Catholic AnswerChristianity began in Israel with the resurrection of Jesus and the establishment of the Catholic Church by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.

Another Answer:

Jesus came to establish God's Church on Earth, headquartered in Jerusalem, with Him as the Spiritual Head (Apostle James was Head in Jerusalem while Peter was Head in Babylon for a time). It began at the first Pentecost which happened on a Sunday, 50 days after Christ's Resurrection. In approximately a dozen verses, this Church is called the Church of God (usually at a city named but one Church - ie... Church of God at Corinth). No other differentiation/name/title was noted formally until the end of the fourth Century AD.

Acts 20:28New King James Version (NKJV)

28 Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
