The Bible Says Jesus Was Real. What Other Proof Exists?

Let us come to the question of whether Jesus was real or not. I think it would be more reasonable to ask if Jesus was fiction or not. The oldest written references mentioning Jesus after his death, he for the first time appears in Saint Paul's letter, written about 20-30 years after the crucifixion.

The historical piece of evidence for Jesus of Nazareth is both long-established, widespread and worshipped worldwide. Within a few decades of his lifetime, he was noticed and mentioned by the Jewish and Roman historians, as well as by the Christian writers. The value of this evidence is both early and detailed. The precise biographical description of Jesus in the New Testament gospels is approximately dated from around forty years after he died. These all we're confirmed by many as witnessed by different eyewitnesses and also provide several descriptions that comport with the culture and geography of first-century Palestine.

The other proof from the first author outside the church to mention Jesus is the Jewish historian Flavius Josephus, who was a writer and wrote precisely about the history of Judaism around AD93. In short, the abundance of historical texts providing the truth of Jesus converts the real existence of Jesus into a broad and deep consensus among scholars where religious beliefs are not in consideration.

Although there is no archaeological evidence that will justify or directly stand for a proof of Jesus. Non-textual evidence arose around the year AD 200. There will always remain a doubt about the existence but when it comes to religion, let us keep it to the faith of belief
