My 'Proof' is the eyewitnesses who saw Him AFTER His resurrection, the eyewitness testimony of the Bible
Right the "bible" which is what exactly? A bunch of ??? Nothing Tangible to see here..
,
the Secular Writings of Him and His resurrection from His day and shortly thereafter by those who were contemporary with Him
So to paraphrase that, hearsay evidence.
and shortly thereafter, the early Church writings, the Apocryphal writings, the explosion of Christianity after the resurrection (Had He not risen from the dead, He would have been exposed as a fraud and Christianity would have died then and there)
"Virtually all modern scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed historically, although the quest for the historical Jesus has produced little agreement on the historical reliability of the Gospels and on how closely the Jesus portrayed in the Bible reflects the historical Jesus."
, the changed lives, the fulfilled prophecies of the Bible of Christ, Israel and other issues and on and on and on...
In Jewish eschatology, the term Messiah came to refer to a future Jewish king from the Davidic line, who will be "anointed" with holy anointing oil, to be king of God's kingdom, and rule the Jewish people during the Messianic Age. In Judaism, the Messiah is not considered to be God or a pre-existent divine Son of God. He is considered to be a great political leader that has descended from King David. That is why he is referred to as Messiah ben David, which means "Messiah, son of David". The messiah, in Judaism, is considered to be a great, charismatic leader that is well oriented with the laws that are followed in Judaism. He will be the one who will not "judge by what his eyes see" or "decide by what his ears hear".
So right there two interpretations, Jesus is the son of God, or Jesus is the Messiah.
There are how many off shoots of this? oh don't forget Islam is also one.
The Quran identifies Jesus (Isa) as the messiah (Masih), who will one day return to earth. At the time of the second coming, "according to Islamic tradition, Jesus will come again and exercise his power of healing. He will forever destroy falsehood, as embodied in the Daj-jal, the great falsifier, the anti-Christ. Then God will reign forever."
My FAITH is backed up by the evidence. Your FAITH that it's not true isn't.
So seems the evidence of your faith is not all that clear.
Ummm my faith is pretty true. Just out of curiosity, do you even have an idea of my faith? I doubt it, some Christians seem to forget their Christian teaching, except the parts that fit their own picture of their faith.
