Originally posted by robbie carrobie pathetic, there is more historical evidence for the existence of Christ than for Alexander the Great, we never hear you piping up about whether Alexander existed! shameful historical bias, conjecture and speculation masquerading as fact. Through him to the lions!
What contemporary evidence is there of Jesus?
Did he exist? Probably but not definitely - his baptism and execution are
possibly documented but not much more.
Even the existence of Nazareth is disputed by some.
I think the evidence for Alex is stronger!

non-spiritual,
evidencial,
historical analysis of New Testament document testimony on Christ's resurrection, I recommend:

He did nothing different this is the entire point, Christ proved through his perfect obedience that it was not only possible for Adam to have maintained his integrity while under test, but that it was right that he should have done so. I suspect that God trusted his only begotten son, after all they had spent eons together prior to Christ becoming a human.
