Question:
Was the Roman emperor Constantine ever pope?
Answer:
No, Emperor Constantine was never pope. Not only was Constantine never ordained a clergyman, he wasn’t even baptized until his deathbed.
The popes during the reign of Constantine from his conversion (c. 312) until his death (337) were:
- Miltiades (311-314)
- Silvester I (313-335)
- Mark (336)
- Julius I (337-352)
There was a Pope Constantine in the eighth century, but he was not the emperor.
