Is there any historical proof of jesus of the new testament?

The bible is what is called "Faction” A fictional story set in a factual time and place. Thus the time, place and real historical characters are all correct but the fictional characters and stories are not!

There is not one single mention of Jesus in the entire Roman record - that is right - not one! At the same time as he was supposed to have been around there were a number of Jews claiming to be the messiah - all of whom are well recorded!

There is not a single contemporary record from any source and even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!

He was supposed to have been a huge problem to the Romans and produced wonderful miracles but still not one contemporary record?

Even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!

Pilate is recorded in the Roman record as a somewhat lack luster man but no mention of a Jesus, a trial or crucifixion that would surely have been used to make him look brighter!

At best he was an amalgam of those others but almost certainly never existed!

Not one word of it is contemporary with the period and was not written until several hundred years after the period the story is set in!! How did the apostles write their books more than a hundred years after they would have been dead?

Christianity is an invention of the Italians and that is why it came from the Holy ROMAN Catholic church!

Please realize that those claims for the Old historians are worthless since they were not even born until long after everyone in the stories would have been so long dead!

Josephus AD 37 – AD 100

Tacitus AD 56 – AD 120

Suetonius - 69 – 130 AD

Pliny the Younger, 61 AD – 112 AD

Justin Martyr (Saint Justin) AD103–165 AD

Lucian - AD 120 -180 AD but he was hostile to Christianity and openly mocked it.

Pamphilius AD 240-309 AD

Eusebius AD 263 – 339 AD

Photius AD 877 – 886 AD

Thallus - But there are no actual record of him except a fragment of writing which mentions the sack of Troy [109 BC] Showing that he was clearly not alive in biblical times.

Some even try to use Seneca. 4 BCE – 65 CE but as a Stoic Philosopher he opposed religion yet made not a single mention of a Jesus or Christianity!

Even funnier is trying to claim Celsus AD ? – 177 AD Who said that Jesus was a Jew who’se mother was a poor Jewish girl whose husband, who was a carpenter, drove her away because of her adultery with a Roman soldier named Panthera. She gave birth to an illegitimate child named Jesus. In Egypt, Jesus became learned in sorcery and upon his return presented himself as a god.

Firstly, everyone, including all Christians know that Yeshua (incorrectly translated to Jesus).

The biggest bit of proof that Jesus existed is that there are ancient transcripts of his trial. He is not a figure only found in the Bible, many Roman texts speak of him, along with other cultures. Now if you had have claimed that Jesus was not divine but merely a prophet, your theories might have some credence, but you have claimed PROOF that Jesus is not real, when it is actually historical fact that the man did exist. Did the authors of the various books in the New Testament make exaggerated claims? probably. Did they turn a prophet into a Devine entity? It would seem so. No matter your religious convictions the teacher that was Yeshua most definitely lived as much just as much as other kings and queens lived. Just because you did not have modern technology to prove so does not mean they never existed.

Why are you asking a question to random people? You should ask a educated and trusted historian. I'm sure they would tell you the same thing.

The fact is the New Testament is recognized as historical evidence of Jesus - as well as other extra-biblical texts. Arguments against the existence of Jesus are actually quite new, it is difficult to document anybody making that argument prior to the 19th century. Even today, those making arguments against the historicity of Jesus are seen as fringe by the mainstream historical community,.

The NT was created by 5 contemporaries of Jesus. It was finished by the early 2nd century. At that point, manuscripts and multiple secular historical references begin to occur. There are many archaeological finds proving NT events, people, etc, including but not limited to the Pilate Stone, the Ciaphas and James (his brother) Ossuaries, the House of Peter where Jesus taught and performed miracles, the tomb of Philip in Hierapolis, and many etc.'s.

There is some evidence that he existed, though it's by no means conclusive. There is no evidence, however, that he was anything more than human.

Yes, he was a con artist, but he existed.

there is no historical proof that my ancestors existed. but i'm still here. get used to it.

Yes... LOADS. The best I can do is recommend you read the book, "Jesus on Trial," by David Limbaugh. He covers this and much more... and it is ALL DOCUMENTED and footnoted.

Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe.” (John 20:28-29)

MARANATHA! Come, Lord Jesus, COME!

Well, yes and no. Summary of controversy at:

None whatsoever.
