However, the evidence is clear that is not true. Constantine did not form or collate the Bible. In 306 AD, Constantine (274 – 337 AD) became ruler of the [[Roman Empire]]. He gained his fame for becoming the single ruler of the Roman Empire (after he deceived and defeated Licinius) before supposedly converting to Christianity (his reported conversion is debatable).
In 325, Constantine called the [[Council of Nicea]], which was the first general conference of the Christian church. Constantine had virtually nothing to do with the forming of the canon and it was not even discussed at Nicea. Instead, the council that formed decisions about the canon took place in 397 in Carthage. This was 60 years after Constantine’s Constantine's death.
It is important to note that 21 books were acknowledged by Christians long before Constantine. In AD 330, Constantine did finance the copying of 50 Christian Scriptures. However, this was not a new Bible, and he did not omit any of the already accepted books.
