To Kr: Jesus is God

I see you are repeating the same baseless, and untruthful statement that Constantine declared Jesus God. The Bishop met in the council of Nicea to hammer out their differences. Bishop Arius of Alexandria, believed Jesus was the first creation of God but not God himself. The other Bishops believed Jesus is God and used the words of Jesus to proove it. Constantine had nothing to do with the Nicean creed. Constantine did not that Jesus is God. Jesus himself said it and His faithfull followed his words and commandments.

John 8:24, "Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins." (NKJV)
John 8:58, "I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" See Exodus 3:14
John 13:19, "I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am He."
