Jesus followers didn't get themselves nailed upside down, boiled, and headed for some fictional work, they knew their Lord was the real deal.

GOD IS MY LORD AND JESUS IS MY SAVIOR ... AMEN
@joemac84 Says:
People who deny Jesus have never read his words with an open mind and heart. As it was said in scripture, “No man ever spoke the way he does.” Just reading his words, I knew it was truth unlike anything I have ever experienced.. And that’s just what was written down
@wiles3953 Says:
What does that mean that Genre was not available at that time?
I am a Christian who has Salvation threw Our Lord Yeshua. ✝️
@kylenewman6498 Says:
What a terrible argument. Harry Potter has influenced the world more than most people. Does that make him real? 😂😂
@wonderlife62 Says:
Jesus is a popular character like Superman and Santa Claus but they are just man made heroes in stories loosely based on actual persons…Seems we need the infinite “ good guy” to comfort and save us from ourselves
@skeptic_al Says:
Are you trying to tell me somebody invented a new genre of writing? Give me a break. Obviously it was an immaterial space-less timeless being who had a son who was also himself who sacrificed his life and who lives today and has a personal relationship with me.
New genre! Hah! Just how gullible do you think I am?
@tanyabrownshomebaked4569 Says:
Pilots wife had dreams from God as a warning, and Pilot himself admitted he found no fault in Jesus.
@mazt7078 Says:
The genre wasn't invented yet? What about all the other gospels out there, you know, the ones that are not in a Bible? 😂 Surely, they all must be true just because they exist 😏
@peterwhite7252 Says:

@tigerclaw9813 Says:
100 most influential people. #1 Muhammad. Jesus #4. According to historian Michael Hart. BTW, Paul, #3. The true founder of Christianity.

