Simcha Jacobovici is a Jew and those people celebrate every year Hanukkah against Greek influence, so they made a documentary without mention the 12 gods of Rome, the Pantheon, god Helios with the sun rays in his head because all that releted to Greeks
I'm studying church history at FAU in Erlangen. This is entertaining but a bit sensationalistic, as if the journalist has discovered something that the scholars did not know. I want to clear up some things. Firstly, the theologians, church historians and archaeologists are not all agreed about the extent of Constantine's so-called conversion, which was described by the church father Eusebius in a clearly biased manner. We simply do not have unbiased written accounts from this period! We can, however, look at the laws he created, and his actions. Constantine did make a lot of laws regarding the churches, donated huge sums of money to build churches, outlawed crucifixion and gladiator death matches, granted all Romans freedom of religion and overall was one of the best emperors. However, he also killed his wife and son, and did not officially become a Christian till just before his death. He did not "convert the whole Roman world" to Christianity, but merely legalized and promoted it. Actually, he was unpopular among the pagans because he put so many Christians in high places. There were many religions in the Roman Empire, some were illegal (like the cult of Dionysus), but Constantine legalized Christianity and returned the goods plundered by previous emperors. Christianity did not officially become a state religion until the reign of Theodosius at the end of the century. Constantine also did not "create" Christianity, as some suppose. He did make Dies Sol Invictus (Day of the sun) an official holiday for all Romans, but the Christians had been meeting on Sundays for a long time, so this created a syncretized form of Christianity. Most Christians were converted heathens, so they kept many of their cultural practices and bit by bit adapted them to their "new faith", including adding 25 December, birthday of Mithras, to the Christian calendar as Jesus' birthday. Early Christian theologians such as Justin Martyr and Eusebius saw Mithraism as a satanic counterfeit of Christianity and preached against this heathen cult. Sadly, Constantine was antisemitic towards Jews (mainly due to the political revolts by Jews), and brought Christianity further from its Jewish roots. He also brought some shady theology into it, as well, like the idea that God wanted him to be emperor (otherwise, why did he win the battle). This kind of deterministic triumphalism has afflicted Western Christianity ever since. There really is very little that Yeshua shares with Mithras or Mithraic relgion, except for the imagery (rays of light), the concept of a god having a son (which all Roman religions had) and some pagan rituals which were kept and "christianized" like Christmas. The video talks about Mithras shedding the "eternal blood" of the bull being similar to Jesus shedding his own blood. Well, that really is a stretch. All pagan religions killed animals and shed their blood. Guess which other religion did this? Judaism. Bulls and sheep were killed and the blood "saved" the people from their sins. Most importantly, during Passover, the blood of the lamb saved the people. This is why St. Paul, a Jew, describes Yeshua as a lamb. Eating a communal meal was also a part of Roman paganism (the meat and wine was first offered to their gods). Jewish Christians understood the Eucharist as a form of the Passover Last Supper, but the pagan Christians related it to their background. So, in short, if Mithraism shared some compoenents with Christian rituals, it's because some rituals (prayers, offerings, common meals, words like "eternal", "sacrifice", "immortal", "resurrection") are found in MANY religions, and that Hellenistic Roman culture shared certain elements, including artistic depictions and cultural themes.
********The ETERNAL GOD would do anything for you!! Even out of love for you he went to the cross as a human!!***** Philippians 2,5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, ************6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not regart equality with God a thing to be grasped************* 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,[3] being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
An interesting mix of historical perspectives and exaggerated speculations. It's pretty clear that Constantine's Milvian Bridge story is at the very least his own revisionist perspective, years later, told in the company of Christian clergy and almost certainly tailored to that audience. I can also imagine him equating Mithras and Jesus Christ, religiously, and reimagining and reinterpreting what he'd experienced years earlier. He clearly wasn't actually Christian until later in his life, and by most accounts, Constantine didn't convert to Christianity formally until the time of his death. But much of the other speculations in this video - of Constantine seeing himself as divine and possibly the replacement of Jesus is just typical Roman Imperial stuff. All the Roman emperors either actively sought to promote the idea of their own divinity or had it done anyways by the populace (remember Vespasian's comment to his son Titus as he was dying - wryly remarking that he felt like he was 'becoming a God'?). So the video's portrayal of this aspect as somehow unique to Constantine - that he was uniquely self-centered among the Emperors in seeing himself as Godlike - can't be taken seriously. That's what they all did. All-in-all though quite interesting, particularly the detailed analysis by the professional guests of the arch and other artwork and archeological findings.
@@islamsalaam1129 Honestly it is the truth... I do not expect a ruler of a country to be fully devoted to one faith, especially in a free-religion state like Rome back in those days... The Legend of Constantine is a white lie, as I am sure he baptized at the end of his life,which is rather a semi-common tradition to those that are not full Christians... My point is *not everything is black and white* ... An emperor cannot act as Queen E the first or her sister Mary, especially in a country with Mithran elites and poor (to middle) christians... At that time Christianity is on the rise and on parr with Mithra elites, I doubt he can stay at his seat by being full Christian... But I am sure he is attracted to the religion as it supports the poor and the needy like he once was...
@@chunellemariavictoriaespan8752 truly even amongst Christianity there are differences of opinions concerning Constantine and Paul. So why should I believe any of them
This is why understanding history is so important as we continue to evolve. Religion has been the most greatest tool used to control the people, so now that we are living in a time where we can question EVERYTHING without being put to death (in most countries) people can form their own opinion to chose what to believe in & why
So what???He was helping out in all possible manners,endorsing,promoting,protecting,spreading...etc,,His actions spoke louder than the mark,plus he wanted to be "worthy"and ready to do it..!!!!!
@@tonybuck1225 remember that the barbarian attacks the Christian back in a day, specially they are raiding the temples. Also the Islam also advance in the west. Roman was a big empire but even them, eventually they fall. But good thing during the heights of their empire they also Force the religion into the nation that they conquered which is Roman Catholic. That's why you see a lot of dark history of Romans, I mean you can't hide anything in the internet nowadays much more histories. They're always good in bad things about it. And now the vaticans have the most archive religious artifacts and writings in their libraries that is not open to public.
When the first Christians arrived to the Pontus Armenia and Georgia some copies of the Christians appeared with a misteric religion that was the mithraism, a misteric religion is one that you have to pass through initiation rituals so you know the "truth" like the freemasonry that have their levels and secrecy for their levels, this copy arrived to rome in the Era of Constantine and became very popular within the elite of Rome, Constantine was a Roman pagan and he converted to Christianity when Jesus appeared to him to defeat some whatever barbaric horde maybe the Anglo-Saxons or whatever barbarian hehehehe
I think the freemasonry can be very similar to mithraism cult they are always telling you some other new truth like in history Chanel that they reveal the secret of Constantine the adorator of mithras or another barbarity and everybody wants to know more about those "secrets" that they discovered, irresponsible creating a schizophrenic society that lives believing that everyone is lying to them, then you have shootings in the high school and etc. And then they can blame that to other horrid fake secret and then vice their societies with lies
As best as I can tell, Constantine created Catholicism, in which the entire empire was okay with it as he made it clear the people could keep their pagan gods and practices, they would just be given Christian names. One of the greatest evidences for this is the fact that true Christians were still persecuted and murdered throughout the empire long after the time of Constantine.
@@newsofourworld-p6i actually the term Catholicism was first used by St. Ignatius in 110 A.D. Whatever the case may be, between Christ rising from the dead, and Constantine in 330, the Christianity of Rome was greatly bastardized and mixed heavily with the paganism of Rome, to where most of the foundation was there for Constantine to utilize and merge with the state, as history records he did. And thus the beginning of popery.
@@drjanitor3747 yeah I've read the official narrative of the Catholic church, but in studying actual history, I can't find any legitimate popes prior to Constantine. And I've heard as much from historical scholars as well.
@@drjanitor3747 I don't believe the historical scholars were protestant, nor did I care, nor did I enquire, neither did I take note of the particular historians that have said as much. I came to the "Constantine officially starting Catholicism" on my own, by my own studies of history, I have no bias in the area. I simply noticed the huge discrepancy between the narrative of the catholic church, and what we actually know from historical texts and sources. In regards to the scholars that have voiced the same theory, none of them seemed to be religious. If we are going to look at history, to learn from it, we must look at it without bias.
It is important to remember that the apostasy of the followers of Jesus had begun by the end of the first century as is told in the the Scriptures. What is called Christianity in the 4th century is no longer Christian but has been contaminated. By Greek and Roman philosophy and pagan religion. As the so called Christian religion advanced through the centuries and the political entities and the religious entities joined forces to conquer and enslave those they conquered. The true teachings of Jesus Read the (Sermon on the mount Matthew 5 -7 ) have been ignored.
Constantine was the Emperor used by Christ to establish Christanity which was till then under persecution, His Mother St Helena , the daughter of a Christian Greek innkeeper from Edessa, a seat of Christanity after Antioch, met the then popular military chief of Byzantine on his visit to Edessa which was then under the juristication of Roman Byzantine , he married Helena & Constantine was born to them, his Mother trained him in all arts arranged by his Father who was in Byzantine , & at the death of the Byzantine emperor he suceeded him & at a latter time arranged for his young son Constantine to be brought to Byzantine from Edessa , & he accompanied his Father in his many adventuraes & battles , becoming popular with the Byzantine army & when his Father the Emperor died he was appointed the Emperor, then he got his Greek Mother Helena to Byzantine , later on was the battle against Maximus the Emperor of Rome defeating him & Rome welcomed Constantine, thus becoming the Emperor & the East & West, Today the Byzantine mantle falls on Russia , Byzantine splendor reborn , Now, since his Mother was a Christian he was brought up in the Christian culture moreover Edessa was a Christian center of learning, so he was obivously a Christan/brought up as a Christian in Edessa from birth , not as these channels try to potray,
Thanks for showing the truth sadly seems to fit. I always hsd my suspicions about him. I am not part of that false Roman system anyway. We worship Jesus only not any Pope or Emporor.
Whats the difference? He Constantine created that image and you are still worshipping his creation, essentially you are worshipping him, shifting goal post to suit own agenda is a common practice among Christians.
Annette, you are still within the circle. Jesus never told you to worship Him, He said worship He who sent Him to you. But who knows? may a lot of Constantine are still rocking the world in an invisible and you could be one of their fans. You want to worship ONE and only God, check Islam today, drop that feeling media pumped in your heart for a second and have a clear look at the Quran pls.
@@usmanibrahim5824 I know you might mean well, but Jesus is God in the flesh incarnation of the Virgin Mary and He is worthy to be worshipped as part of the Trinity Father, Son andHoly Spirit. Bless you.
ABSOLUTE NONSENSE!!! The guy deliberately ignores the most important historical facts ,and distorts others. 1. St.Constantine did not turn to the Christian Faith after his vision. He was brought up by his Greek and Christian mother Helen. 2. Christians in Western Europe where he ruled, were a tiny small minority. He had no reason to present himself as a fervent supporter of this religion, as he would probably be hated by his army and his subjects. 3. The arch of Constantine was decorated by fragments of previous destroyed arches. Therefore there are no secret symbolic meanings , apart from the obvious point that Constantine was a victorious and promising monarch. The supposed Mithra priests statues , are actually Persian officers in chuckles. 4. The overwhelming majority of the empire's population were pagans. Rome had an official state religion ,the one of the Invincible Sun, an Constantine as emperor ,was Pontifex Maximus. There was no way he could declare his Christian faith openly without causing massive reaction or even rebellion. Actually he was secretly baptised at the palace in Constantinople, shortly before his death. He did though something great : He transferred the Capital = the heart of the empire ,from Old pagan Rome, to New Rome ( Constantinople),within a Greek and Christian culture. 5. Similarities between Mithra and Jesus Christ, are tottaly fictitious, and were claimed by dome 19th century anti Christian scholars , without the slightest historical evidence. 6. Constantine was so eager to mix up religions ,that he called the 1st Ecumenical Council, with the participation of over 300 bishops, in order to clarify the doctrines of the Christian Faith. 7. A church in Rome was constructed upon a Mithra temple. What a discovery!!! Hundreds of Churches were constructed upon pagan temples. 8.The Nativity was placed on December 25 ,when pagan feasts were held. That was known right from the beginning, and it was done deliberately, so that it would supplant Roman Saturnalia. 9.The new capital of the empire was named New Rome . It was the people ,that gave gradually the name Constantinople to the City. 10. The column in the square of Beyaziyt mosque, was topped by Theodosius statue ,not Constantine's ,therefore it was called forum of Theodosios. 11. Ravena mosaics were constructed 200 years after Constantine. 12. Constantine couldn't be buried in Holly Apostoles church, as this was built by Justinian 200 years later,and contained real relics of the 12 Apostoles.
I had believed in the documentary and I have also believed in your exposure ...do u have a channel or any social media platform where u have those interesting facts?
One of the best comments on this feed and the only thing I question is #1? I thought Constaintine converted to Christianity much later in life even after the council of nicaea? It seems like he took the opportunity to use the religion for conquest purposes to me. (My personal opinion, you can have your own) Remember he was only a human being like you and me, flawed in more ways than we know. Also, one of the biggest beefs I have with the council of nicaea is that no females were involved or allowed in the picking of the books that went into the bible. I am still baffled to this day that females can be a part of Christianity. The religion that steals from others and claims innocence.
Why americans can't just make a documentary without constant epic hells kitchen war-like music and sound effects playing in the background i will never understand.
Yes, but His birth wasn’t celebrated year after year. That came after. Keep in mind, the Old Testament was a foreshadow of the New. The Jewish feast like Passover, First Fruits, Pentecost etc… were highly celebrated in the Jewish community, and they line up with the death of Christ, His resurrection and the Holy Spirit coming down from heaven.

