It was a political decision, he blended pagan beliefs and Christianity. Never about any repentance or belief .

When the Emperor Constantine declared himself to be the Summus Pontifex, what followed was more than ten centuries of Dark Ages, during which time people who professed Christ rather than Mary or the Popes, people who denied transubstantiation, were fed to lions or burned at the stake. During the Dark Ages, for a common person to read the Bible was a sin for which there was no forgiveness; and so the people were spoon-fed from the papist pulpit. The Bible was said to exist only in the Latin text and the common and largely illiterate people could learn the stories that were in the Bible from paintings and stained glass windows. Those who first made the Bible available in the language of the people were killed for their trouble; but when Martin Luther quoted Paul, of all people, the Protestant Reformation began. The gospel that saves is that Christ accomplished everything needed to save you from sin and death when he died on the cross for sins. The cross took your sin problem out of the way already, and through his resurrection you can have free righteousness on Christ’s behalf through faith (2 Cor 5:21, Rom 4:24-25; Rom 5:1). Do you believe this? Do you trust this gospel? By trusting his death and resurrection for your salvation and adding no other works or church traditions you are sealed with the Holy Ghost (Eph 1:13, Rom 4:5). This latter “no works” disclaimer is necessary for all those who would make God’s grace powerless to save by adding any necessary work to Christ’s finished work (e.g. baptism, confessions, prayers, experiences, etc.)

So it wasn’t Jesus’s message of peace and love that was the converting force, it was the symbol of the cross?

@lettuceman9439 Месяц назад

That was the converting force specially to how early Christianity established itself amongst the poor and downtrodden but also that Christianity actively sought out converts and inspired faith which fueled said missions from the city of the Roman empire to the mountains of Armenia. Christianity profoundly became a historic force since it completely disregarded economic and political incentives to convert kingdoms and tribes during it's early centuries and after the fall of the Western Empire.

@michaelfalsia6062 5 месяцев назад

What emerges out of this pseudo conversion of Constantine is a faith that ultimately is far removed from the faith taught by the Lord Jesus and His inspired apostles in the New Covenant writings. New Covenant Christianity knows nothing of a Christian society endorsed and protected by a secular ruler or government. Nor does anyone who comes to true faith in Jesus by a vision or a dream. Romans 10:10-17. Constantine may have seen a vision or had a dream, but that is the work of Satan not God. 2 Thessalonians 2:8-14. Revelation 13:16; 16:13. Jesus said that His Kingdom is not of this world. He did not send his apostles and His disciples into the world to build a Christian civilization or particular nation states! Emphatically not.

@Pookielicious11 5 месяцев назад

I've been trying to tell otters about this. He centered himself, which the elites no doubt caught onto and have continued to bastardize Christianity for themselves. Freaking Tax exemption since Ancient times blows my mind. It shows how intentional it's all been. Christianity doesn't need to be destroyed. It needs to be saved.

@kuyab9122 2 месяца назад

"He did not send his apostles and His disciples into the world to build a Christian civilization or particular nation states! Emphatically not." Ever heard of The Great Commission? "Therefore go and make disciples of all NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit," (Matthew 28:19, NIV)

@michaelfalsia6062 Месяц назад

@kuyab9122 That is exactly what I was saying. My Kingdom is NOT of this world. The great commission is about making disciples out from all nations etc. Baptizing THEM etc.... The Greek is quite clear about baptizing only disciples into the evangelical faith. We agree. Revelation 5:9,10 complements Matthew 28:18-20.

BUT WHO MADE MADE JESUS A CHRISTIAN OR WAS THAT HIS BIRTH NAME🤔

@deb681 Месяц назад

Jesus is not Christian. He is the Christ. Christians follow Jesus - in the Book of Isaiah - before Christ is born, it is prophesied - ”For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.“ - Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The biggest con....Christianity. How can one of the youngest religion alongside Islam be the one true religion, when the oldest known religion's are Hinduism, Judaism, and the good old Paganism. Putting the horse before the cart.

@lettuceman9439 Месяц назад

??? Christianity spread is pretty clear even in secular eyes. 1) It actively sought to convert and as a historic force it had the attributes which disregarded economic and geographical incentives which enabled it to holdout in even isolated pockets, Remember Christianity even before Rome Converted were already the state religion of Armenia and Ethiopia while various Germanic Tribes had already converted. 2) Christianity offered more during the 3rd century crisis. It provided safety nets and Christianity emphasis on charity and repentance means that specifically target those in the lower caste of society 3) It's attractive to Women, Remember in the Ancient World wives were more of a property of the patriach. Christianity enforcement of monogamy and the agreement that the husband would provide and stay faithful gave it a significant edge, specially in Constantine case since his mother was a Christian. 4) Christianity is intellectual, Not to the pretentious kind but the christianity actively studied itself and the world, that might be antithetical to the current image of Christianity but Christianity even today is the largest patron of arts and science. Again what I mean by intellectual is that Christianity and also Islam is that both developed to explain and investigate the nature of their faith which on the long term enabled doctrines to be codified and expand, Something which Hinduism struggled with during India's early independence and even today.

@lettuceman9439 Месяц назад

One Slavs have yet appeared in Europe. The Cross is pretty obvious since you know the "Crucifixion of Jesus Christ" The Chinro is a acronym written in Koine Greek taking the first letters of Jesus Christ, The Bible (The New Testament) itself was originally in Koine Greek. Egyptian?, Sure bro Nubia and Ethiopia next door were the first christian Kingdoms
