| Problems with the rise of Christianity in the Roman world | Similar to Judaism this religion stated there was only one God This meant rejection of the many Roman gods Christians were initially persecuted under the Roman occupation |
| Roman view of problem with accepting the 'principal' of Christianity | Accepting Christian God meant rejecting the divinity of emperor. It was therefore viewed as a political and therefore dangerous threat to the Roman state. |
| To make them unpopular Christians accused of things such as abominations | their belief in transubstantiation seen as cannibalism Nero accused them of starting the Great fire of Rome in AD 64 They were a secret society and had secret marks They subjected to Martyrdom with their belief in salvation and life after death. |
| Constantine's view of Christianity | As it was clear Christianity wasn't going away so Constantine thought a 'simple monotheistic faith' would unify the empire. Declared himself a Christian and had the support of Christians. He then wanted one Christain creed with one method of worship. |
| Constantine and God | Constantine got round the concept of a supreme Christian God by being proclaimed as 'God's representative on Earth, equal to the Apostles |
| Constantine and non-violence and non-resistance of Christian faith | Constantine used the concept of a 'just' war to provide the means of the army fighting against external threats. The soldiers were protecting the state, not killing fellow believers. |
| Schism of creeds | The Nicene Creed versus the Arian Creed. From the first council of Nicaea in AD 325 when the Christian church and its beliefs were being discussed and documented, there was debate as to whether God and Jesus were one body or whether they were two entities. The orthodox view of one body became the Nicene creed |
| Arian Christians | Those Christians were seen as heretics and were persecuted. Must convert or be killed - concept of 'just war'. |
| Arian Creed in use | Initially the Arian Creed was held by the Vandals in North Africa and the VisiGoths in Spain. Although later in their histories they ultimately took on the Nicene creed |
| Key year AD 452 | A turning point the power of Christian Leaders had begun to subvert political leadership When Pope Leo 1 intervened when Attila was invading Italy and Rome, people saw him as divine. Therefore religious leadership under the church in Rome took on another dimension from that of the political Roman Emperors |
| Constantine did not create unity through Christianity- it led to issues of doctrinal clashes as in the creeds and clashes for primacy. | The growth of the church in Rome under the Latin based Roman church created disunity as the Constantinople Christian church followed Greek orthodox traditions. |
