"Was jesus himself a christian?"

Obviously He can't be a follower of Himself,can He?

"Did he ever see the bible(as it is today)?"

Not all of it.Of course He was very familiar with the Old Testament books.

"Did he ever go to church on sunday?"

Um,no.He was a travelling teacher,who taught in many places including synagogues.

"Was he born on 25 december?"

No.

1.The teaching of Jesus is what started Christianity
2.He speaks often of the Old Testament. The New testament is the story of him
3.Probably on Saturday when young, traveled with his ministry later
4. No not born on December 25th. The Roman emperor Constantine, trying to satisfy both Christians and Pagans used the Winter solstice to celebrate the Holiday for both (politicians were no different then)
5.There is no known picture of Jesus. But his life is recorded by both Christian and secular writers.

Jesus was a Jew.
A big part of the Bible was written after he died, so he never saw it all.
Churches didn't exist yet, so no, he didn't go to church on Sundays.
He was not born on 25th December. He was born in fall, most probably in September, although the exact date is not known.
Nobody knows exactly what he looked like.

The only thing Jesus had to do with Christianity is that he was the inspiration for those who started Christianity after his death.

1. Jesus was not a Christian. He was a Jew, but he founded the Christian Church. "And so I tell you. Peter; you are a rock, and on this rock foundation I will build my church, and not even death will ever be able to overcome it. I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of heaven; what you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven and what you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven." - Matthew 16,18-20
2. Not the Bible as we know it today, but the Old Testament which Jews called the Torah.
3. No, being a Jew he went to the synagogue on a Sabbath which is Saturday. Are you a Sabbatist?
There are many justifiable reasons why Christians worship on a Sunday, but I will not explain it now.
4. No one can say with certainty his exact date of birth. Is it really that important to you what day we celebrate his birth?
5. I don't think so. God allows us to perceive him in countless ways. He looks at the intentions of our heart.

Peace and every blessing!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus

Jesus (8–2 BC/BCE to 29–36 AD/CE), also known as Jesus of Nazareth, is the central figure of Christianity. He is commonly referred to as Jesus Christ, where "Christ" is a title derived from the Greek christós, meaning the "Anointed One", which corresponds to the Hebrew-derived "Messiah". The name "Jesus" is an Anglicization of the Greek Iesous, itself believed to be a transliteration of the Hebrew יהושע Yehoshua or Hebrew-Aramaic ישוע Yeshua, meaning "YHWH is salvation."

The main widely-accepted sources of information regarding Jesus' life and teachings are the four canonical Gospels of the New Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Most scholars in the fields of history and biblical studies agree that Jesus was a Galilean Jew, was regarded as a teacher and healer, was baptized by John the Baptist, and was crucified in Jerusalem on orders of the Roman Governor Pontius Pilate under the accusation of sedition against the Roman Empire.A small number of scholars and authors question the historical existence of Jesus, with some arguing for a completely mythological Jesus