I definitely believe Constantines "religious epiphany" was him realizing Christianity would be a far more efficient method of controlling the masses than brute force alone
@@keith1689 There is no god except Allah and Muhammad, may Allah's blessings and may peace be upon him, is the messenger of Allah. Your purpose is to worship Allah alone.
"Alone" being the key word since we know that, in large part, the Catholic Church didn't convert people through altruism, but through the vicious control of information and the murder of millions!
Jesus did not rebel against the Romans but rather criticised the religious authorities of his time. So many errors in this video. Apolo was the Greek Sun God. Sol was the Roman Sun God. Constantine did not found Constaninople city,, but adopted a Greek city Byzantium as his capital, thereafter named after him.
First of all Constantine did not invent Christianity, as it had existed for over 3 Centuries Before he was born. He only legalized Christian worship and freedom for Christians to worship as they saw fit.
Imagine all records/data of human have vanished today and the only remarkable evidence is Mt Rushmore. 1000 yrs from now , people in the future will think they were Gods of the people today
Constantine changed the name of the true hebrew Israelite messiah (Yahawashi) to the Roman-Greco false messiah who came in his own name jesus.Truth is truth,)They were never called Christians then,.only beleivers.He wasn't called jesus then either. ONLY Yahawashi.Constantine created the name jesus.Nobody called a name that wasn't invented.Come on man!The Roman religion of constantine is a false one.All Israelites MUST come out of this false religion.The wrath of Yah will be poured out on this false religion without mixture. Now, ask yourself is that what you want?
hebrew Yeshua translated to the greek according to the greek language rules: "Iesus". The letter "J" appeared around the 17 century... "I"/Jesus. In their translation of the Bible when you read the Gospels, they wrote about Yeshua going to Yerushalaim: "for the feast of the jews". Yeshua was a jew, and his followers were jews. When they wrote about it, they must have written the name of the Feast of Yehovah they were to celebrate (They had several). They would not refer to themselves as "the jews". Also when they mention the pharisees, they say "the jews". True Christianity started with jewish believers of Yeshua ha Masiach, then God manifested to the gentiles as well and of both He made one group. It is clear that people who were NOT jews nor christians altered the Scriptures, to portray the "jews" as evil, and many jew believers were still jews! Believing in their Mesiah did non strip them of their jewishness.
The Bible was even introduced by Catholicism 🤣🤣🤣 the Bible we have today was the set of Jewish and Early Christian scriptures that were chosen by Catholic fathers and then compiled these to become the Bible.
Dont his actions of polytheism speak for themselves? Was the council of Nicea about loving the so called Christ or about creating the dogma needed for a controlling the masses? If He was a Christ follower he would have torn down and stopped sun worship...oh my...We can only judge by actions...
Marlon C. Apparently you have not gone to college, or even had a decent HS class, where you had to complete your own academic research and cite the resource you gleaned your information from, so I won't be too hard on you. They are called primary sources such as historical documents, first-hand knowledge of an event, and peer-reviewed scholarly publications. For example, people might say they know what Jesus the KRST said and yet they are not 2,000 plus year's old.
Old unhistorical rubbish! The Constantinian Arch in Rome was commissioned by the Roman Senate, not by Constantine himself, so it proves nothing. The first narrative about the Milivan bridge is by Lactantius, not by Eusebius. A medallion was issued at Ticinum in 315 AD which shows Constantine wearing a helmet emblazoned with the Christian Chi Rho symbol and coins issued at Siscia in 317/318 AD repeat the image. So the Christian symbols were used by Constantine himself soon after the battle. All the rest is one big protestant conspiracy theory without any hint scientific truth or reason.
An easier way to know that Constantine didn't do what he's accused by these Historically illiterate idiots is to simply read or acknowledge the writings of the Ante-Nicene fathers from Polycarp to Athanasius. When you do that, you see that Constantine didn't "Corrupt the Church"
@@heavymeddle28 well I guess in a way. Love for power sometimes can entail constructing a personality cult just like the communist leaders used to do. They weren't necessarily narcissists. They just liked power.
@@heavymeddle28 it’s a common thread, or the common denominator. Narcissistic behavior always has some element of power and manipulation involved. The narcissist may not exhibit a hunger and thirst outwardly, but the point behind who they are is to have control and they suffer a narcissistic injury when someone stands up to them. Control is power, manipulation is something all narcissists covet.
Constantine noting that he had to unite the two armies the army he used and the conquered army of the enemy he had to unite the two with some form of belief emerging at the time in case Christianity, he was just opportunist all along. ...thus, controlling the entire empire, with some form of unified belief...
Sounds plausible but just because it sounds good doesn’t make it the Truth. Seek truth for yourself. To be open to the Truth, one has to become blind. Truth is not transient and thus hard for some to accept and understand.
Why would a Conquerer King want to merge the defeated solders? they are poweless without arms and ne King would have done anything he wanted with them. This logic doesn't fit. Could be that most of the Roman citizenry were christians and he wanted to control the masses through this fusion.
The old question arises here. Did the Church join the Power to acquire more preponderance? Or on the contrary, was it the Power that sought the alliance with the Church?

