There is no firm evidence that Constantine was ever a Christian. He claimed to convert after seeing a vision, in 312 when he was fighting for the right to be the sole emperor of Rome. This 'conversion' ensured the loyalty of the increasing number of Christians in his army and contributed to his victory over his rival. Whether or not Constantine's conversion was genuine, he owed a debt of gratitude and took an active interest in Church affairs. In 325, he called the important Christian Council of Nicaea, which he personally chaired. Some claim that Constantine finally accepted Christianity on his death bed.
