Actually, as it seems you know, Jesus (Yeshua) neither set out to nor did found a new religion. I recently published what ended up being my first boosted piece and only my second ever further distributed piece, https://medium.com/illumination-curated/lets-talk-about-atheists-and-bible-beating-believers-in-the-god-of-abraham-fe139f4833f3 , I cut this before publishing:

"Humans, mostly men, created religions, not any higher power nor Jesus, who was and remained a very faithful Jew, whose soul, an Ascended Master residing in the highest vibrational level of “Heaven,” descended to our dimension to incarnate within him and gave Jesus access to universal knowledge normally not provided to the human symbiote. He did not set out to start a new religion nor did he (logical scholars assert he did not found Christianity as the founding tenet of the religion is the resurrection, which if it happened, obviously happened after Jesus’s death), but rather to spread his teachings, founded in Judaism, about how people should treat each other, especially the poor, and ethical duties such as tzedakah, and to call out the hypocrisy of each of the Temple Priests, the aristocracy (Sadducees) and the middle class (Pharisees), and to bring Torah to the farmers and other workers who had not been afforded access."
