2010.07.26 - Is Jesus a Legend? Did Jesus even exist? Is there no historical Jesus? Well, believe it or not, there are kooks out there who belive Jesus didn't exist! This view has been known as "The Jesus Myth Theory" or "The Christ Myth" theory. Of course any scholar of history will tell you this view is absolutely ridiculous. Nevertheless, there are documentaries (from" Zeitgeist" to "The God Who Wasn't There") and New Atheists (Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and Christopher Hitchens have expressed doubt that a historical Jesus existed!) and deluded, radical, and so-called "historians" (like Richard Carrier and Robert Price) who think this view has merit. To be fair, most atheists believe Jesus existed. But it appears that the Internet is filled with these wild and bizarre speculations. Dr. Phil Fernandes sets the record straight on the historical Jesus and deals with these Christ Mythicists.

  • "Apart from the New Testament writings and later writings dependent upon these, our sources of information about the life and teaching of Jesus are scanty and problematic"

    - F.F. Bruce, a founder of the modern evangelical movement

    - "Who Was Jesus? Fingerprints of The Christ" (WWJ) page 84

    Even NT scholars can't agree on the so-called evidence for Jesus.

  • @Hercules2345 Matthew 18:6 ''But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.''

  • "The Gospels are neither histories nor biographies, even within the ancient tolerances for those genres."

    - Dr. John Dominic Crossan

    - Who Was Jesus? page 24

    * Dr. Crossan is a major figure in the fields of biblical archaeology, anthropology and New Testament textual and higher criticism. He is especially vocal in the field of Historical Jesus studies

  • "...there are very few sources for knowledge of the historical Jesus beyond the four canonical Gospels. Paul and Josephus offer little more than tidbits. Claims that later apocryphal Gospels and the Nag Hammadi material supply independent and reliable historical information about Jesus are largely fantasy. In the end, the historian is left with the difficult task of sifting through the Four Gospels for historical tradition."

    - J. P. Meier, New Testament professor

    - Who Was Jesus? page 86

  • Based on experience - JESUS IS REAL, - I SAW JESUS -

    Since that event I've seen so much historical evidence that I'm highly suspicious of the agenda of those who blatantly attempt to pervert & flatout deny history.

  • @1Mafioso4 You should be ashamed of blaspheming Jesus Christ like that... Every knee will bow. Yours also..

  • @CelestialWolven LOL you'Re just whowing how ignorant you are.. No wonder.. You're an evolutionist! haha! The Crusades was made by the Roman Catholic Church. This Church is based on Mystery Babylon. The Whore of Babylon. They took Christianity and mixed it with their Gnostic Religion. They are now to this day working to bring about a NEW WORLD ORDER and a ONE WORLD LUCIFERIAN RELIGION! YOU FAIL! Evolution IS a religion since you have to take it by FAITH! NO EVIDENCE NO FOSSIL NADA NIET!

  • @axe414 Oh, like the way millions of people have been killed in the name of your God during WW2, the Crusades, and the war on terrorism? Yeah, keep dreaming. Evolution is about as much as religion as bald is a hair color! Keep hallucinating, moron. By the way, repeating the same statement that evolution is a religion, when it is actually a natural process and not a WORLDVIEW, does not make you correct. Get busy refuting my messages, closet heathen.
