Constantine was not converted to Christianity. He was a Mithraist and his imperial cult was Sol Invictus - the Sun. The story of his conversion is a rework of his vision of Apollo. There is another story of a deathbed conversion, which is a later story not supported by contemporary evidence. He selected Christianity as an addition to his power, as he could control it through the bishops. Mithraism did not have such a structure so he chose Christianity as a secondary grip on power.

∙ 8y agoEven before the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, an acolyte reported that Constantine had seen a vision of the god Apollo in the sky. However, most modern scholars believe that this story did not originate with Constantine. A later story was that he saw a cross in the sky, leading him to become a Christian.
