Another answer from our community:
His life was documented throughout several books of The Bible.
Honestly though, the decision to trust in something greater than yourself doesn't mostly come from an intellectual decision. I believe anyone of any religion will tell you that they didn't decide to believe based on facts or historical documentation. It is only a piece of their decision.
A change of heart and life are the greatest evidence of the reality of Jesus Christ! R. Ishmael
It is easier to deal first with Adam and Eve, as they clearly were not real. Not only is there no evidence for their existence, the scientific and historical evidence we do have is contrary to their existence.Whether Jesus was real can be broken down into two separate questions. First, did Jesus exist? Second, did Jesus perform miracles and was he the son of God?The existence of the gospels does not resolve these issues. However, most historians assume that Jesus probably did live some time around the first century CE, although there is no evidence for him. There is no reason to believe he performed miracles and no reason to believe he was the son of God.
Some say that Mary Magdalene seems to have been Jesus' girlfriend but, like almost everything about Jesus, there is no real evidence to support this view. The stories that they had a child are pure fiction.
There are texts from some non-Christian historians (and others), such as Josephus and Tacitus. For more details, check the Wikipedia article entitled "Historicity of Jesus". ---------- There is no contemporary evidence that Jesus was a real, historical person. Later authors, such as Josephus and Tacitus described the Christians who worshipped Jesus, but make no attempt to vouch for his historicity.
real Evidence
Evidence ?? Heresay!
There is no evidence of this.
There is no extra-biblical evidence that Jesus ascended to heaven.
Yes, Jesus is still real.
The Bible
It is a valid criticism of argumentation that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Just because we do not know that something exists does not mean that it really does not. Of course, this cuts both ways, and apologetics are at least as guilty of referring to alleged absence of evidence to imply that something does not exist or is not true. For the early Jews, the absence of evidence that Jesus was the anticipated Messiah would have been reason enough to reject the claim. In this case, it was appropriate for the Christian Church to provide actual evidence that he was the Messiah, and for many Jews the Church failed that test. In other cases, the absence of evidence can be a supporting argument where evidence ought to exist. For example, the absence of evidence that Paul knew Jesus to have lived in the recent past, does not prove that Jesus was not a real person of the first century. However, when combined with Paul's lack of interest in visiting the birthplace of Jesus and the further lack of evidence that he ever visited Calvary or the tomb, it makes a persuasive case for further investigation. Fortunately, secular scholars can provide real evidence in support of their views and do not rely on absence of evidence.
There is no historical evidence or widely accepted theories that suggest Jesus died in Japan. The traditional belief is that Jesus was crucified in Jerusalem.
