Patron.
After 312 (and the 313 Edict of Milan) Constantine legalized and favored Christianity: he financed churches, granted privileges to clergy, intervened in disputes (calling the Council of Nicaea in 325), and otherwise supported and promoted the church while remaining emperor. He was not the pope, not a persecutor, not a procurator, and he did not serve as a priest.
