Jesus was a devout Jew, and the early Church was a Jewish sect of Christ followers.
Somewhat true. Jesus of the New Testament was indeed a Hebrew, of the Tribe of Benjamin, house of David. ALL of his disciples were likewise Jews.
But obviously the doctrine he preached was not the orthodox beliefs that the Sanhedrin approved - not even close. So deviant were the teaching of Christ that the Sanhedrin arrested him and had the Romans crucify him.
Perhaps you've heard of this before?
There was no recognizable Christian religion until decades later after the events of the gospels.
False. While lacking central organization until the Romans merged it with their paganism, Christianity was widespread in the Middle East and by the 3rd century had become such a force in Rome itself that the Emperor incorporated into Roman law.
There is no indication Paul ever stopped being a Torah-observant Jew. But he told gentiles they didn't have to follow the ritual and civil laws of Torah
Do you just make this up as you go along?

8 Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up. 2 Those who think they know something do not yet know as they ought to know. 3 But whoever loves God is known by God.
;So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.” ;For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.
But not everyone possesses this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food they think of it as having been sacrificed to a god, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled. But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.
Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block to the weak. For if someone with a weak conscience sees you, with all your knowledge, eating in an idol’s temple, won’t that person be emboldened to eat what is sacrificed to idols? So this weak brother or sister, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge. When you sin against them in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother or sister to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause them to fall.} }