He did not create Christianity. Christianity was alive way before his time. He did declared that all religions would be tolerated in the Roman Empire. Constantine ended the vicious persecution of Christians by the Roman Empire. Constantine was the first in human history to wage war using the name of Christ. He did not identify himself as “Christian” until he was 40 years old, and he was baptized only before his imminent death at 65. Constantine wisely perceived that the Catholic church would glue together his fragile Empire, and he fought heretical movements (Arianism) that can jeopardize the unity of the Church or the unity of the Empire. hence He was made a member of in The Council of Nicaea by the Catholic church. This council stood down the Arians and issued the Nicene Creed. A statement of faith for Christianity. He was emperor but he did not control the church, the bishops and the Pope were of church. Constantine did not even fully understood the heresy of Arianism and why the church had condemned it. He needed the church to glue together his fragile Empire..
@@jotunman627 I've heard a podcast that he had Arianism leanings, but preferred the idea of doctrinal unity which was what the main body of the church. Constantine's issue was that if the new religion he had legalized was subject to in-fighting it would subject his Empire to break apart at the seams.
@@emiliaramos5792 True, When Constantine endorsed Arius’s ideas, there was an uproar that led the emperor in 325 to call the Council of Nicaea to settle the issue. This council stood down the Arians and issued the Nicene Creed. A statement of faith for Christianity. He held off his baptism until the last moment of his life, in respect to his position (as Emperor) and the Roman Empire....This video is full of misconception and false narratives on Christianity. Christianity was alive and growing, even before Constantine, there were ten Popes in the lifetime of Constantine.
The Mithraic religion highlighted the movement of the Sun across the elliptical. The movement from the constellation of the Bull ( Taurus) to the constellation of the Ram ( Aries) took place at about 2,100 bc. Prior to that Spring commenced in the constellation of Taurus for about 4200 Bc to 2100 bc. The fact that Mithraism Was a secret and elitist religion is not because it was different from the Roman religion per se , but it added an esoteric spin to the Roman Greco religion, particularly from About 200BC , because the constellation of Aries matched the sign of Aries due to the precession of the equinox. In Persia, where the magi originated from .. the lamb was known as the Ram.. so the author gets it wrong here .. the symbolism of the cap was from the Zoroastrian faith, where it is mandatory for Zoroastrians to wear a cap. This practice Was adopted by the Jews and Muslims later. The Mitraic religion is influenced Mitra of the Indo - Zoroastrian faith. Going back to Astronomy , sign of Aries , which is symbolised by the Sun bcoz Sun reaches it zenith or exhalation point in Aries and that explains the reference to Mithras as the Sun God. No doubt, Constantine had motives in combining Christianity with the Mithraism and this can be seen by the church adopting Easter corresponding to Sun’s move into Spring Equinox which coincided with so called the rite of spring celebrations which later on became Easter. The’s sun movement into Capricorn or the winter solstice on 22nd December was adopted as the birthdate of Jesus to make it easier to combine the Greco Roman customs into Christianity.
Yes Mithra literally means Same in Hinduism too . Mithra is referred to Morning Sun or the one who provides path to travel to the sun in different signs
That would apply for every Muslim community who used to be Zoroastrianism and Hinduism and the people of Latin and south America who are now Catholics 😁
THEREfore understandably Christianity is a mix teaching from paganism to Christianity. In short Christianity's teaching is impure because it mixed with Paganism.

@@ScottRock-mr6qk Constantine never claimed to be a Christian, if you look at his images, statues, mosaics and especially his coins, he continues to worship pagan gods, Mars Jupiter, Concorde, victory, and especially sol, the legend around his coins he refers to himself as Divus ,or PN a God of God's, there was no single Christian church in his time where they all believed the same thing, even almost a century after his death when Theodosius became emperor he chooses to outlaw paganism and made christianity the official state religion, but he writes about the many Christian sects who all disagreed with the others about one thing or another, he sent his men to wipe them all out unless they accepted his version. But even Theodosius continued using some pagan traditions, the legend around his coins claim him to be a God, the reverse depicts some pagan gods, after his wife died he minted coins with her image on the obverse claiming her as a goddess. The Christian church was still divided over many things The east and western churches didn't agree about when Easter should be celebrated, that didn't happen until the 7th century.

