The life of Jesus Christ was not noted by historians of that time (admittedly, there were not many historians at that period of history). Only the gospels of the New Testament record the life of Jesus, and those were written for religious rather than historical purposes. There is still some debate among historians, as to whether Jesus did, as you say, walk on this Earth, or whether he is a fictional character.
John, Peter and James are eyewitnesses who walked and talked with Jesus and testify of Jesus in the flesh. Only an eyewitness can testify of Jesus in the flesh. Matthew and Mark probably also walked with Christ though there is some speculation on the actual authors of those books.
The Bible is a collection of 66 "books" divided into the Old Testament and the New Testament. The books of the Old Testament were all written before Jesus Christ. The New Testament books are about Jesus' birth, life, death, resurrection, and asecension; the early history of the church in the new covenant that Jesus established; and the expectation of Christ's return in glory. Other New Testament "books" are really letters written to Christians about living the life of a Christian in a God-honoring way.
I believe he is. Consider this, there are more documents, books and references to Jesus Christ in history (not counting the Bible) than there are for Julius Cesear. Do you believe Julius Cesear was real?
Mostly you would find such references in 200, Religion. However you will probably find such references in 900, History as well.
Well, According to The Lost Books of The Bible, He did, twice, as a child.
The books in the New Testament include the Gospels, Acts, Epistles, and Revelation. They differ from the Old Testament in that they focus on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, the early Christian church, and the future return of Christ, while the Old Testament primarily focuses on the history and laws of the Jewish people.
There are no more books in the Bible. The Bible is complete with its 66 books which was decided by the church a few hundred years after it was founded by Jesus Christ.
Keep in mind that movies can depict an individual from there point of view. In all 66 books of the bible there are no details regarding the physical features of Jesus. However God in his infinite wisdom gave us something far more greater. He gave us the Mind of Jesus Christ.

Through out the four gospels and the other books of the New Testament we are told to follow the Messiah or the Christ, that is Jesus Christ. If you are a follower of Jesus you are of the Christian religion or faith. Nowhere does it tell us to follow another.
JEPD are not important. These are heresies from the pit of hell. Some German scholar decided a few centuries ago that he thought they were important. Jesus himself quotes from all 5 books of Moses and attributes all of them to Moses. These documents were also translated into Greek almost 3 centuries before Christ without JEPD being a problem. If you believe in Jesus Christ then you don't have to worry about who wrote the books of Moses. If you don't believe in Jesus Christ you have bigger problems than who wrote the books of Moses!
