While it is unclear, Philip the Arab (Emperor 244-249) is said to have been born into a Christian family and to have married a Christian. He may have been the first Christian emperor of Rome. Constantine I (Emperor 306-337) is said to have converted to Christianity. Certainly, his mother became an avid Christian, as did his sons, who succeeded him.


Who was the first Christian Roman Emperor?

AnswerThe general consensus is that Emperor Constantine I (306-337) was the first Christian emperor of Rome. Certainly, he made his support for Christianity clear. Some say that Emperor Philip (Philip the Arab, 244-249) was a Christian and was therefore the first Christian emperor. This is difficult to prove as, unlike Constantine, Philip gave no undue support to Christianity and made no attempt to persecute the pagan temples or discourage their use.Others argue that Constantine was not a true Christian, and only chose to make the Empire Christian to unite it under one faith.
