When did Jesus live and when were the Gospels written?

Question

Do you see any potential problem here?

Answer 1

Some of the gospels were made up hundreds of years after the "events".of course it's all nonsense.

Answer 2

The first answerer was correct on when Jesus lived, but not on when the New Testament was written.

ALL of the New Testament, save the books written by John son of Zebedee (Revelations, the Gospel of John, and it's thought, 1-3 John, which were written between 90-100 AD) were written prior to 70 AD. It's been estimated that Mark is the oldest, and could have been written as early as 50 AD, but this is something that's been debated by scholars hotly over the last two centuries.

No, it isn't a problem, because MOST people didn't write about anyone until at least a few decades after the fact.

The point is, the entire New Testament was written at a time when eyewitnesses would still be alive, and mostly originated from where the events took place: Jerusalem.

No one ever denied Jesus' existence or what's written in the New Testament (at least, not like they do now) until the 19th century. That should tell you something. But it probably won't.

Edit: And to the person below me, don't believe everything you read on the internet. In ALL the books on Egyptian mythology I've read, there are no similarities between Jesus and Horus.
Jesus wasn't born on December 25th. Everyone knows that.
Isis was NOT called Isis-Merion or Isis-Meri.
Horus was not placed in a manger. Actually, according to the myth, he was born in a swamp if I'm not mistaken.
The three wise men were not there when Jesus was born.
There is nothing in the myth about him learning in a temple at any age.
Horus was never baptized, by "Anup" or anyone else.
Horus was not accompanied by twelve apostles. Rather, it's thought that he had SIXTEEN mortal companions, and four gods who accompanied him. None of them was named Anup or Aan.
Osiris was only known as Osiris, and he was not raised from the dead. He became lord of the underworld.
None of those names were ever used in reference with Horus. He was called "son of Isis" and "Avenger of Osiris." There were, however, three Horuses in Egyptian mythology, and they were later combined.

Answer 3

Jesus was meant to have been born from 8–2 BC and died about 29–36 AD (AD does nt really stand for After death.) the gosped were nt written until about 40 to 70 years later by the people who had met or heard of christ.

Answer 4

The battle of the spirit spand 6000 to 20,000 years... and take place at any given point of that time... many were future events being broadcast over that period.. It also reflects both sides of the arguments... that called the devil just had to muck up harmony and agreement and found himself as narrator of the events.. that is why spiritual understanding based on the bible is slanted towards the devil gaining power... that is why the bible say... Satan will be called god of the earth and only satan will be called god... so today when people refer to only one god.. they refer to one human who lived to deceive...

Answer 5

jesus never lived, hes nothing more then a rehash of older gods.
example
Horus the egyptian sky god.

--Horus was born of the virgin Isis-Merion December 25 in a cave/manger with his birth being announced by a star in the East and attended by three wise men.
--His earthly father was named “Seb” (“Joseph”).
--He was of royal descent.
--At at 12, he was a child teacher in the Temple, and at 30, he was baptized having disappeared for 18 years.
--Horus was baptized in the river Eridanus or Iarutana (Jordan) by “Anup the Baptizer” (“John the Baptist”), who was decapitated.
--He had 12 desciples, two of who were his “witnesses” and were named “Anup” and “Aan” (the two “Johns”).
--He performed miracles, exorcised demons and raised El-Azarus (“El-Osiris”), from the dead.
--Horus walked on water.
--His personal epithet was “Iusa,” the “ever-becoming son” of “Ptah,” the “Father.” He was thus called “Holy Child.”
just to name a few simularities.
and all this 1500 years before jesus was supposedly born.
