I remember the Council of Nicea..they voted on Jesus as the Son of God..and it was a close vote. Constantine was getting ready for battle against Maxentius but the night before the battle Constantine had his vision that changed not only his life but the history of Church also. He was praying to his pagan god when he saw with his own eyes the cross in the heavens and to use to safeguard him in battle against his enemies..Constantine won his battle against Maxentius fighting under his new banner-the image he saw in his "vision"..the cross. You seem to know the truth..oh and that God told him to make the likeness of the cross he had seen. Interesting post,haven't read where anyone on here has even mentioned the Council of Nicea.
