Is there any physical evidence from the time of christ that would prove his existence?

Answer 1

of course!! the bible!! its filled with ALOT of proof about when Jesus was on the earth and many more just read it

Answer 2

First, i have to prove to you that the universe is infinite, which is easy, anything with boundaries, even indefinite ones, has something beyond them. Done.
Second, now that the universe is established as infinite that means we don't exist, because if the distance between points A and B equals and the distance between points A and C is infinite that makes the distance between points A and B non-existant. Damn but done.
Third, we are here so that proves that the second statement false even though it is true. Crap.
Fourth, seeing as how i seem to have contradicted myself with to true statements, they are; we exist and the whole distance thing, that leads only to two things. Either, this is complete bullshit(which you will probably tell me it is), or, god created the infinite universe.

Answer 3

Yes physical evidence is yourself because when christ died you died with christ; Meaning when you confess that Jesus is your lord savior everything that you did in your past has been washed away because you believe that Jesus is the Son of God and he rose from the dead on 3day.So the evidence is in you meaning how you live, treat people and FAITH, Christ existence so me must go and tell the good news of Our lord and saviour!!

Answer 4

My dear friend faith is one thing that can never be proved yet challenging it is the most difficult of things, when it comes to confronting the faithfuls with logic. My reply to you is that if you are serious in knowing about the facts and the logic please first read the origin of history then the existence and importance of present day calender and then you'll understand the correct answer which may not be the one of your or others liking but would still be closes to the facts. However, if you are interested, like others, in bashing a certain faith for your own interest, my advice to you is 'PLEASE DON'T DO IT'. For it really hurts people when they see their faith fall apart. And remember those who seek knowledge genuinely do get it but those who use knowledge to hurt others are never forgiven.

Answer 5

none at all
by the way the bible is not proof it is a fictional book of stories WRITTEN BY MAN NOT GOD.
the gospels of Mark ,Matthew, John,and Peter were ALL products of here say.Written no earlier than 60 to 90 years after they died to 200 hundred years after they died.none were written by them personally. ever play Chinese telephone a lot gets lost in the translation. If you study these gospels they contradict each other frequently. there are a lot of non consistent details like number of angels during the ascension, if there even was an ascension of mary, if jesus married mary magdalene. the list goes on and on

Answer 6

There are many extra biblical writings by non-religious ancient Romans that mention Jesus.

Tacitus is one. I think one of the Pliny's wrote some passing statements about Him and His followers.

The Pontius Pilate Inscription:
In 1961 archaeologists found a stone inscription at Caesarea in Israel. It came from a temple that Pontius Pilate built there in honour of the Roman Emperor Tiberius, (called a Tiberieum). It says in Latin:
"TIBERIEUM (PON)TIUS PILATUS (PRAEF)ECTUSIUD"

The Bible says that Pontius Pilate was the Roman Governor who ordered Jesus to be killed (Matthew chapter 27 verses 11 - 26).

It is also known that the Roman emperor Nero killed a number of Christians because he blamed them for the fire that destroyed Rome during his reign.

Answer 7

I noticed that there are much, much more people on yahoo answers who are desperately trying to deny existence of God than those who actually try to defend their religious stand. Here’s my opinion:
People simply love to worship things instead of being free like the birds.
Something changed in the year of 175 because since that year they stopped killing Christians. Priests at that time hid some facts from people in order to please authorities hungry for ruling and to put themselves in better material position. Jesus said that only those whose heart is not hardened in sin can understand, meaning only those who don’t look at the world via material prism can understand this faith. De Vinci’s Code is work of a pure atheist who is thinking purely materialistically but who gave some correct points about the Church. Real Christians are not wearing long shiny dresses and golden Crosses. They live among us as modest, common citizens; those that you meet once in life but you memorize them immediately because something about them is so pleasant and kind. They are those that are happily whistling in a large queue at the supermarket or patiently wait for you to move your car without pointing the finger because they have peace and they are free of all obsessions and they enjoy in every minute without any fears because they discovered God. 10 commandments are for our sake, not for the sake of somebody who felt powerful when bringing them. If someone doesn’t understand this faith, he should look in his heart and see if he is actually a good person. It is not possible to buy the stairways to heaven or to cash out for your sins. Tell me if it’s easy to refuse a well paid job over a small time business that gives you opportunity to watch your children grow and have enough money only for basic standards. Many of our fathers did. That is why I’m happy and don’t need drugs. If some one is not strong enough to take the path of Christianity he should think again when he wants to judge others who are.

Answer 8

There are some. The bible of course, the cross and the linen that was used during His burial. It was even televised in National Geographic, because they want to know the exact date it was used by Jesus. Why do you need proof? "Blessed are those who did not see and yet believed".

Answer 9

Flavius Josephe, a great historian living at Jesus' time. Read his works if you want proff that Jesus existed. If you want proofs that Jesus Christ, Son of God, existed then you hav to ask God to give you faith because it's the only way you're going to know....

Answer 10

No, and there doesn't need to be, as faith is found in the heart, and not in objects. If you need an object to re-enforce your belief, or to believe in the first place, than you lack what it takes. What it takes is a seeking heart and the desire to see this old planet returned back to a paradise.

Answer 11

How about accounts from non-Christian historians who lived at the time Jesus supposedly did detailing his presence and deeds? There are none. There are notations by historians much later that talk about the Christian cult and what they believe, but the historians of the day are startlingly quiet about this period when God supposedly walked the Earth. One would think that people would have noticed things like dead saints getting up and walking around...
