Constantine: A Son of the Church

Constantine was a heathen who was educated in the Christian religion. He accepted the Christian religion and professed it. He overthrew the heathen empire and exterminated all idolatrous religions. He implemented Christian governments all over, gave the order to build many temples, and did everything that a caretaker of the church would do. There are many stories about his virtues, and many of his excellent words and statements have been related. We use them to contradict those previously mentioned stories. It is enough for us that he was a son of the church and professed Christ. He also did much for the Name of Christ.
