I know that Jesus was a real man. What is the best scripture to use for those who are struggling with this belief?

Scripture is actually a poor tool for that purpose. All 4 gospels were written years after his death, and were not written by Matt Mark Luke John themselves, and Mark and Luke weren't apostles to begin with.
You can however, use EVIDENCE (its that science thing...you know, like evolution?). The gnostic gospels also reference Jesus, as do several non-biased writings of the times.

John 14:16, 18, 20, 26
Read them thoroughly.
The promise for the comforter is the promise of all three members of the trinity.
You might also show the person secular historians, like Josephus Flavius, who makes mention of Jesus in his record of events in the Roman Colony of Palestine.

The entire book of Mathew....Jesus is referred to as son of God and Son of man...he is both...
I think that the better term is that God has the ability to speak THROUGH people...we just don't listen...
have you ever had a problem and a perfect stranger who doesn't know you gives you an answer to that problem... that is GOD and his power...happens to me a lot lately

1 john 4:4Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
Jesus wasnt made by a man he was made
by god just like the rest of us.

god didn't create Man, Man created god. Not scripture, fact.
