What did the bishops determine to do?
Answer
"This theocratical theory was already the prevailing one in the time of Constantine; and . . . the bishops
voluntarily made themselves dependent on him by their disputes, and by their determination to make use of
the power of the state for the furtherance of their aims."-Id., page 132.
NOTE-The "theocratical theory" was that of a government administered by God through the
church, particularly through the church bishops.
