At first Christianity was a Jewish sect. Acts 15 records a church meeting that set Christianity out as a new religion. This meeting was in Jerusalem. So Christianity originated in Israel in about 33 AD (then called Judea, a province of the Roman Empire).

The Christian faith spread first among Jewish communities around the Eastern Mediterranean. Within a fairly short time (perhaps months, perhaps a year or two, it's unclear), non-Jews also came to believe in Jesus as the Son of God and were accepted into the growing Christian communities. The term "Christian" was first applied to followers of Jesus in the city of Antioch, on the site of the city of Antakya in modern Turkey. Acts 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch, taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Israel
