God desired all persons to love Him and follow Him because Adam and Eve had sinned in the Garden of Eden and were separated from God, and every person since that time were born separated from God.

So God chose a nation (Israel) to bring forth the Messiah so that all persons would have a chance to come back to Him.

Jesus is that Messiah (Christ). He was born to Mary in Bethlehem and was from the tribe of Judah. Jesus was born a Jew (An Israelite. When Jesus was crucified on the cross on Calvary and was resurrected the third day after the "New Covenant" went into force. People in Israel and in other parts of the known world believed on Jesus as the Messiah. Not many years after the resurrection in the city of Antioch the followers of Jesus became known as Christians (Christ-ians).

So because Jesus lived and died and was resurrected in Israel, Christianity was founded in Israel.
