Question
Hi
can you tell me the place of origin

Answer
The chronological place of origin of Christianity is recorded in the Hebrew Bible in chapter 3.  God told Eve that there would be a descendant of hers who would destroy the power of the devil and free them death and sin.

The Hebrews called this person the "Messiah" (anointed one) while the word used in the New Testament uses the Greek word, "Christ" (anointed one). Both words/titles mean the same person.

I am not sure that this is what you are asking about.  If not, please write again and rephrase your question.
