All beit a very good man who spread the word of God greatly. God is great, I really believe in God... someone had to create out beautiful lives and everything in it.
The Bible did not arrive by fax from heaven…The Bible is the product of man. Not of God. The Bible did not fall magically from the clouds. Man created it as a historical record of tumultuous times, and it has evolved through countless translations, additions, and revisions. History has never had a definitive version of the book.
At the gathering of the Council of Niceau in 324 AD, many aspects of Christianity were debated and voted upon - the date of Easter, the role of the bishops, the administration of sacraments, and, of course, the divinity of Jesus . . . until that moment in history, Jesus was viewed by His followers as a mortal prophet . . . a great and powerful man, but a man nonetheless. A mortal.

Some keep the Sabbath going to Church-
I keep it, staying at Home-
With a Bobolink for a Chorister-
And an Orchard, for a Dome-
Some keep the Sabbath in Surplice-
I just wear my Wings-
And instead of tolling the Bell, for Church,
Our little Sexton-Sings.
God preaches, a noted Clergyman-
And the sermon is never long,
So instead of getting to Heaven, at last-
I'm going, all along.

The Bible is the word of God, no God did not write it with pen himself, but he had others write it... And they wrote every word that he told them too... Jesus is a man, yep, but he is no ordinary man, He is the son of the most high... He dies for our sins, and he rose from that grave... How many regular ole Joes do u see doin that? None and there wont be anyone risin from there graves until the return of Jesus, The day that his father, God, tells him to come back to get his children... That will be a grand day! Cant wait maybe it'll be tommorrow... Good lUck

James 2:18-19
19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-and shudder.
(from New International Version)

If you believe in God....don't you think he has the ability to create a book with man's help? Don't you think he could create a Bible under his inspiration? Sometimes I have the same feelings you do......were there books hidden contradicting the Bible or not. That is why it is faith whether you believe Jesus was man or Messiah. I personally believe Messiah.

No.
Jesus is God as well as the Son of God.
Genesis 1:1 and John 1:1

Yes. Though there is no conclusive evidence that Jesus of Nazareth actually lived, I think it likely that he did. I believe he was a good man who wanted to reform Judaism and make it more responsive to the needs of his people but never claimed to be God or the Son of God. In fact, I think he would be shocked to know that his followers made this claim for him after his death and irritated beyond measure that they embellished his life story in an attempt to make it appear to the Jews that he fulfilled the Hebrew scriptures "prophesying" the coming of the Messiah.

This is NOT a question ! It IS a statement.
Never the less, you are wrong, Jesus is NOT a Good Man. He is either The Virgin Borne Son Of God, and The only Way To God, and God Himself, or He is a Lying Fraud !
The Bible is the Inspired WORD of God. God moved on Holy Men as the breeze moves a Sailing Ship across the water.
You have much to learn, and little time. The Bible says that some profess themselves to be wise, but become fools.

Christ is both man and God. He is fully divine and fully human in one person forever. Many verses in Scripture point to this fact. (Mark 1:11, John 5:18)

Jesus was a remarkable and enlightened man whose moral teachings have been perverted and turned into a creed with a vast edifice of meaningless dogma. If Christianity were a system of practical philosophy like Buddhism which I believe is what Christ intended I would happily call myself a Christian.

I believe Jesus was a man, conceived by Mary and Joseph.
For me, Jesus was not the Son of God, but a mortal frame for God himself to walk on this earth and to make clear to those who were ready to hear that he is not the revengeful God described in the Old Testament, but a merciful God.
I would not be surprised If God had since again taken a human body or would do so in future, and a bit of God is in each of us, regardless of the religion. People like Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein or George W. Bush just haven't found God in themselves.