Reading many of these comments, you can understand Why the Ruling classes gave The masses these Religions; They make controlling their Subjects so much easier.
Nope it is just the human psychology. Thinking that your human life will end is really sacry and the feeling of injustice too. Jesus and other big religious players were just good liars and manipulators.
The Council of Nicaea, which OFFICIALLY established Jesus as God for the first time in Christianity, was organized by a Roman emperor named Constantine, who was a pagan and not a Christian, and was only baptized shortly before his death. 1. He chose which priests and churches would be invited, thereby arranging the "majority" and "minority" positions at the Council of Nicaea. 2. Nicaea, Anatolia, was an area where the majority of the population opposed Arianism, the doctrine that believed Jesus was not God. Thus, it is clear that Constantine did not need to be actively involved in the council, as the participants had already been "selected," the environment was "arranged," and therefore the outcome of the voting decisions was likely predictable by Constantine.
They did tried to substantiate the mystery but it is not enough. Another person could have done or researched it differently or paint it the whole picture differently. There are still many questions to be answered. A single documentary can't explain it all. All the same , good job.
@@verycaring2387 I always thought the doctrine of the immortal soul came from the Greeks. "The early Christian Philosophers adopted the Greek concept of the soul's immortality and thought of the soul as being created by God and infused into the body at conception."

God is holy and therefore inevitably always absolutely RIGHTEOUS! So God can never be merciful, gracious, because grace is not justice and therefore is wrong! A holy God can only be holy if he NEVER does wrong !! So FACT is without Jesus his SACRIFICE out of love for us we would all be lost! Only YHWH is not lying when he says he is HOLY and MERCIFUL !! Who is YHWH equal? EXACTLY NO ONE !! JESUS gave himself as a sin offering !! A PURE LIFE FOR A LIFE !! Because we have to be holy = without guilt otherwise God will judge us FAIR and RIGHT !! Jesus is YHWH and thus the Creator of EVERYTHING and thus has the weight to wash the whole creation clean with these pure lives (BLOOD) !! God bless you
Constantine also gathered the bishops around the Roman Empire and led the council of Nicaea in 325 CE which defined the Christian creed permanently. Those followers of Jesus who rejected this Christian creed were crushed, persecuted, murdered and all of their books got burned.
Books? What kind? That of agnostics? Then God allows that so that heresies are stopped and true Christianity evolved out of the apostate Roman Church(RC) . Not all are exterminated by RC , God has His way to spread His gospel outside the heretic organizations aka cults.
The real belief was Jesus peace be upon him was a prophet. They were made to believe in the trinity, much like today you don't believe Jesus is God then you are going hell. How simple a man is to convince him to worship Satan as God. 😂😂😂😂
Yes this comment is true. Many pagan rituals and holidays have been added to Christianity too. Christmas itself has been paganized. Easter or Ishtar as it was. Halloween is NOT a Christian holiday, purely pagan! All these rituals like turning Jesus's death into a bloody sacrifice where you eat his flesh and drink his blood ARE SATANIC! We've been duped!

This is far from a serious presentation on the topic and is, sadly, an example of the common level of such things in the age of TH-cam. It appears to be more about the ego of the archaeologists then looking to find any truth.
It would seem that the Roman Empire was struggling to survive as a viable state at the time Emperor Constantine decided to find a way to shore up a broken, decadent empire. After all, the Romans had spent a lot of time trying to wipe out Christianity, by means of: torture; imprisonment; mass murder; repression of communal worship, etc. At the end of this effort, the faith was actually growing, instead of being destroyed. Certainly, Constantine must have thought, 'if you can't beat them, join them.' Here was a community of people who had defied all the odds, while maintaining their morals, and other values, something lacking in Imperial Rome at this time. Simply incorporate this strong community into the weakening Roman culture by means of the law, and Rome would last forever. Or, at least, that was how the story should have gone.
It was rumoured, and it it is not mentioned in the video that Constantine's mother was a Christian, a Brit, and possibly an aristocrat. His father being a Roman and possibly a follower of Mithras?
@@gordonbryce Helena was a Christian is not a rumor but an historical fact. She had a big influence on Constantine. Things aren't as simple to one side or the other as people like them to be seem.
Christianity was totally and fervently at odds with Roman pagan culture. That is why it was persecuted. It was totally alien to Roman culture, including its passivity to violence and it harsh ridicule of the pagan gods. It was in no way politically expedient for Constatine to embrace it.
Jesus was a “Anti-roman rebel that we read about in the gospels”? Read the gospels again, doctor. He was crucified among other things for NOT being the mossiach ben david that the jew leaders were expecting, to liberate Israel from Rome. The romans executed a sentence that was decided by the jewish leaders.
He is the son of David but they misinterpreted his two comings into the world. Thr first one was on a donkey and the next one will be on the clouds of heaven. In scripture is clearly both
Yes, of course Jesus is the messiah. He was not just the messiah that those leaders expected, since he was supposed to be this liberator of Israel against the roman power. To be clear, my point was against that wrong assertion from the "expert" in the video. Seems to me that he is playing with the general ignorance of the audience, claiming that Jesus was exactally what he was not, so much that he not being that rebel against Rome was even a claim to justify his murder in the eyes of the jews.

The depiction of angels in the Bible is often very bizarre and has absolutely no similarities with chubby babies with wings. The true form of angels, as depicted, is terrifying and that is why the first words of angels to humans is : Do not be afraid.
Built just after the battle and 10 years before Constantine presided over the council of Nicea. Not nearly enough time had passed between his conversion and the construction of the Arch for Christianity to take hold of Constantine and the Roman culture as a whole.
How do they know that those cross symbols on those rocks had religious connotations? It’s very easy to make lines crossing one another. Maybe made by a bored soldier? Maybe it was an ancient game? It’s quite a stretch to see “cross or x symbols” on rocks and then proclaim that there were Christians in Constantine’s army.
1rst and second century writings confirm the nature of Christianity. No matter what the structure of the Romanized church the words of Jesus have not changed only people's interpretation has.

None of this stuff matters. And there's nothing particularly revelatory about this reflection of Constantine. He was obviously a "political" general and emperor. The real issue is, did he use the Christians or did the Christian Bishops use him? Remember, the Christians were persecuted before Constantine. Yet, they had become so numerous by the time of Constantine, that two empire wide persecutions failed to purge the Christians (Decius and Diocletian). So, obviously, Constantine understood this background. It would be in his pragmatic interest (even if he disguised his Sun God beliefs -- which he would have had to do to get the Christians on his side) and the Bishops to reach a peace. So, in the end, it is irrelevant, whether whether Constantine truly adopted the Christian faith or not, the practical, historical result, is that Christianity was finally accepted to strengthen the Empire. Not by forcing them to Worship Constantine as a God -- as a Bishop, I wouldn't care two cents what Constantine thought of himself, as longs as he left the Faithful Christians alone. No Christian would worship him as a God. But bishops would be all for making the Faith that had outlasted all its emperors, legal. That's Constantine's claim to fame, and he didn't accept Christianity in a stingy fashion! He built big! Gave them (and himself) a new city -- which to a Christians represented a purging of Paganism.
Upon his death, his tomb has his body placed in the middle of twelve pillars as he believed himself to be a thirteenth apostle because he had converted more “Christians” than they had. It’s very interesting to learn about the cult of Mithras.
I'm not a papist myself, but don't start your shit. We Christians should be uniting not fighting each other. Don't you see we're under siege by all sides? Revelation is coming to fruition
Constantine was so powerful and influential that he tried to change God's Sabbath to his Sun worship day (Sunday) that is adopted by most Christians today.....let's wake up! there remains a Sabbath for the people of God today (Hebrews 4:9-11)

