Ignorant fools and ignorant of history. One may argue with that history promulgated by Christ's followers but theirs is not the only historical source of Jesus' existence. Josephus anyone?

True faith does require "proof", otherwise it's wishful and hopeful thinking, at best. Even St. Paul made the point that if Christ were not actuality risen - if the body were to be produced - then our faith would be in vain. But there is proof for those who actually want it. Much proof. Even if a person wanted to reject Christ, to deny he even existed is pretty stupid, really.

Yeah right. WGAS what the atheists think. They can think that the Earth is flat as well. Do they also believe that Mohammed was non-existent? Hey Evans, go to Mecca and express those thoughts to the disciples of Islam and see what happens. Both existed and are documented.

Jesus definitely existed. Whether or not he was God or the son of God is the rub. Does it really matter? Following his teachings is the right thing to do.

Faith in Jesus is a gift of the Holy Spirit conferred on us through the Word! Without this faith, Christianity is folly! With this faith life becomes meaningful and forever hopeful and peaceful!

#5~ “...Whether or not he was God or the Son of God is the rub. Does it really matter?...” / Yes, Jesus IS the Son of God and it matters. If one believes God exists, and if one believes that all Scripture is the inerrant Word of God, Scripture reveals/teaches Jesus is the Son of God. Scripture interprets Scripture. Matthew 3:16-17 (The Baptism of Jesus) ~ “And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; and behold, a voice from heaven said, ‘THIS IS MY BELOVED SON, with whom I am well pleased.’” Matthew 17:5 (The Transfiguration) ~ “He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “THIS IS MY BELOVED SON, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” Mark 5:7,13 (Jesus heals a man with a demon) ~ “And crying out with a loud voice, he said, ‘What have you to do with me, JESUS, SON OF THE MOST HIGH GOD? I adjure you by God, do not torment me.’” ... “So he gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out and entered the pigs; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the sea.” Luke 9:35 (The Transfiguration) ~ “And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, ‘THIS IS MY BELOVED SON, my chosen one; listen to him!’” John 1:14 ~ “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of THE ONLY SON FROM THE FATHER, full of grace and truth.” John 14:6 ~ “JESUS SAID TO HIM, ‘I AM THE WAY, AND THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH ME.’” Yes, Jesus IS the Son of God and it matters: “Those who trust in Jesus as their Savior will rise to eternal life in heaven. Those who deny Jesus and live in their sin will be cast out of His presence to hell.”

Of course, you could also say that none of those apostles ever existed. Assuming they did, what would cause all of those apostles who were initially quite timid to become martyrs.

People who have read and studied the Bible are aware of these verses. (There are countless more.) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son... Both written by the apostle John, an eyewitness to Jesus. BTW, most apostles died a martyr's death. Who dies for something he knows is false?

It's a lot easier to prove Jesus is a historic person that to prove He came out of that Tomb. This guy's argument is just one of the many false theories that He didnt exist and didnt Raise and didnt Save everyone who Faithes in His Work. This is one of the same old theories used for the last 2000 years. Denies Christ. Enjoy this life, Dr Tommy, your next one wont be fun; but it will ultimately make you change your mind about Christ.

Of course they do. If Jesus exists there is morality and a need for forgiveness. They wretch at the idea. they want to be god of themselves. If Jesus exists, so does judgement. And they hate the idea of anyone with the power and authority to judge them.

All four Canonical Gospels state that during Jesus's Last Supper with his disciples, he predicted that Peter would deny knowledge of him, stating that Peter would disown him thrice, before the rooster crowed the next morning. Following the arrest of Jesus, Peter denied knowing him three times, but after the third denial, he heard the rooster crow and recalled the prediction as Jesus turned to look at him. Peter then began to cry bitterly. This final incident is known as the Repentance of Peter. Peter had forgotten that he was a weak man, and that without God’s grace he could not remain faithful.

Yet all THREE major religions of the region, and of the world, The Jews, The Muslims, and obviously the Christians ALL acknowledge him, and to varying degrees venerate him.. Even if you claim he was merely a "Philosopher", Is there anything "Harmful" to anyone, or to society as a whole, in any of his teachings?

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that she was not ruling out a presidential run to keep former President Donald Trump out of the White House. Anchor Jake Tapper said, “You still haven’t ruled out a presidential run of your own in 2024, as far as I know. Are you still considering it, or what do you rule it out?” Cheney said, “I haven’t made any decisions about it yet. I’m going to do whatever is necessary to defeat Donald Trump.” Tapper said, “But if it came down to you, not running, and it’s Biden versus Trump, you would you would support Biden?”

Biden Regime Plans to Give Hamas a Grand

It has been clear for quite some time that the Biden regime, despite its show of support for Israel, is really on the side of Hamas. Now the regime is in serious talks to respond to Hamas’ brutal and inhuman murder of 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023 by giving it the biggest reward of all: a Palestinian state. If you are skeptical that Old Joe and his henchmen are really on Hamas’ side, consider the fact that, in November, they enabled the release of ten billion dollars in frozen funds to the Islamic Republic of Iran, Hamas’ primary financier. That followed $100 million in “humanitarian aid”

He fully expects the results to match the ‘approved’ party line, showing that Houston police shootings have a clear and unmistakable racial bias. When the results show nothing of the kind, the professor has to decide whether he is a scholar or a militant.

We've been talking for some time about how bad Joe Biden's classified documents scandal was compared to former President Donald Trump's situation. Trump had things transported to Mar-a-Lago only from the time he was president, when he was allowed to have access to them, with Secret Service protection. The issue was over what needed to be returned. But as I've noted in the past, Biden himself admitted there was a document going back to 1974, when he didn't even have any right to have anything from the time he was a Senator. Then after the Hur report dropped, Biden spoke about their investigation spanning "40 years."

This story will make you miss the days when education was about actually learning skills and subjects that would help to equip children for adulthood. A Seattle high school issued a reading assignment featuring nine supposed traits of white supremacy. The assignment in question dives deep into progressive racial theory and is ostensibly intended to promote critical thinking about America’s societal structures. But a closer look reveals its actual aim: To further indoctrinate children into progressive ideology on race issues. Students in a Seattle English class were told that their love of reading and writing is a characteristic of “white supremacy,” in the latest Seattle Public Schools high school controversy.

The rally was held one day after a New York City judge ordered him to pay $355 million to New York State for paying his business loans off on time and with interest. This case could possibly be the start of the end of the United States as we know it if it is not overturned. The unprecedented lawfare suits against America’s favorite president has not put a dent in his popularity with voters. In fact, it is having the opposite effect.

One of the tricks of knowing when a leftist judge is pulling a fast one is if the decision is really, really long. (snip) Indeed, generally speaking, in my thirty-five years as an attorney, I’ve never seen an appellate court uphold damages so disproportionate to actual injuries suffered—and again, there were no injuries in this case. The fact that there were no injuries in itself means that the case, from ig to zack, denied Trump due process. I don’t see the judgment surviving an appeal, that’s for sure.
