NO. Christianity really began with the followers of Jesus in the southwest Levant (Israel/Palestine) and had many of its doctrines codified in the Aegean region (Greece and Western Turkey). Armenia is famous in the history of Christianity since it is one of the first, if not the first, country to make Christianity its official religion. (There are arguments as to whether Georgia or Ethiopia beat Armenia to the punch of being the first country to make Christianity its official religion, but we are talking about decades here, not centuries of difference.)

There is no "one world religion." There are many different cultures throughout the world and many different religions. Some nations have an official religion for their country, but there isn't a "one world religion" of any kind. Christianity is the most commonly practiced religion in the world, but it certainly isn't the ONLY religion of the world, neither is it the official religion of the world.
What is the official religion of Israel?
Israel is a Secular Country and, as a result, has no official religion. However, since Judaism is predominant religion professed by Israelis, Judaism has a pull on governmental affairs. This is no different than how the United States is a Secular Country with no official religion, but Christianity has a pull on government affairs since most Americans profess Christianity. It is a common misconception that because Israel is the Jewish State that the official religion is Judaism. This is a misunderstanding of the term "Jewish" in Jewish State. In this case it refers to Jewish as an ethnic term, so Israel is the Jewish State in the same way that Turkey is the Turkish Republic, as opposed to the way that Iran is the Islamic Republic.
