Catholic Church Origin
It took years of research before the facts could be presented about how the Catholic Church and Christianity came about. The information and details are vast and too complicated to put into a book but in small sections they are better understood.
Emperor Constantine and ChristianityThe purpose of the establishment of the Catholic Church by the Roman Emperor Constantine was to give him a parliament that could control people in all places of his empire.
