troy, the city of Aeneas, who according to tradition, had come to Latium in Italy, and laid the foundations for the Roman state. The Emperor set out personally to the famous place, where he himself defined the limits of the future city. The gates had already been constructed when, as Sozomen, the Christian writer of the fifth century, related, one night God visited Constantine in a dream and induced him to look for a different site for his capital. After this Constantine’s choice fell definitely upon Byzantium. Even a century later, travelers sailing near the shores of Troy could see the unfinished structures begun by Constantine.
Byzantium, which had not yet fully recovered from the severe destruction caused by Septimius Severus, was at that time a mere village and occupied only part of the cape extending to the Sea of Marmora. In 324 AD Constantine decided upon the foundation of the new capital, and in 325 the construction of the main buildings was begun. Christian legend tells that the Emperor, with spear in hand, was outlining the boundaries of the city when his courtiers, astonished by the wide dimensions planned for the capital, asked him, “How long, our Lord, will you keep going?” He answered, “I shall keep on until he who walks ahead of me will stop.” This was meant to indicate that some divine power [a fallen evil spirit?] was leading him. Laborers and materials for the construction work were gathered from everywhere. Pagan monuments of Rome, Athens, Alexandria, Ephesus, and Antioch were used in beautifying the new capital. Forty thousand Goth soldiers, the so-called “foederati,” participated in the construction of the new
