Can Someone succesfully show how Jesus never existed?

you see the answers you get? they can not prove that he didn't exist. Even Muslims believe he existed, most religions out there admit he existed. Where we differ is Christians believe He is the son of God.

Keep asking logical questions, and I'm afraid you get answers like you are.

In theory, someone might be able to produce the historical origins of the different stories of things that Jesus is supposed to have said, to show that several different people actually said them or invented them at different points in time.

Practically speaking, the power of the entire late Roman empire and 15 centuries of Popes have had the chance to ensure that any such evidence was utterly expunged.

It's not a greatly important point in any case whether there was one rabble-rouser called Yeshua or if he's a many-sourced myth. What Christians need to prove are the mythical and impossible things that he is alleged to have done. As Paul said, "If Christ be not risen, our faith is in vain," a far, far higher burden of proof than the existence of some Jewish bloke.

He probably did, but it is a very weak case. There are absolutely no eyewitness accounts outside the Bible. There are a few from several generations later, but even most of those have controversy about rather they were added at some point. At the very least you have to conclude that no one was very impressed.

The Bible itself is not even a solid contemporary source. Many of the stories were handed down and only written later. Several things don't check out with Roman records, most notably the census that Mary was supposedly in Bethlehem for. There is no Roman record of it at all, and there should be. It was a CENSUS. There is also no Roman record of the crucifixion and they did keep records. I mean we have Roman laundry lists, but no mention of Jesus?

There is serious questions about Socrates existence too, and he is much better documented.

Modern biblical scholarship makes a very compelling case for the idea that Jesus never existed... that he was, in fact, entirely fictional.

"There is not a single contemporary historical mention of Jesus, not by Romans or by Jews, not by believers or by unbelievers, not during his entire lifetime. This does not disprove his existence, but it certainly casts great doubt on the historicity of a man who was supposedly widely known to have made a great impact on the world. Someone should have noticed." ~ Dan Barker

"The Gospel story, with its figure of Jesus of Nazareth, cannot be found before the Gospels. In Christian writings earlier than Mark, including almost all of the New Testament epistles, as well as in many writings from the second century, the object of Christian faith is never spoken of as a human man who had recently lived, taught, performed miracles, suffered and died at the hands of human authorities, or rose from a tomb outside Jerusalem. There is no sign in the epistles of Mary or Joseph, Judas or John the Baptist, no birth story, teaching or appointment of apostles by Jesus, no mention of holy places or sites of Jesus’ career, not even the hill of Calvary or the empty tomb. This silence is so pervasive and so perplexing that attempted explanations for it have proven inadequate." ~ Earl Doherty, The Jesus Puzzle

It's more probable that he either didn't exist or was a mortal human. Outside of the Bible there are 2 or 3 references made to him. Also, the miracles ascribed to him are impossible.

Most agree now that Confucius and King Arthur were legends. Perhaps Jesus is also one.

No more than you can prove that Eric the Super Centurion did not exist.

It is generally required that you prove that things exited, and on that you have little chance. There is no evidence that Jesus existed, other than in the bible which is, it has to be said, a biased and wholly unreliable account.

Jesus never exsited that much is true. The reason for this is that in the scriptures yahweh was god, and yashua immanuel is the name of yahweh's son which is todays corruption of jesus. The word jesus was never found in the real scriptures and it was changed to suit some plan of the church in the past. Remember that the bible was put together by a wealthy man that had a penchant to see things a certain way and not god's way.

Can you successfully prove that he DID exist, using some source other than the bible?

If you can, can you prove that he actually did and said the things that he is reputed to have done and said, using some source other than the bible?

Can you prove that he was really the son of god, using some source other than the bible?

You can not convince the decieved. For his time has not yet come. Continue your conviction to the Lord Jesus Christ, continue to be a Fisher of Men, for the End of Days is near. May God bless you and your family for your conviction and devotion.

Most atheists don't dispute that Jesus existed (although some do). They dispute that he was God.
