Ultimately, the founder was Jesus Christ. However, one could also argue that it was the apostles of Christ who preached the teachings of Jesus. Jesus never said "I want to make a new religion and it will be called Christianity". It is important to understand that Christianity is seen as a renewal of Gods covenant (agreement) with the Jewish people, and therefor stems directly from it. In order to understand the fullness of Christianity, you must have a basic understanding of Judaism. The "New Testament" should also be seen as a continuation of the Jewish Bible or "Old Testament". Like most things, Christianity has had organic changes throughout its history and has grown into what we see it as today
