How do you know Jesus was really the son of God?

Question

Or did he just pose off of these ancient Gods/Goddess

Horus-Egypt 3000 BC-Born Dec 25th of a virgin mother Isis mary,his birth was accompanied by a star in the east which in turn 3 kings traveled to adore him.at the age of 12 he was a teacher at 30 he was baptized and started his ministry at 30.Horus had 12 deciples that he walked around with and preformed miracles..etc

ATTIS-Greece 1200 BC-:born of a virgin on dec 25th,crucified,dead for three days then resurrected.

KRISHNA-India 900 BC- Born of a virgin,with a star in the east signaling his coming,he preformed miracles with his deciples,and upon his death was resurected.

DIONYSUS-Greece-500 BC..Born of a virgin Dec 25th was a traveling teacher that preformed miracles such as turning water into wine.he was refered to as the king of kings the alpha omega and upon his death he was resurected

I could go on and on to include other such as MITHRA...So whats with the pattern was Jesus made up to correct Gods brutal ways in the OT

Answer 1

You are talking mythological

We are talking real

Answer 2

There's a book written by CS Lewis, called Mere Christianity. Although Lewis was a Christian writer, he was a professed atheist until he actually investigated the life of Christ. He then was struck by how christianity was not mere myth, but the truth. He makes compelling arguments for the sake of Christ and why he is who is he said he is.

Also, another book written by Ravi Zacharias, a Christian philosopher and apologetist, compares Christ among the differents deities around the world, both in today and in history. This book is entitled Jesus Among other Gods, and it makes the case for Christ as the one and only true God.

I hope these books are helpful - its better for you to investigate for yourself than asking random people who have their own agenda. Perhaps you could find other books that makes the case against Christianity and compare the two arguments and make your judgements based on your own deductions, not assumptions.

Answer 3

I know through faith. God gave us His son so that we would have a way into eternal life. He does not need to be proven, all He requires is our faith. If we do not listen to what Abraham and Moses have to say, why does He have to come down here? And, He was not brutal, he was hurt and aggreived by the sinners, those that did not listen to Moses who gave us the ten commandments. He heard Noah's prayers and gave life and humanity another chance out of His love for us. God was not 'made up' by anyone. He has always existed. And although many do not see Him, he nonetheless sees us, his creation. God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit cannot be intellectualized

Answer 4

Horus -Isis had Osiris' body returned to Egypt after his death; Set had retrieved the body of Osiris and dismembered it into 14 pieces which she scattered all over Egypt. Thus Isis went out to search for each piece which she then buried. This is why there are many tombs to Osiris. The only part she did not find in her search was the genitals of Osiris which were thrown into a river by Set. She fashioned a substitute penis after seeing the condition it was in once she had found it and proceeded to have intercourse with the dead Osiris which resulted in the conception of Horus the child

Attis - The story of his origins from Agdistis, as told to the traveller Pausanias, have some distinctly non-Greek elements: Pausanias was told that the daemon Agdistis initially bore both male and female attributes. But the Olympian gods, fearing Agdistis, cut off the male organ and cast it away. There grew up from it an almond-tree, and when its fruit was ripe, Nana who was a daughter of the river Sangarios picked the fruit and laid it in her bosom. It at once disappeared, but she was with child. In time her son was born and exposed on the hillside, but the infant was tended by a he-goat

Krishna - Traditional belief based on scriptural details and astrological calculations gives Krishna's birth date (Janmashtami) as 19th or 21st July 3228 BCE[4]

Dionysus-In another version of the same story, Dionysus was the son of Zeus and Persephone, the queen of the underworld. A jealous Hera again attempted to kill the child, this time by sending Titans to rip Dionysus to pieces after luring the baby with toys. Zeus drove the Titans away with his thunderbolts, but only after the Titans ate everything but the heart, which was saved, variously, by Athena, Rhea, or Demeter. Zeus used the heart to recreate him in the womb of Semele, hence he was again "the twice-born". Sometimes people said that he gave Semele the heart to eat to impregnate her. The rebirth in both versions of the story is the primary reason he was worshipped in mystery religions, as his death and rebirth were events of mystical reverence. This narrative was apparently used in certain Greek and Roman mystery religions. Variants of it are found in Callimachus and Nonnus, who refer to this Dionysus under the title Zagreus, and also in several fragmentary poems attributed to Orpheus.

All these are from the Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia . It helps if one has the right facts

Answer 5

I know he is not. And the 300+ prophecies ..... lol - if I were making up a fable, I'd make sure it coincided with previous versions. Good grief, by that logic every fictional character in the world is true. I'm sure he was a very nice man and I'm sure it is worthwhile reading and studying what it is purported that he said and it is as agood a source of wisdom as the sayings of Benjamin Franklin or Ghandi.

Answer 6

He is risen! Thats proof enough
Best read your history book the bible.
Evidence is clearly there.
Greece has many myths, but God has given you proof, you have yet to be unblinded by the false hoods of other false gods.
Good reading.
Pilate asked that question, and so did Rome, read what they did about it, and why they were so afraid...thats in the history books to.
Read Jospephus, the best secular historian refering to the Christ.
Read..who moved the stone, written by an athiest
Read Ben Hur written by an athiest.
Did you know the athiest that wanted prayer out of school committed suicicide, she didnt know she ousted eternal life.
Keep reading and skip the man made chronicles
Jerimiah.....blessed is the man that puts his trust in the Lord...OT...true prophet.
Shalom thats peace for good bye in Jewish terms.

Answer 7

His birth was predicted hundreds of years before His birth, by Daniel in his 70 weeks prophecy, and His life in Isiah, again hundreds of years before his birth. Amazing is that not only did they come true, but they happen exactly as predicted. And this only names two. there are many more.

Answer 8

Every counterfeit is based on one Genuine. Jesus was the only One that not only said that He was the only Way, Truth and Life, but was able to PROVE it. No other holy book or philosophy or god of old can prophesy. Only God through the pages of scripture. So Who is the genuine, and who is the copy?

Answer 9

Mat 16:16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Mat 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed [it] unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Answer 10

Chances are...perhaps Jesus wasn't even real and is only yet another spin-off of that same storyline. OR...perhaps he did exist, but the facts of his real existence got swallowed up by those stories.

Answer 11

I know it just as I know that the air we breathe contains oxygen, even though I can't see it!
Without either, we'd all be dead! Through Jesus, though, we have eternal life in the kingdom of heaven!
