Answer 1

To complete the timeline while maintaining the historical context of the spread of Christianity, we can add the event that likely falls between the years provided.

The missing event in the timeline, coinciding with 36 CE, is:

**36 CE: The conversion of Cornelius, the Roman centurion, who becomes the first Gentile to convert to Christianity.**

Here's how the timeline now looks:

**Timeline: Spread of Christianity**
- 4 CE: Birth of Jesus
- 30 CE: Jesus crucified
- 36 CE: The conversion of Cornelius (the first Gentile convert)
- 64 CE: Great fire of Rome occurs

**Constantine's conversion to Christianity**
- Paul the Apostle has vision of Jesus
- Edict of Milan issued
- Council of Nicaea meets

This addition in 36 CE provides a significant milestone in the early spread of Christianity beyond Jewish communities to Gentiles.
