Answer 1

Palestine is IN Asia. So there's your answer.

Answer 2

Of course, Palestine is in Asia and all these answers are the correct answer, but when we follow the life of the Apostles we see that they left Jerusalem under great persucution and began to move out with the message of Christ to all the world. Damascus, Antioch, and other places first then the Apostles began to split up and venture out with the message in all directions. Thomas, went east and ended up in India. John Mark and others South. Matthew and Peter North and east to Europe and southern Asia. John to southern Asia. Paul to Asia and Europe. They went to the synagogs first calling to the Jew first since the gospel is to the Jew first and then to the Gentiles. Each one except the Apostle John, giving his life to spread this message that Christ has come for all men to be saved. Matthew's skin was taken off by a whip. Thomas killed with a sword. James drug through the streets until he died. Peter hung upside down. Andrew hung on the St. Andrew's Cross (X) and so on. None ever denying that what they saw was false nor fake. Hanging on to the hope of Christ unto death.
The Apostle Paul saying I have finished the course I have kept the faith. I have fought the good fight. and then they led him out and he got to his knees and gladly joined the Lord of Glory as they chopped off his head.

Answer 3

Asia Minor (present day Turkey) and Syria had some of the first churches, after Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria of course. Then Europe was converted through Greece, Macedonia, and beyond.

As it says in the Bible, to Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

Answer 4

From Jerusalem( in Asia ) to Antakia , in Syria ( in Asia ), then to Alexandria , in Egypt ( Africa ) then to Kostantinia , in Greek ( Europe ) , then finally to Rome ( In Europe ).

Good Luck!!
