I believe in Jesus...
I don't blame you for not believing in Jesus...
2nd Corinthians 4:4 "In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."
1st Corinthians 12:3 "Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost."

There could well have been a teacher going around those parts in those days who might even have been named Jesus. The only evidence for this is that, based on linguistic evidence, most (but not all) of the parables seem to have been told by one person. There's also some similarities between some of the sayings attributed to Jesus, although less so.
So imagine that you have this teacher. And he dies. Or (blasphemy alert) he decides to retire, get married and have a normal life. Hey, maybe the Romans even offed him like the stories say. Maybe rumours start circulating. Maybe a man named Saul far away falls off of his horse, hits his head and gets real creative with them.
The rest is propaganda that fits what people wanted back then.

That is your belief system, however it is not mine. I will not give you all the answers that some people have tried to convince you that He is who says He is. for you would ignore them anyway. Truth be known I don't even know why you suggested such a question to be asked, unless you only want to hear from people that will tickle your ear with answers that only you alone will accept as fact and valid.
Jesus existed in time, is LORD God of the Heavens. He did the things that you refute, but, you are a little off in your bag of evidence, He is a historical fact, whether you believe that or not thats your problem. Yet to deny His historical validity is in the same way to say that there was no such person as Joesephus the Jewish historian who wrote about him. Or Caesar Augustus, or to say there was no such thing as the Roman empire, the Bible has been proven to be factual in its historical statements these you must have missed in your search for evidence.
Well, there is more evidence to prove than not to prove - but will you heed it, I don't know, will you even understand it - that is another unkown item as well. But in my thinking you don't care to look for the evidence that he ever existed -
One more thing - today you deny His existence that He even was - one day soon
He will cleave the eastern sky and come down on the clouds and in the day you will wail because of Him!
So go ahead deny deny deny all you want one day that will change!
I guarantee it!

He existed because he was written about in China, India, the middle east, and even in other parts of asia. So to say that is kinda crazy. He is one of the most well talked about people in history no one else was written about more. If he was a myth then why was thor only know to the norse people. Why was zeus only talked about to greeks, and all of these so called gods only written about in and around native people. but jesus was written about in over 6 different cultures. Wow that is alot for a made up person.

Just wait till you die,
Hell has no one in it that don't.
Jesus may not show himself to you in this life,
But the after life, you will know he does exist, you will say with your own mouth, "Jesus is Lord."
While your on your stomach, looking into his wonderful face.
So you go ahead, live the life you want, that is your choice,
That is why Jesus will never bother you, he is a perfect Gentle Man, he will not push himself on you. He will stay back and let you live your life.
But when your life is over.
Well, you will know him. IT will be too late.
What would it profit a man if he should gain the whole world and louse his soul, and what would he give in exchange for his soul.
Sounds like, you already sold Satan your soul.

Me.
If this were a court preceeding in the first century it would have to go in my favor since the evidence of the empty tomb, more than 500 witnesses of the resurrected Jesus, countless more observers of the miracles he performed, and fulfillment of a huge amount of prophecies.
The counter-argument bears no evidence other than rejections.

You will believe when hell is delivered up before Him and you are judged for the things you have done. When you are cast into the lake of fire you will believe. What if the Bible is true? Are you willing to take a chance. Do you really believe you are just going to the grave when you die? Revelation 20: 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. Revelation 20: 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Revelation 20: 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

I use to, but the scenario of a person being born to a virgin and dying for his "people" and even the being raised or whatever on the 3rd day is a recycled one. There are at least 16 other instances of this before the Bible was even written.
