A Public Faith : From Constantine to the Medieval World AD 312-600 Paperback / softback
by Tim Dowley, Ivor J Davidson
Part of the Monarch History of the Church series
Paperback / softback
Description
As volume two opens, persecution of Christians is coming to an end with the triumph of Constantine.
Soon legal measures protected church interests. Clergy are exempted from taxation; Christian pastors are appointed as military chaplains.
But inclusion brings its own dangers as the temptations to compromise grow stronger.
The following centuries will see painful heart-searching as church and state grow closer, and the doctrinal wrangles of the early church continue.