This question I was left with ... why was American Christianity so vehemently against it's members have knowledge of & being apart of Greek organizations (Fraternity & Sorority) or Fraternal Orders? It appears that Greek history could explain so much about Christianity and other institutions & systems. Just my thoughts ... but this was my first video from this channel & now I want to see EVERYTHING 👀
Fraternal orders are satanic cults. Just like freemansonry. Meaning you don’t know you’re worshipping satan until you climb the ranks and then they reveal it to you. Ofc at the basic level you won’t be “worshipping satan” but these orders are cults are were organized and structured to worship Satan. Keep researching for you know I could be saying rubbish, I would prefer that you do your study and come to knowledge of the truth instead of reading a random comment on TH-cam.
So Jews basically worship the ancient alien gods the Anunnaki, the old testament god, is basically 👽 coming to Earth. Yaweh witnesses created by freemasons and Catholics worship actually Mithras. 😅 🤣😂🧐🤓
If I hear a historian who always speaks doubt in his statement, instead of proving it is twisting the fact just to instill question in the mind of the people, I can tell that there is a hidden agenda in his research. For me this man is just another Protestant with a mission to simply discredit Constantine which will affect directly to the Roman Catholic Church as the man or Emperor who has influence in creating it. This historian relate the practice of Constantine to Paganism, Osiris, so that those ignorant will raise question to the current practice of Roman Catholic Church as a Saints Centered using its images and statues, will view it not just Paganism but also Idolatry and they can easily be deceived and convinced to transfer to the 30,000 different Protestant churches around the world today which is the product of Martin Luther.... a Protestants indeed, imagine they are now 30,000. And wait they have change it and actively called themselves now as Christians! Matthew 24: 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. If by chance I am deceived by the Roman Catholic Church which I don't believe. It is better to stay to this church and be deceived once and endure to the last in believing Christ than to transfer my faith to the 30,000 different protestant church around the world today who have one voice they claim; "Come to us, we are the TRUE church of Christ, Be Baptized again for you to be SAVED! They even name their churches with the specific word Christ in it. So isn't it obvious how it relate to Matthew 24:5?
Read and study the Holy Quran for truth and answers to what happened. What was, is and will.be. Reality is, God our Creator never called anyone Christian! People began calling themselves Christians after sects began to form. Our 1 Creator has always had 1 religion and sent 124,000 prophets since Adam pbuh, to teach 1 religion to mankind. We believe in the original Torah, Pslams, Bible and the final complete, word of God alone The Holy Quran. 1version, 1book, protected by God forever.
To realize all the Christian holidays or Christmas Easter and even Sunday worship are pagan-is hard to believe! It’s not believed by my close family and friends around me!

I'm studying church history at FAU in Erlangen. This is entertaining but a bit sensationalistic, as if the journalist has discovered something that the scholars did not know. I want to clear up some things. Firstly, the theologians, church historians and archaeologists are not all agreed about the extent of Constantine's so-called conversion, which was described by the church father Eusebius in a clearly biased manner. We simply do not have unbiased written accounts from this period! We can, however, look at the laws he created, and his actions. Constantine did make a lot of laws regarding the churches, donated huge sums of money to build churches, outlawed crucifixion and gladiator death matches, granted all Romans freedom of religion and overall was one of the best emperors. However, he also killed his wife and son, and did not officially become a Christian till just before his death.
He did not "convert the whole Roman world" to Christianity, but merely legalized and promoted it. Actually, he was unpopular among the pagans because he put so many Christians in high places. There were many religions in the Roman Empire, some were illegal (like the cult of Dionysus), but Constantine legalized Christianity and returned the goods plundered by previous emperors. Christianity did not officially become a state religion until the reign of Theodosius at the end of the century.
Constantine also did not "create" Christianity, as some suppose. He did make Dies Sol Invictus (Day of the sun) an official holiday for all Romans, but the Christians had been meeting on Sundays for a long time, so this created a syncretized form of Christianity. Most Christians were converted heathens, so they kept many of their cultural practices and bit by bit adapted them to their "new faith", including adding 25 December, birthday of Mithras, to the Christian calendar as Jesus' birthday. Early Christian theologians such as Justin Martyr and Eusebius saw Mithraism as a satanic counterfeit of Christianity and preached against this heathen cult. Sadly, Constantine was antisemitic towards Jews (mainly due to the political revolts by Jews), and brought Christianity further from its Jewish roots. He also brought some shady theology into it, as well, like the idea that God wanted him to be emperor (otherwise, why did he win the battle). This kind of deterministic triumphalism has afflicted Western Christianity ever since.
There really is very little that Yeshua shares with Mithras or Mithraic relgion, except for the imagery (rays of light), the concept of a god having a son (which all Roman religions had) and some pagan rituals which were kept and "christianized" like Christmas. The video talks about Mithras shedding the "eternal blood" of the bull being similar to Jesus shedding his own blood. Well, that really is a stretch. All pagan religions killed animals and shed their blood. Guess which other religion did this? Judaism. Bulls and sheep were killed and the blood "saved" the people from their sins. Most importantly, during Passover, the blood of the lamb saved the people. This is why St. Paul, a Jew, describes Yeshua as a lamb. Eating a communal meal was also a part of Roman paganism (the meat and wine was first offered to their gods). Jewish Christians understood the Eucharist as a form of the Passover Last Supper, but the pagan Christians related it to their background. So, in short, if Mithraism shared some compoenents with Christian rituals, it's because some rituals (prayers, offerings, common meals, words like "eternal", "sacrifice", "immortal", "resurrection") are found in MANY religions, and that Hellenistic Roman culture shared certain elements, including artistic depictions and cultural themes.

8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
An interesting mix of historical perspectives and exaggerated speculations. It's pretty clear that Constantine's Milvian Bridge story is at the very least his own revisionist perspective, years later, told in the company of Christian clergy and almost certainly tailored to that audience. I can also imagine him equating Mithras and Jesus Christ, religiously, and reimagining and reinterpreting what he'd experienced years earlier. He clearly wasn't actually Christian until later in his life, and by most accounts, Constantine didn't convert to Christianity formally until the time of his death. But much of the other speculations in this video - of Constantine seeing himself as divine and possibly the replacement of Jesus is just typical Roman Imperial stuff. All the Roman emperors either actively sought to promote the idea of their own divinity or had it done anyways by the populace (remember Vespasian's comment to his son Titus as he was dying - wryly remarking that he felt like he was 'becoming a God'?). So the video's portrayal of this aspect as somehow unique to Constantine - that he was uniquely self-centered among the Emperors in seeing himself as Godlike - can't be taken seriously. That's what they all did. All-in-all though quite interesting, particularly the detailed analysis by the professional guests of the arch and other artwork and archeological findings.

@@islamsalaam1129 Honestly it is the truth... I do not expect a ruler of a country to be fully devoted to one faith, especially in a free-religion state like Rome back in those days... The Legend of Constantine is a white lie, as I am sure he baptized at the end of his life,which is rather a semi-common tradition to those that are not full Christians...
My point is *not everything is black and white* ... An emperor cannot act as Queen E the first or her sister Mary, especially in a country with Mithran elites and poor (to middle) christians... At that time Christianity is on the rise and on parr with Mithra elites, I doubt he can stay at his seat by being full Christian...

When the first Christians arrived to the Pontus Armenia and Georgia some copies of the Christians appeared with a misteric religion that was the mithraism, a misteric religion is one that you have to pass through initiation rituals so you know the "truth" like the freemasonry that have their levels and secrecy for their levels, this copy arrived to rome in the Era of Constantine and became very popular within the elite of Rome, Constantine was a Roman pagan and he converted to Christianity when Jesus appeared to him to defeat some whatever barbaric horde maybe the Anglo-Saxons or whatever barbarian hehehehe
I think the freemasonry can be very similar to mithraism cult they are always telling you some other new truth like in history Chanel that they reveal the secret of Constantine the adorator of mithras or another barbarity and everybody wants to know more about those "secrets" that they discovered, irresponsible creating a schizophrenic society that lives believing that everyone is lying to them, then you have shootings in the high school and etc. And then they can blame that to other horrid fake secret and then vice their societies with lies
As best as I can tell, Constantine created Catholicism, in which the entire empire was okay with it as he made it clear the people could keep their pagan gods and practices, they would just be given Christian names. One of the greatest evidences for this is the fact that true Christians were still persecuted and murdered throughout the empire long after the time of Constantine.

