Internal conflicts led to the church splitting into eastern and western parts.
Around 400 AD.
The biblical canon was officially established by the early Christian church in the 4th century AD, specifically at the Councils of Hippo (393 AD) and Carthage (397 AD).

By AD 400, Christian areas were mainly concentrated in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Christianity had spread throughout the Roman Empire in Europe, reached the eastern regions of Asia, and had significant communities in North Africa as well.
Between AD 300 and 400, Christian influence significantly expanded in several major areas, including the Roman Empire's political landscape, cultural practices, and social structures. The Edict of Milan in 313 AD legalized Christianity, leading to its integration into state affairs and the eventual rise of Christian leaders in governance. Additionally, Christian themes permeated art and literature, reflecting its growing prominence in daily life. The Church also began to establish social services, such as care for the poor and sick, which reshaped community dynamics.
400 AD
The first Christian church began in the year 33 AD. This event is known as the Day of Pentecost, which took place in Jerusalem in the First Century. The Orthodox Church claims to trace its history from this event to the present day. This is called the Apostolic Succession of bishops (from 33 AD to today).

No. They were introduced in a few church buildings to summon the faithful to prayer only around 400 AD, long after the Bible was written, and became common in churches only after 1,000 AD.
Good Friday was established as a Christian holiday in the early centuries of the church, likely around the 4th century AD.
To find the number of years between 400 BC and 1500 AD, we need to calculate the difference between the two dates. First, let's convert 400 BC to BC to AD: 400 BC is equal to 400 years before the start of the AD era. Since the AD era starts at 1 AD, we add 400 years to 1 AD to get: 400 BC + 400 years = 1 AD Now, we can calculate the difference between 1 AD and 1500 AD: 1500 AD - 1 AD = 1499 years So, there are 1499 years between 400 BC and 1500 AD.
The practice of infant baptism began in the early Christian church, around the 2nd century AD.
