How are you defining Christianity here? Are you including Gnostic sects etc or just talking about what became Orthodox Christianity?
So many different versions of early Christianity indicates that the stories of Jesus and Paul's missionary work aren't as straightforward as the Bible tells us they were.
I'd have to check my source but I believe it was referring to all Christian sects.
