Superstitions.
There is no proof that Jesus existed. There isn't any good evidence, either. I didn't know the Bible needed to be righted. If you meant "write", then, no, Jesus didn't write anything that we know of. Nobody who met Jesus, if anybody, wrote any parts of the Bible. The Bible was written long after Jesus died, if he existed. Adam and Eve are obviously taken from other myths of the time. If the Bible is a guideline, it is a poor one.
Those are good questions to have come to mind. It looks like you're finally realizing that religion is just superstition.

Q> is there proof that jesus really exsisted?
A> Yes. even in USSR during communist rule in history books they would tell 5th grade kids that someone named Jesus walked the earth in first century and started major religion. They would not specify anything beyond that. There are roman historians who mention him, and they would not mention if this was not important
Q> did jesus right the bible himself?
A> nope. Bible has two parts: Old Testament (which was translated to Greek 200 years before Christ - this is NOT disputed by historians as translated copy was in Great Library in Alexandria). So, Jesus did not write OT - it was done before him. New Testament was written by his followers (as book names suggest). additionally, from NT books it is clear they were created after JC went to be with his dad.
Q> who remembers the exact words that he said?
A> at the time books of New Testament were written witnesses were still alive. Additionally, we know that scriptures are "inspired by God". Think of Moses - 10 commandments were made twice...
Q> who was around to witness adam and eve?
A> their kids :)
Q>is the bible just a guildline that we should follow to do good deeds for ourselfs and one another?
A> purpose of the bible is not good deeds, but to introduce you to the reality of Jesus Christ so that you may believe and get saved.
Q> these are some questions that come to mind when i hear ppl talk about jesus.
Keep them coming :)

Jesus did really exist however some of the things that are said that he did, like walking on water are exaggerations. Jesus did not write the bible there were about 7 men that wrote it. No one was there to witness adam and eve until they had children so how do we know that eve tempted adam to eat that apple? The bible is mythology/

did Jesus exsist? Josephus the jewish Historian who had no links to Christianity wrote about Him. and plus all the eyewitneses who seen,walked and was taught by Him. The Pharisees sure understood Jesus was real.
The bible is the inspired word of God.
Men were moved by the Holy Spirit to write what they were told.
Timothy 3:16 states that “All scripture is inspired by God….” In 2 Peter 1:20-21, Peter reminds the reader to “know this first of all, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, … but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.” The Bible itself tells us that it is God who is the author of His book
The bible is the believers way of hearing and reading what God wants from us. It shows us what and how Jesus lived his short life. and how we are to copy jesus's life.

Yes the dead sea scrolls mention Jesus, and a few of the things he did. No Jesus did not write the bible, his deciples did, mostly paul. The bible is some what of a guide line, however we should follow its words. Any more questions just ask.
Case For Christ, it answers alot of these questions, which are just good to know.

One should also note, that 'Jesus Christ' is a translational representation of a name, not the actual name of a person. "Jesus Christ' is a latin term stemming from the Vulgate bible put out in the 5th century.
A second note is in the formalization of the bible collection.
363CE Council of Laodicea names 26 New Testament books as "inspired word of God"; Book of Revelation is excluded. This council looked at 28 different gospels and over 2,000 varies 'testaments of faith' that were being used by the array of groups at the time period.

Although the Bible comes to us from some of the best preserved ancient manuscripts available to man, the best way to find out who Jesus really is, is to simply ask God to show you or somehow let you know. He will, if you go to him in reverence and sincerity, not trying to play him. It's a spirit-to-spirit thing, just like the writers of the Bible had going on.

God and Jesus are real. If not, then who made us? WHO died on the cross for us? Go to a church with strong preaching, there you will know what the truth is. They are real. Way back in those days, God was everywhere, and everyone could see him. Now, he is still everywhere, only you can't see him. People were alive back then at the time of Adam and Eve, but they obviously are not alive, only God and Jesus.

Yes, there was proof Jesus existed. Read a historian from those times named Josephus who was a 1st century Jewish historian. He lived in those times thru the destruction of the temple in 70 A.D. Jesus did not write the bible, his words were handed down from eyewitnesses, as best they could remember. He said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life". Its up to you if you accept it. Peace.

People should read the whole Bible through before making any assumptions.
Read eyewitness accounts and the Words of Christ Himself.
His Holy Spirit has been dwelling inside of me for years now. Christ is good. I'm so grateful He died in my place.