There was nothing like Catholicism at the time. It was all Christianity.
@@newsofourworld-p6i actually the term Catholicism was first used by St. Ignatius in 110 A.D. Whatever the case may be, between Christ rising from the dead, and Constantine in 330, the Christianity of Rome was greatly bastardized and mixed heavily with the paganism of Rome, to where most of the foundation was there for Constantine to utilize and merge with the state, as history records he did. And thus the beginning of popery.

I simply noticed the huge discrepancy between the narrative of the catholic church, and what we actually know from historical texts and sources. In regards to the scholars that have voiced the same theory, none of them seemed to be religious. If we are going to look at history, to learn from it, we must look at it without bias.

It is important to remember that the apostasy of the followers of Jesus had begun by the end of the first century as is told in the the Scriptures. What is called Christianity in the 4th century is no longer Christian but has been contaminated. By Greek and Roman philosophy and pagan religion. As the so called Christian religion advanced through the centuries and the political entities and the religious entities joined forces to conquer and enslave those they conquered. The true teachings of Jesus Read the (Sermon on the mount Matthew 5 -7 ) have been ignored.
Constantine was the Emperor used by Christ to establish Christanity which was till then under persecution,
His Mother St Helena , the daughter of a Christian Greek innkeeper from Edessa, a seat of Christanity after Antioch, met the then popular military chief of Byzantine on his visit to Edessa which was then under the juristication of Roman Byzantine , he married Helena & Constantine was born to them, his Mother trained him in all arts arranged by his Father who was in Byzantine , & at the death of the Byzantine emperor he suceeded him & at a latter time arranged for his young son Constantine to be brought to Byzantine from Edessa , & he accompanied his Father in his many adventuraes & battles , becoming popular with the Byzantine army & when his Father the Emperor died he was appointed the Emperor, then he got his Greek Mother Helena to Byzantine , later on was the battle against Maximus the Emperor of Rome defeating him & Rome welcomed Constantine, thus becoming the Emperor & the East & West, Today the Byzantine mantle falls on Russia , Byzantine splendor reborn ,
Now, since his Mother was a Christian he was brought up in the Christian culture moreover Edessa was a Christian center of learning, so he was obivously a Christan/brought up as a Christian in Edessa from birth , not as these channels try to potray,
Thanks for showing the truth sadly seems to fit. I always hsd my suspicions about him. I am not part of that false Roman system anyway. We worship Jesus only not any Pope or Emporor.
Whats the difference? He Constantine created that image and you are still worshipping his creation, essentially you are worshipping him, shifting goal post to suit own agenda is a common practice among Christians.
Annette, you are still within the circle. Jesus never told you to worship Him, He said worship He who sent Him to you. But who knows? may a lot of Constantine are still rocking the world in an invisible and you could be one of their fans.

@@AnnetteMurphyger who said dear?
ABSOLUTE NONSENSE!!!
The guy deliberately ignores the most important historical facts ,and distorts others.
1. St.Constantine did not turn to the Christian Faith after his vision.
He was brought up by his Greek and Christian mother Helen.
2. Christians in Western Europe where he ruled, were a tiny small minority.
He had no reason to present himself as a fervent supporter of this religion, as he would probably be hated by his army and his subjects.
3. The arch of Constantine was decorated by fragments of previous destroyed arches.
Therefore there are no secret symbolic meanings , apart from the obvious point that Constantine was a victorious and promising monarch.
The supposed Mithra priests statues , are actually Persian officers in chuckles.
4. The overwhelming majority of the empire's population were pagans.
Rome had an official state religion ,the one of the Invincible Sun, an Constantine as emperor ,was Pontifex Maximus.
There was no way he could declare his Christian faith openly without causing massive reaction or even rebellion.
Actually he was secretly baptised at the palace in Constantinople, shortly before his death.
He did though something great :
He transferred the Capital = the heart of the empire ,from Old pagan Rome, to New Rome ( Constantinople),within a Greek and Christian culture.
5. Similarities between Mithra and Jesus Christ, are tottaly fictitious, and were claimed by dome 19th century anti Christian scholars , without the slightest historical evidence.
6. Constantine was so eager to mix up religions ,that he called the 1st Ecumenical Council, with the participation of over 300 bishops, in order to clarify the doctrines of the Christian Faith.
7. A church in Rome was constructed upon a Mithra temple.
What a discovery!!!
Hundreds of Churches were constructed upon pagan temples.
8.The Nativity was placed on December 25 ,when pagan feasts were held.
That was known right from the beginning, and it was done deliberately, so that it would supplant Roman Saturnalia.
9.The new capital of the empire was named New Rome .
It was the people ,that gave gradually the name Constantinople to the City.
10. The column in the square of Beyaziyt mosque, was topped by Theodosius statue ,not Constantine's ,therefore it was called forum of Theodosios.
11. Ravena mosaics were constructed 200 years after Constantine.
12. Constantine couldn't be buried in Holly Apostoles church, as this was built by Justinian 200 years later,and contained real relics of the 12 Apostoles.
GREAT INFORMATION.THESE PEOPLE TRY TO WASH OUT THE BELIEFS OF THE TRUE GOD.

I had believed in the documentary and I have also believed in your exposure ...do u have a channel or any social media platform where u have those interesting facts?
One of the best comments on this feed and the only thing I question is #1? I thought Constaintine converted to Christianity much later in life even after the council of nicaea? It seems like he took the opportunity to use the religion for conquest purposes to me. (My personal opinion, you can have your own) Remember he was only a human being like you and me, flawed in more ways than we know. Also, one of the biggest beefs I have with the council of nicaea is that no females were involved or allowed in the picking of the books that went into the bible. I am still baffled to this day that females can be a part of Christianity. The religion that steals from others and claims innocence.
These are really counterpoints, so you study Christian history or are you a fan of the Roman civilization in general?
Why americans can't just make a documentary without constant epic hells kitchen war-like music and sound effects playing in the background i will never understand.
It’s crucial to remember that Christianity existed for nearly 300 years before this, a lot of the fellow commenters are seemingly forgetful of that.
Wonder what their motive for the clip is .
Yes, but His birth wasn’t celebrated year after year. That came after. Keep in mind, the Old Testament was a foreshadow of the New. The Jewish feast like Passover, First Fruits, Pentecost etc… were highly celebrated in the Jewish community, and they line up with the death of Christ, His resurrection and the Holy Spirit coming down from heaven.
And Hinduism 600 years before that

I don't think it matters if he was a true Christian or not. Christians as a religion were no longer persecuted in Rome. Sounds like a win to me.
Constantine didn't make Rome Christian... He made Christianity Roman. He turned the destroyer of Rome into the Savior of Rome smh

