From the Prologue of Ochrid

This glorious and zealous emperor reigned from 379-395. Constantine the Great forbade the persecution of Christians, but Theodosius the Great went one step further: he forbade idolatrous sacrifices in his state. He helped greatly that the Christian faith be established and spread throughout the world.
