Christianity originated as a movement within Judaism that believed in Jesus as the Messiah. The earliest Christians were Jews or Jewish proselytes, whom historians refer to as Jewish Christians. This includes the most important figures in early Christianity, such as the Virgin Mary, John the Baptist, all twelve apostles, most of the seventy disciples, Paul the Apostle and Jesus himself. The split of Judaism and Christianity occurred gradually over the next three centuries, as the church became "more and more gentile, and less and less Jewish".[198]

The Jewish Encyclopedia gives some statistics on conversion of Jews to Protestantism, to Roman Catholicism, and to Orthodox Christianity.[199] According to data from the Jewish Encyclopedia, around 204,542 Jews converted to Christianity during the nineteenth century.[200] The largest number joined the Eastern Orthodox Church, at about 74,500 converts, followed by Protestantism with approximately 72,742, and the Roman Catholic Church with around 57,300.[200]

The 19th century saw at least 250,000 Jews convert to Christianity, according to existing records of various societies.[201] Data from the Pew Research Center show that, as of 2013, about 1.6 million adult Americans of Jewish background—people who were raised Jewish or had at least one Jewish parent—identified themselves as Christians, most of them Protestant.[202][203][204] According to the same data, most Americans of Jewish background who identify themselves as some sort of Christian were raised as Jews or are Jews by ancestry.[203] According to a 2012 study, 17% of Jews in Russia identify themselves as Christians.[205][206]

Dr. Imad-ud-Din was a leading sufi and theologian in the Punjaub. He was appointed to preach against Dr. Pfander in the royal mosque at Agra; he read the Scriptures, believed and was baptised, and with another great theologian and sufi, Safdar Ali, became a missionary to his people. Afterwards he received a doctorate from Oxford University. His baptism took place New Year's Day, 1868, together with his aged father and brother. Other distinguished converts in the Punjab, such as Imam Shah, were also from the clergy."
