You know, comments like this only just show me that it's just that same atheist game where they demand evidence ONLY and I repeat ONLY for the purpose of taking pleasure in shooting it down. The best proof of Christ comes from experiencing Him personally. And of course, you will write all that off by saying anecdotal evidence doesn't count.

Go on. Show us something extra-Biblical that proves Jesus existed--ANYTHING, artifacts, a grave, a monument, an ossuary containing his bones, a relief, just anything-- and then let us examine it and if it is convincing I know that I will change my belief and say that he truly was the Son of God.

Go ahead!
If you or any of the others in here don't believe what is shown on the planet itself (of course I'm referring to my videos I've shown in the past, that everyone thought I'd either faked or it was Pareidolia), that God made with those images.. then why would you believe anything a man would say?

You don't want "proof".


(and since your reply will be something slanderous or filled with ridicule concerning what I just said about those pictures (it always is with people like you) let me say the following (again))

Those are "watermarks" (learn what that means). They cover Our Planet, but only during a certain time period can you see them clearly. Prior or after that period, they are out of focus. They are only in "focus" during that period only. Concerning the "Pareidolia" comments?- Well all I can say is.. if it were just one picture on the subject matter, I might agree with you. BUT a whole freaking story on the subject matter and ON TOP OF OUR PLANET ~ you're so wrong and soon every single one of you will find that out. And when you do and we are all standing before Him at Judgement, NOT 1 of YOU will be able to say ~ no one told me or showed me. He's going to look thru you and say "depart ye accursed I know you not" or He will say "well done by good and 'faithful servant". And I can just guess what He's going to say to "many" of you in here. And don't give me that old comeback "awe you just hope we do" or "see you don't care" speech or something of that nature! Save it! Heard that crap since I've been here.

So, where is the clear evidence of Jesus being divine outside the Bible?

Hush, proof of God is NOT proof of Jesus. That's my contention: there's NO credible evidence Jesus, the son of God ever existed, not that God ever existed.

My gosh if people would just read the post. It says it all.

What a lame reply. You don't believe in either. If you do, where is your proof of God? When its convenient you believe, when not, you don't. -back at you.

Hush, it is quite possible for a man named Jesus to have once existed. But did he or is he just a legend?

Many atheists seem to think it probable that he may have existed. I used to think he did lack of evidence outside the bible leads me to think he did not.

I'm on the fence, but I respect Bart Ehrman's opinion and he believes a man named Jesus existed, but was not divine.

I don't think there is any proof.
And you know there isn't, Mr. thrill.

It doesn't matter.

The legend outlives the man/god.
