Abstract: In 313, in Mediolan, Constantine the Great “solemnly proclaim freedom and equality between pagan and Christian cult”, an event that inaugurates officially the Christian religion in the world. The emperor had the right to intervene in all religious matters and to govern the Church, and His authority in matters of religion was almost absolute. Constantine will become a benefactor and laic champion of the faith, a kind of President of the Church who will summon in 325 the First Ecumenical Council of Nicaea where the foundations of the Christian dogmas were laid and the canons regarding the organization of Church of Christ were elaborated. From that moment on, Christianity has evolved progressively, becoming a state religion through the decree of the Emperor Theodosius the Great (346-395), given in 380 in Thessaloniki, and a constitutional reality of the Roman Empire. Keywords: Christianity, edict, religion, emperor, law. |
