buildings...Toward the spring of 330 AD the work had progressed to such an extent that Constantine found it possible to dedicate the new capital officially. The dedication took place on May 11, 330 and was followed by celebrations and festivities which lasted forty days.” [A gold chariot and idols of the sun god were brought out for this pagan party!]
 337 AD Constantine grows ill and is baptized on his death bead by Eusebius. He dies on May 22, 337 AD. His body was taken to the Catholic Church of the Holy Apostles, to his mausoleum. The Roman senate decided to proclaim Constantine as a deity to be prayed to and worshipped. Some pray to this dead man to this very day. This Pagan murder and idolater enforced the Trinity Doctrine and triadic baptism upon his vast empire. Many believe in the Trinity today and have no ideal were it came from, or who “Christianized” it. Below we give even more historical documentation about this man and his real character.
A History of Christianity by Paul Johnson 1976 page 67: “Although Constantine claimed that he was the thirteenth Apostle, his was no sudden Damascus conversion. Indeed it is highly doubtful that he ever truly abandoned sun-worship. After his professed acceptance of Christianity, he built a triumphal arch to the sun god and in Constantinople set up a statue of the same sun god bearing his own features. He was finally deified after his death by official edict in the Empire, as were many Roman rulers.”
The Secret Archives of the Vatican written by Maria Ambrosini and Mary Willis 1996 page 36 states: “Constantine was an army brat; he had grown up knowing the Mithraic (Sun god) religion, harsh and pure as the code of military justice. We are not certain how much of a Christian he was; he was baptized only on his deathbed, and he once referred to himself as “a bishop of those outside the Church” the bishop of unbelievers [in other words, he was a bishop of pagans].
The story of Civilization: “Part 3, Caesar and Christ a History of Roman Civilization and of Christianity from their beginnings to AD 325” by Will Durant 1944, page 655 informs us that: “In his Gallic court he [Constantine] had surrounded himself with pagan scholars and philosophers. After his (so-called) conversion he seldom conformed to the ceremonial requirements of Christian worship. His letters to [Catholic] Christian bishops make it clear that he cared little for theological differences that agitated Christendom-though he was willing to suppress dissent in the interests of imperial unity. Through-out his reign he treated his bishops as his political aids; he summoned them, presided over their councils, and agreed to enforce whatever opinion their majority should formulate. A real believer would have been a Christian first and a statesman afterward; with Constantine it was reverse. Christianity was to him a means, not an end.”
The History of the Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire By Edward Gibbon 1946 Chapter 20, pages 561-563 informs us of the historical facts that: “Whatever symptoms of Christian piety might transpire in the discourses or actions of Constantine, he persevered till he was near forty years of age in the practice of the established religion; and the same conduct, which in the court of Nicmedia might be imputed to his fear, could
