  What evidence is there for a biblical jesus?

  is there any independently verified evidence that a miracle worker called jesus existed and did the things that the bible said he did?.

  the four gospels were written by unknown authors many decades after the so called events, so can't be considered as eyewitness accounts.

  i think that there may have been a apocalyptic preacher who was executed by the romans and the story evolved from their.

  All dated decades after the so called events, so not eyewitness accounts, no proof that he was anything more than a end of time preacher who upset the Romans so they executed him like many others at that time.

  Are you going to wait until you actually see Jesus in the flesh? (He is coming back again in a materialized body.)

  Can you please provide independently verified evidence that jesus came in the first place, because he can't return if he never arrived in the first place.

  Can you Be specific in your evidence.

  If you can't produce any evidence at least be honest about it and admit there isn't any.
  That your beliefs in jesus are a matter of faith rather than facts

  f a person feels threatened by truth, it's because that "threatened" person's conscience is bothering them. It has nothing to do with the person who stated the truth, although the typical response from a person who is in denial is to blame the messenger.

  The truth of the matter is that nobody has provided any evidence that jesus existed, so why should my conscience bother me that's the truth of the matter.

  And that your imaginary friend has a imaginary sword doesn't bother me either.

  No I'm not there is no evidence for god ,so the bible is the uninspired word of man used as a means to control and manipulate people.

  . If you reject the scriptures it will be to your detriment .

  Why do you have to resort to threatening speak to make your point.

  All scriptures are inspired of god and beneficial for teaching, reproving and setting things straight.

  If god inspired these men with such a important message about his son and the future of mankind, you would think he would have made sure that their story's all match up and no contradictions ,and would have made sure that the message was clear and understandable with no ambiguity and the original copys were preserved for our day.

  The four gospels were written decades after the so called events by unknown authors, so they are not eyewitnes of anything the so called jesus did or said .there is no evidence that the jesus of the gospels had any supernatural powers

  If he existed he was just a end of time preacher who upset the romans so they killed him and the stories grew from there.

  What swayed me most about the authenticity of the Gospel accounts are their contents. I have read lots of books before, but they were special. Very few contradictions and some excellent advice and moral guidance in there. And as for the theory that a disciple or groups of disciples came together and sucked all of it out their thumbs is somewhat hard to swallow. And as already discussed, to be willing to die for a big lie is highly unlikely from a human standpoint.

  Bart Ehrman gets his new students who were manly fundamentalist Christian who believed the gospels as being inspired to get a bible and a pen and writing pad and starting with Matthew take notes of major events about jesus life and ministry and parables and his death etc ,then do the same with the other gospels and then compare them to see if any contradictions.

  Or as James tabor a biblical scholar encourages that people read the new testament in date order ,all the letters of paul first then the gospels that were written decades later and see then if it makes sense.

  The four gospels accounts were written by unknown authors many decades after the so called events, so there's no way to claim that your jesus even uttered those words.

  The evidence has been clearly shown and explained that a miracle worker called jesus never existed.

  It madness to refuse to acknowledge the clear evidence .

  Paul wrote decades after some of the events recorded in the gospels took place

  Paul wrote his letters at least two decades before the first gospel was written by an unknown author and failed to mention any miracles etc ,only that jesus was executed and about his supposed resurrection, Paul was not a eyewitness to any thing, he never meet the man.
