Jesus is merly a plagerized religous figure, There were religous figures with the same Story before jesus was "born"
-- Born on the 25th from a virgin--- dead for 3 days -- and then resurrected,
theres hundreds of other religous figures with the same exact story that were invented before jesus was... And Christian Historians only answer it seems to be is "the devil did it"
Some christians say "god put those there to test our faith"
No I think he put you here to test my faith..

I worship Jesus because He created me to worship Him.

The historic evidence for Jesus is overwhelming. Try to DISPROVE He existed. You'll have to be brave to do this, because you cannot. Jesus wasn't born on the 25th. The Christians followed a Jewish custom established by God, of commemorating the major events in their faith, by setting up a church year of important events in the life of Jesus. The first was the promise of His coming, which we observe during the season of Advent. Then we observe His birth, shortly after. But He was actually most likely born in the spring, because right after His birth, the angels announced it to the shepherds, and they were out in the fields. In winter, the sheep would have been indoors. Too cold, and no grass.

Jesus' life and death has turned the world upside down. It has caused the development of ethics that respect all human beings and think in terms of rights. It is humane; Christians are among those who do uncounted humanitarian acts. I would say that Jews are also included, but their religion is the beginning of ours. The Bible has been published in more languages by far than any other book. Why? There have been literally billions of copies published. It's that important, because it contains the word of life. I love to read, but if I had to limit myself to one book, it would be the Bible. Some people have memorized vast portions of the Bible. I know a pastor who memorized the entire New Testament in Greek, and my youngest son knows a man who is blind who has memorized the entire Bible. It's that important.

The other overwhelming piece of evidence is creation. The intricate beauty of the universe, the fact that so many things have to be exact for life even to exist, the design in every living thing, and the complexity and how beautifully and perfectly their bodies work, all of this is evidence for God, and the Christian (and Jewish) God is the only God powerful enough to have made this. You may have been fed the theory of evolution. It is not a good explanation for the evidence. So I recommend you investigate. Read all sides. See WHY evolution doesn't explain it. I have known far too many people who cannot accept reality because of this theory. And chances are, you were exposed to it in school. So investigate. Don't just take people's word for it. It's not a good explanation.

The existence of Jesus seems to bother you. If you don't believe in Him, why does it bother you? Just let it go. The fact it is niggling at you enough that you have to ask about it tells me that your heart is restless. I hope that you will find peace. But you will have to keep searching, with an open mind, for the truth, and then you will have peace.

And if that isn't what you want, blow it off and stop worrying about it. If you can't do that, you will have to get to the bottom of it.

I worship Jesus because he is the one that taught what I believe are the right values to live by, and was a true incarnation of God, the Son of the true God. Jesus wasn't born on the 25th. We just celebrate it that day because people were used to celebrating on that day, so the priests made the focus be the true Savior.

Even if others were resurrected, they are not the ones we believe are the son of God sent to save us. Jesus resurrected Lazarus and others. We don't worship Lazarus. Back then, a lot of times people didn't know when someone was really dead. They could have thought they were dead when they weren't. So maybe a lot of "resurrection" stories were common. That doesn't mean that Jesus didn't really rise from the dead, or that we should worship every person who claims to have risen. We don't worship Jesus only because he rose from the dead, but because of who he was to begin with.

I don't. I worship Him as my Lord and Savior. As for all the other, they are frauds, antichrists. Jesus said they would exist, and they do and did. Now, that makes Him right, doesn't it? What about being born in Bethlehem, being crucified, not one bone broken. Check out the Messianic Prophecies, then come back and explain away. I'd like to hear your feedback on that. The odds are phenominal that Jesus Christ is who He says He is. Many others are put here to deceive many. the one who will be deceived are the ones who truly don't know God. God will seperate the wheat from the tares. One must know His Word in order to know who is false and who isn't. A Christian has a descerning heart. It comes with the Holy Spirit. It is a gift from God, when you accept His Son, Jesus Christ. We know the truth, and I have no doubt in my mind that who I believe in is the One True God, Jesus Christ. I don't care what you throw at me, I will stand firm in my faith in my Lord and Savior. I love Him because He first loved me. God Bless, and I pray you seek the truth and find it.

Jesus was not born on the 25th. That is when his birthday is celebrated by Christians, however the Bible does not say the specific date, and it has been speculated that his actual birthdate was from march to even october.

As for the rest:

I take great offense 2 someone saying that Jesus was a 'plagerized religious figure,' becuz he's not. Historians actually have proof that Jesus existed.

One cannot judge God by using logic or science. It's not even a matter of any given church or recognized religion. God is a matter or FAITH.

Spending time debunking Jesus or any other deity is wasting your time. When you breathe that last breath, for your sake you had better be right.

I don't worship. Osiris did the dying thing.

Anyway, these details do not take away from the lessons and wisdom in the story of Yehoushua bar Youseffin.

If you don't believe, then why do you care? Move on. Why is it that religion is such a pesky thing for the non-religious? Why is it that you have to keep asking the questions? Perhaps it is you who is not sure of your beliefs, and you need someone to answer this to give you clarity because you're not so sure you don't believe it yourself.

Jesus is an actual person. Who do you worship? Why? Even if you don't think so, there IS PROOF that Jesus is God's son. Also, He performed miracles on many different people. He died for my sins, that's why I worship Him.