First of all
Constantine did not invent Christianity, as it had existed for over 3 Centuries Before he was born.
He only legalized Christian worship and freedom for Christians to worship as they saw fit.
Imagine all records/data of human have vanished today and the only remarkable evidence is Mt Rushmore. 1000 yrs from now , people in the future will think they were Gods of the people today
Constantine changed the name of the true hebrew Israelite messiah (Yahawashi) to the Roman-Greco false messiah who came in his own name jesus.Truth is truth,)They were never called Christians then,.only beleivers.He wasn't called jesus then either. ONLY Yahawashi.Constantine created the name jesus.Nobody called a name that wasn't invented.Come on man!The Roman religion of constantine
is a false one.All Israelites MUST come out of this false religion.The wrath of Yah will be poured out on this false religion without mixture. Now, ask yourself is that what you want?
Are you a christian
False
How ridiculous.
No such person messiah called Jesus ever existed on this earth. I have been studying.
hebrew Yeshua translated to the greek according to the greek language rules: "Iesus". The letter "J" appeared around the 17 century... "I"/Jesus. In their translation of the Bible when you read the Gospels, they wrote about Yeshua going to Yerushalaim: "for the feast of the jews". Yeshua was a jew, and his followers were jews. When they wrote about it, they must have written the name of the Feast of Yehovah they were to celebrate (They had several). They would not refer to themselves as "the jews". Also when they mention the pharisees, they say "the jews". True Christianity started with jewish believers of Yeshua ha Masiach, then God manifested to the gentiles as well and of both He made one group.
It is clear that people who were NOT jews nor christians altered the Scriptures, to portray the "jews" as evil, and many jew believers were still jews! Believing in their Mesiah did non strip them of their jewishness.
Constantine just mixed a tiny bit of Christianity with a lot of paganism. All you need to do is read the Bible to find out Catholicism is false.
The Bible was even introduced by Catholicism 🤣🤣🤣 the Bible we have today was the set of Jewish and Early Christian scriptures that were chosen by Catholic fathers and then compiled these to become the Bible.
The 4 Gospel was chosen by the Catholic bishop of Lugdunum (Lyon).
Putting of chapters and verses in the bible was invented by 2 Catholic missionaries.
If you know history well, you will realize what I am saying.

Love the comments. Especially of those of you, who met Constantine personally and know first hand his motivation and reasons why he did what he did.
Dont his actions of polytheism speak for themselves? Was the council of Nicea about loving the so called Christ or about creating the dogma needed for a controlling the masses? If He was a Christ follower he would have torn down and stopped sun worship...oh my...We can only judge by actions...

Old unhistorical rubbish! The Constantinian Arch in Rome was commissioned by the Roman Senate, not by Constantine himself, so it proves nothing. The first narrative about the Milivan bridge is by Lactantius, not by Eusebius. A medallion was issued at Ticinum in 315 AD which shows Constantine wearing a helmet emblazoned with the Christian Chi Rho symbol and coins issued at Siscia in 317/318 AD repeat the image. So the Christian symbols were used by Constantine himself soon after the battle. All the rest is one big protestant conspiracy theory without any hint scientific truth or reason.
An easier way to know that Constantine didn't do what he's accused by these Historically illiterate idiots is to simply read or acknowledge the writings of the Ante-Nicene fathers from Polycarp to Athanasius.
When you do that, you see that Constantine didn't "Corrupt the Church"

Between Constantine and Paul: christianity was commandeered and guided to be an organ of the Roman Empire: which is now the catholic church.
It was designed that way to placate israel classic roman propaganda
He did not create Christianity.
Christianity was alive way before his time. He did declared that all religions would be tolerated in the Roman Empire. Constantine ended the vicious persecution of Christians by the Roman Empire. Constantine was the first in human history to wage war using the name of Christ.
He did not identify himself as “Christian” until he was 40 years old, and he was baptized only before his imminent death at 65.
Constantine wisely perceived that the Catholic church would glue together his fragile Empire, and he fought heretical movements (Arianism) that can jeopardize the unity of the Church or the unity of the Empire. hence He was made a member of in The Council of Nicaea by the Catholic church.
This council stood down the Arians and issued the Nicene Creed. A statement of faith for Christianity.
He was emperor but he did not control the church, the bishops and the Pope were of church. Constantine did not even fully understood the heresy of Arianism and why the church had condemned it. He needed the church to glue together his fragile Empire..
it was created by rome - read caesar's messiah.
@@jotunman627 I've heard a podcast that he had Arianism leanings, but preferred the idea of doctrinal unity which was what the main body of the church. Constantine's issue was that if the new religion he had legalized was subject to in-fighting it would subject his Empire to break apart at the seams.
@@emiliaramos5792 True, When Constantine endorsed Arius’s ideas, there was an uproar that led the emperor in 325 to call the Council of Nicaea to settle the issue. This council stood down the Arians and issued the Nicene Creed. A statement of faith for Christianity.
He held off his baptism until the last moment of his life, in respect to his position (as Emperor) and the Roman Empire....This video is full of misconception and false narratives on Christianity.
Christianity was alive and growing, even before Constantine, there were ten Popes in the lifetime of Constantine.
The Mithraic religion highlighted the movement of the Sun across the elliptical. The movement
from the constellation of the Bull ( Taurus) to the constellation of the Ram ( Aries) took place at about 2,100 bc. Prior to that Spring commenced in the constellation of Taurus for about 4200 Bc to 2100 bc. The fact that Mithraism Was a secret and elitist religion is not because it was different from the Roman religion per se , but it added an esoteric spin to the Roman Greco religion, particularly from
About 200BC , because the constellation of Aries matched the sign of Aries due to the precession of the equinox.
In Persia, where the magi originated from .. the lamb was known as the Ram.. so the author gets it wrong here .. the symbolism of the cap was from the Zoroastrian faith, where it is mandatory for Zoroastrians to wear a cap. This practice Was adopted by the Jews and Muslims later. The Mitraic religion is influenced Mitra of the Indo - Zoroastrian faith.
Going back to Astronomy , sign of Aries , which is symbolised by the Sun bcoz Sun reaches it zenith or exhalation point in Aries and that explains the reference to Mithras as the Sun God.
No doubt, Constantine had motives in combining Christianity with the Mithraism and this can be seen by the church adopting Easter corresponding to Sun’s move into Spring
Equinox which coincided with so called the rite of spring celebrations which later on became Easter. The’s sun movement into Capricorn or the winter solstice on 22nd December was adopted as the birthdate of Jesus to make it easier to combine the Greco Roman customs into Christianity.
Excellent words.

The Council of Nicaea, which OFFICIALLY established Jesus as God for the first time in Christianity, was organized by a Roman emperor named Constantine, who was a pagan and not a Christian, and was only baptized shortly before his death.
1. He chose which priests and churches would be invited, thereby arranging the "majority" and "minority" positions at the Council of Nicaea.
2. Nicaea, Anatolia, was an area where the majority of the population opposed Arianism, the doctrine that believed Jesus was not God.
Thus, it is clear that Constantine did not need to be actively involved in the council, as the participants had already been "selected," the environment was "arranged," and therefore the outcome of the voting decisions was likely predictable by Constantine.

"The early Christian Philosophers adopted the Greek concept of the soul's immortality and thought of the soul as being created by God and infused into the body at conception." (Encyclopedia Britannica (1988), volume 11, p. 25) They came up with Hell too.

