Eusebius did a lot for the church in giving us all that history stuff that 
we wouldn't know if he hadn't done it, But he practically thought 
Constantine was the second coming of Christ. He didn't see the devastation 
that was coming on the church.

Before constantine the church was visible and the working of God in the 
world (Providence) was invisible. After Constantine theologians reversed 
it and Augustine said the real church was invisible (because those who 
were not saved were in the church) and People like Eusebius thought that 
what they saw Constantine do must be the providence of God, thus 
providence became visible. The whole concept of the church was switched 
around.
