The Evidence for the Existence of Jesus (part 2 of 4)

Did Jesus really exist?

This video references the following website:
http://www.thedevineevidence.com/jesus_history.html

This video is a presentation of the evidence for the existence of Jesus.
It uses only non- biblical sources and goes through the skeptical arguments for each claim.

It will be surprising for some to see how much evidence for the historicity of Jesus there actually is, in fact there is more evidence for Jesus' existence, as you will see, than there is for most of the prominent figures in ancient history.

*Warning*
Watching this video will take away your ability to claim honestly that Jesus was a myth

Notice Christians have to believe that Jesus performed miracles to believe he was the son of god, but why aren't any of these miracles something like moving a mountain?

Instead they are all miracles that we are getting close to doing as humans, what does that say about Jesus, think about it. We will be able to turn water into wine one day, so Jesus is debunked.

@MrPurpose79

lol. So you're suggesting that we'll be able to create the carbon atoms necessary for ethanol using nothing but oxygen and hydrogen (not to mention the other complicated molecules present in wine)? By your standards, moving a mountain would be a less impressive feat since we can already do that (in theory). Besides, just because we can do something today that took a miracle in the past doesn't make the miracle any less miraculous.

@Innuendoh I know because you have to assume your eternal dictator will always only do things you want, lol.

5) Celcus talk about a person called Jesus. Jesus was a pretty common name among Jews at that time. So if you think that the Jesus Celcus is talking about is the actual Jesus in the Bible. Then that Jesus was NOT born of a virgin, didn't perform miracles and was not the son of a god!

If you on the other hand claim that Jesus did do all these things then you can't use Celcus as confirmation as Celcus are NOT talking about a person that agrees with the Biblical description!

4) Pliny Secundus doesn't mention Jesus at all either. He mentions Christians. To conclude that this means that Jesus actually existed is no more correct than to state that Odin existed because we know that there are people that believed in Odin. It is a non sequitur logical fallacy.

@athlete117

There is no contemporary evidence at all that Jesus existed. The claims made in this video doesn't show this. They mostly show that CHRISTIANS existed but they do not at all show that Jesus did. The only one that actually mentions Jesus is Josephus and that passage is not likely to be true at all. The first parson making any reference to it was Eusebius and he was a VERY dishonest historian (he even admits that himself in writing!)

@TheJordan5056

Matthew 1:1–17 does not agree with Luke 3:23–38, they can't even agree on the name for Joseph’s father (Mathew calls him Jacob and Luke calls him Heli).

Furthermore both lineages contain a person which makes it impossible for Jesus to be the Messiah.In Mathew it is Jeconiah, while in Luke it is Nathan. To this is added the claim that Joseph was not Jesus biological father, which by itself excludes him from being of David's House according to Jewish Law.