PROOF: All “”religions”” are LIES !! Attention! Only Jesus is the truth and the only WAY !!
All religions presented themselves as FRAUD and LIES when they denied Jesus his sacrifice!
God is holy and therefore inevitably always absolutely RIGHTEOUS! So God can never be merciful, gracious, because grace is not justice and therefore is wrong! A holy God can only be holy if he NEVER does wrong !! So FACT is without Jesus his SACRIFICE out of love for us we would all be lost! Only YHWH is not lying when he says he is HOLY and MERCIFUL !! Who is YHWH equal? EXACTLY NO ONE !!
JESUS gave himself as a sin offering !! A PURE LIFE FOR A LIFE !! Because we have to be holy = without guilt otherwise God will judge us FAIR and RIGHT !! Jesus is YHWH and thus the Creator of EVERYTHING and thus has the weight to wash the whole creation clean with these pure lives (BLOOD) !! God bless you
Thnx but no thnx try more... the life of Saul could answer your theory...🙂
I hear you
Constantine also gathered the bishops around the Roman Empire and led the council of Nicaea in 325 CE which defined the Christian creed permanently. Those followers of Jesus who rejected this Christian creed were crushed, persecuted, murdered and all of their books got burned.
Books? What kind? That of agnostics? Then God allows that so that heresies are stopped and true Christianity evolved out of the apostate Roman Church(RC) . Not all are exterminated by RC , God has His way to spread His gospel outside the heretic organizations aka cults.
The real belief was Jesus peace be upon him was a prophet. They were made to believe in the trinity, much like today you don't believe Jesus is God then you are going hell. How simple a man is to convince him to worship Satan as God. 😂😂😂😂
As a Jew i confirm that
Yes this comment is true. Many pagan rituals and holidays have been added to Christianity too. Christmas itself has been paganized. Easter or Ishtar as it was. Halloween is NOT a Christian holiday, purely pagan!
All these rituals like turning Jesus's death into a bloody sacrifice where you eat his flesh and drink his blood ARE SATANIC!
We've been duped!
@Titanium Zone It IS true! I've come across EXACTLY the same information in my own research! It's not like it's a big secret either!

This is far from a serious presentation on the topic and is, sadly, an example of the common level of such things in the age of TH-cam. It appears to be more about the ego of the archaeologists then looking to find any truth.
It would seem that the Roman Empire was struggling to survive as a viable state at the time Emperor Constantine decided to find a way to shore up a broken, decadent empire.
After all, the Romans had spent a lot of time trying to wipe out Christianity, by means of: torture; imprisonment; mass murder; repression of communal worship, etc. At the end of this effort, the faith was actually growing, instead of being destroyed.
Certainly, Constantine must have thought, 'if you can't beat them, join them.' Here was a community of people who had defied all the odds, while maintaining their morals, and other values, something lacking in Imperial Rome at this time. Simply incorporate this strong community into the weakening Roman culture by means of the law, and Rome would last forever. Or, at least, that was how the story should have gone.
It was rumoured, and it it is not mentioned in the video that Constantine's mother was a Christian, a Brit, and possibly an aristocrat. His father being a Roman and possibly a follower of Mithras?
@@gordonbryce Helena was a Christian is not a rumor but an historical fact. She had a big influence on Constantine. Things aren't as simple to one side or the other as people like them to be seem.
@@Krafanio Yes, history is often smudged over and rewritten to suit other political agendas. I agree.
Christianity was totally and fervently at odds with Roman pagan culture. That is why it was persecuted. It was totally alien to Roman culture, including its passivity to violence and it harsh ridicule of the pagan gods. It was in no way politically expedient for Constatine to embrace it.
he corrupted the teachings of Jesus as well
Jesus was a “Anti-roman rebel that we read about in the gospels”? Read the gospels again, doctor. He was crucified among other things for NOT being the mossiach ben david that the jew leaders were expecting, to liberate Israel from Rome. The romans executed a sentence that was decided by the jewish leaders.
He is the son of David but they misinterpreted his two comings into the world. Thr first one was on a donkey and the next one will be on the clouds of heaven. In scripture is clearly both
Yes, of course Jesus is the messiah. He was not just the messiah that those leaders expected, since he was supposed to be this liberator of Israel against the roman power. To be clear, my point was against that wrong assertion from the "expert" in the video. Seems to me that he is playing with the general ignorance of the audience, claiming that Jesus was exactally what he was not, so much that he not being that rebel against Rome was even a claim to justify his murder in the eyes of the jews.
He liberated the Jew and Gentile.
I refer you to the South Park depiction of the history channel as a comparative and somewhat humorous reflection of our times.
@ANDY LUMEH © I bring you Gold. You, sir. Stop dictating god what he can be and what not. This exact mentality is what made people to kill him in the first place as they were prejudice and not ready to accept the fact that "god need not to ask permission from stupid humans of what form he can take and what rules are dictated from him by humans".

The depiction of angels in the Bible is often very bizarre and has absolutely no similarities with chubby babies with wings.
The true form of angels, as depicted, is terrifying and that is why the first words of angels to humans is : Do not be afraid.
This is very interesting… I just wonder when the Arch was built… Before or after his alleged transformation…
Built just after the battle and 10 years before Constantine presided over the council of Nicea. Not nearly enough time had passed between his conversion and the construction of the Arch for Christianity to take hold of Constantine and the Roman culture as a whole.
How do they know that those cross symbols on those rocks had religious connotations? It’s very easy to make lines crossing one another. Maybe made by a bored soldier? Maybe it was an ancient game? It’s quite a stretch to see “cross or x symbols” on rocks and then proclaim that there were Christians in Constantine’s army.
1rst and second century writings confirm the nature of Christianity. No matter what the structure of the Romanized church the words of Jesus have not changed only people's interpretation has.

No binoculars there in Rome?

I know, right? The drama.
None of this stuff matters. And there's nothing particularly revelatory about this reflection of Constantine. He was obviously a "political" general and emperor. The real issue is, did he use the Christians or did the Christian Bishops use him? Remember, the Christians were persecuted before Constantine. Yet, they had become so numerous by the time of Constantine, that two empire wide persecutions failed to purge the Christians (Decius and Diocletian). So, obviously, Constantine understood this background. It would be in his pragmatic interest (even if he disguised his Sun God beliefs -- which he would have had to do to get the Christians on his side) and the Bishops to reach a peace. So, in the end, it is irrelevant, whether whether Constantine truly adopted the Christian faith or not, the practical, historical result, is that Christianity was finally accepted to strengthen the Empire. Not by forcing them to Worship Constantine as a God -- as a Bishop, I wouldn't care two cents what Constantine thought of himself, as longs as he left the Faithful Christians alone. No Christian would worship him as a God. But bishops would be all for making the Faith that had outlasted all its emperors, legal. That's Constantine's claim to fame, and he didn't accept Christianity in a stingy fashion! He built big! Gave them (and himself) a new city -- which to a Christians represented a purging of Paganism.

I can ideally say that Constantine is/was the first pope, In that he wanted to be 'like' god on earth.
Upon his death, his tomb has his body placed in the middle of twelve pillars as he believed himself to be a thirteenth apostle because he had converted more “Christians” than they had. It’s very interesting to learn about the cult of Mithras.
I'm not a papist myself, but don't start your shit. We Christians should be uniting not fighting each other. Don't you see we're under siege by all sides? Revelation is coming to fruition
Constantine was so powerful and influential that he tried to change God's Sabbath to his Sun worship day (Sunday) that is adopted by most Christians today.....let's wake up! there remains a Sabbath for the people of God today (Hebrews 4:9-11)

If I hear a historian who always speaks doubt in his statement, instead of proving it is twisting the fact just to instill question in the mind of the people, I can tell that there is a hidden agenda in his research. For me this man is just another Protestant with a mission to simply discredit Constantine which will affect directly to the Roman Catholic Church as the man or Emperor who has influence in creating it. This historian relate the practice of Constantine to Paganism, Osiris, so that those ignorant will raise question to the current practice of Roman Catholic Church as a Saints Centered using its images and statues, will view it not just Paganism but also Idolatry and they can easily be deceived and convinced to transfer to the 30,000 different Protestant churches around the world today which is the product of Martin Luther.... a Protestants indeed, imagine they are now 30,000.
And wait they have change it and actively called themselves now as Christians!
Matthew 24: 5
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
If by chance I am deceived by the Roman Catholic Church which I don't believe. It is better to stay to this church and be deceived once and endure to the last in believing Christ than to transfer my faith to the 30,000 different protestant church around the world today who have one voice they claim;
"Come to us, we are the TRUE church of Christ, Be Baptized again for you to be SAVED!
They even name their churches with the specific word Christ in it.
