I am seeking the truth, unfortunately, you have none. NEXT!
Not saying this is evidence, but, I'm pointing more to your mockery of Jesus. Why do you insult him and mock him? Just wondering....
Jesus Christ was a historical person about whom many ancient authors wrote. A large number of historical and prophetic facts about Jesus can be found. The Bible also shows that Jesus Christ said He was God. Listen to what the Jewish leaders of Jesus’ day understood Him to say,
The Jews answered Him, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God.” (NASB) John 10:33
These Jewish leaders thought He was just a man, but not His followers. The Roman leaders had a different view,
. . . I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, stating nothing but what the Prophets and Moses said was going to take place; that the Christ was to suffer, and that by reason of His resurrection from the dead He should be the first to proclaim light both to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles . . .King Agrippa, do you believe the Prophets? I know that you do. And Agrippa replied to Paul, “In a short time you will persuade me to become a Christian. (NASB) Acts 26:22-28
And Jesus’ followers obviously believed He was God.
But why mock them?[/QUOTE]
Bonzi----I will not comment YES or NO------but your argument is truly IDIOTIC in detail by detail
1) you claim that many ancient authors wrote about Jesus whilst he lived----HUH??? WHO?
2) where do you find PROPHECIES specifically about Jesus in the OT?-----descendant of
David? NOPE-----not even that. The author JOHN??? a latter day nut
3) "Jewish leaders at that time thought" what jewish leaders? There is not a single jot
that refers to Jesus from jewish writers at that time-----nothing. You know what "the jewish
leaders because the NT written more than 200 years later SAYS SO?
there are extant writings from that time-----but nothing on Jesus------A very significant body of
writing on those whom jews HATED -------that famous jew ----Caiaphas. You remember him---
the "high priest who killed jesus"-----There is HISTORIC WRITTEN evidence that if the jews
of Jerusalem would be inspired to KILL anyone it would be CAIAPHAS (and, of course ---
Pontius pilate) .......maybe herod too