Now that hitch is dead there's no one to stand up to this zealot. But he was hitch slapped many times.
@justincoppock4295 Says:
I'll say this. It's called propaganda. If christ is the most important person in the world then why is there so much missing from Christ's life. Jesus is born. He's 12. Then he's 30. Where is the rest of it? No one wonders why? There is literally a book called the gospel of Jesus and it was banned from the Bible. Why? I believe in a higher power but I don't know what that is and neither does anyone else.
@invisibot6 Says:
The odyssey is total fiction and was written before the new testament
@RepentandtrustinChrist-sd8wl Says:
Jesus is the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE.
No one comes to the Father but by Him.
Repent and trust in Christ.
@stevehughes240 Says:
Your proof, please. Any proof of immaculate conception or miracles, or Jesus. The facts "we're" going on are 2000 years old, at a time when the church believed the Earth was the centre of the universe. I'm gonna need better testimony than that. And, if Jesus was persecuted by the Romans, why is it the Roman Catholic Church. I don't even know if that's your church, because...there are so many "truths" to choose from.
@Kevin-nr9hp Says:
Historical novel? It’s possible, but not likely.
@SamuelEMiller Says:
These guys try so hard. The mental gymnastics is so desperate
@MrKilroi Says:
It's fanfiction
@sachalg5720 Says:
Evidences??? what evidences???
And why not Say Jesus was fonctionnal what's the problem?? Nothing show us he really exist ecept the bible...
@Polimedes Says:
He’s disingenuous. Surely he knows that the New Testament was written long after the events it describes. So his argument is easily proven fallacious.
@mamamarianovits9029 Says:
Wow.
One need only take a look at the pictorial representation of the connectivity between the new and old testaments, to see just how special the holy holy bible is. There are over 60 books, by many authors who lived at different times, all inspired by the holy spirit, with the prophetic narrative being wholly consistent throughout... Furthermore, testing the prophecies of the old testament that came to pass in the new testament ~ with stunning accuracy ~ and looking to the claims made which were later proven true, is more than enough evidence for any rational being who's heart has not turned to stone or has not been filled with bitterness, anger, rebellion and disobedience.
Jesus IS the Messiah and he is the ONLY means by which we can be forgiven and saved.
@SmartAss4123 Says:
Asking for evidence is not denial of the truth.
Jesus we can prove was definitely a real person. The romans kept very good records about most events of the time. With some embellishments and bias of course as every historical document is filtered with the farther you go back since documentation has of course been influenced by the major powers and rulers of those times. The same is true with the bible and other religious and historical texts. The bible is of course one of the more accurate historical/relgious tests of real events barring some of the more...uhhh outlandish tales and stories.
Anyone with sense, reason, and logic doesnt deny anything without a foundation for either the belief OR the lack of evidence for it.
I'm simply not convinced a god exists just because a man in robes 2000+ years ago said so. Just as I dont believe the romans gods, or Zeus, or Apollo's sun charriot.
If a one true god exists it would be comically easy for him to let us all know he is true and real telepathically or physically. Instead or relying on ancient stories and texts from the time of the Romans when they didnt even realize the sun was what we orbit.
@thebumblebeemovie3514 Says:
That would not only be an error in logic, but it’s also a huge insult because it claims that a fictional character changed the world more than any human person ever has or ever will, which includes the atheists
@zadkiel242 Says:
Historical fiction did exist at the time.
The book of Enoch. The book of Job. Various Greco-Roman myths.
You also have claims made by Matthew about the slaughter of innocents which is recorded nowhere else in any extra-biblical source.
Paul's claim that Jews.persecuted Christians is also nowhere to be found in any source beyond Paul's claim.
So yes, historical fiction.
@stephencheung6614 Says:
The writers could have been real. Jesus could’ve been a real person. Those are not the outlandish claims that deserve ridicule. It’s the supernatural nonsense and the virgin birth silliness that lacks evidence, and where theists fail to sustain the burden of proof.
@dannylinc6247 Says:
In ancient history, historians and scholars require evidence of at least two independent sources to establish someone's existence as a real person.
For Christ there's like eleven.
Even the leading skeptics have had to concede the point in debate.
@frankcontreras8886 Says:
Best 😀🇺🇸
@gretaabdallah1114 Says:
11 out of 12 of Jesus apostles were tortured in horrific ways because they wanted them to deny Him, they knew who Jesus was and is and they chose to die.
@damianabbate4423 Says:
Frank is a master of deflection. Instead of honestly answering, he turns the guts question into an obvious fallacy of a genre of writing that obviously wouldn't exist then. He shuts down the other guy by making him feel foolish for questioning the reality of jesus. It's obvious Frank can't honestly answer. Just because a religion is large and influential, doesn't make it true. Christians would agree with that if asked why Islam is so large and influential and that makes it true.
@youvasquez Says:
Serious scholars, even those who are non-believers, would tell you Jesus is not a fictional character.
@NeoDemocedes Says:
If one person can be influenced by a lie, why not 10, 100, a million? He's trying to say that there is some magical limit where if you influence X number of people it cannot possibly be false. Apologists like Frank are just con artists. He's just dressing up bad arguments to make them look legit.
@dennishungerford4146 Says:
historical fiction?
more fuel from nefarious plot Satan.
@jmonie02 Says:
Jesus definitely visited me in my dreams. I never had anyone other than family members visit me in my dreams. Oh and angels. Angels do not have wings, they wear trench coats
@sbgtrading Says:
I was an atheist for 27-yrs...thanks to God he didn't give up on me! Jesus is the way!
@johnhause7150 Says:
Only a liar will deny the truth.
JESUS is the TRUTH.
@The_Lord_has_it Says:
Jesus was also the ONLY person in history that was EXPECTED for more than a thousand years before his arrival.
@awequayzngs1780 Says:
if the book of all books is a historical fiction novel and not the infallible Word of GOD, you all will not be still arguing, debating, fighting, hating, bickering and warring with one another over the authenticity and validity of this absolute truth. The Truth, who was, and is , and will be Jesus Christ can never be distorted or perverted. All the mysteries in the bible will not be understood by carnal minded ppl.
@bennettdeneghuedoeshits2950 Says:
I mean, Santa is pretty damn influential. How many millions of children are leaving mince pies for him on crimbo eve? I wouldn't be surprised if his image has been printed as many times as jesus. But we know for a fact that Santa is not real.

Oh its a good read once.
@oddoutdoors Says:
The new testament was written well after the supposed events. Nyc exists but that doesn't make spiderman real. Stan lee was in spiderman movies, but that doesn't make spiderman real either. You have no actual evidence that anything supernatural ever happened and you have no evidence that your god exists. Who cares if historical fiction had a name when the bible was written? That doesn't chamge the fact that it is fiction with some reality toed in, probably to give it false credence or to explain things the writers didn't understand. Its sad to see thst so many people believe in such dumb stuff when there are real wonders to explore.

@georg7120 Says:
What is the evidence that Jesus really existed?
@georg7120 Says:
They are contradicting, so they contain fiction.
@nunya8835 Says:
Non believers like to point out the potential inaccuracies of the Bible and how it could be "made up" yet you take the word of those history books given to you in school to tell about events you weren't born to witness yet you believe it. Why one and not the other?
@TheTristhen Says:
We have evidences that peoples existed lol.
@terryaucoin4708 Says:
Didnt egyptian mythology (and im sure others) exist before anything made up in the bible?
@user-xu3mr4pp9g Says:
GOD is calling back his church to keeping his Sabbath, the first angel of the three angels is saying worship him ( GOD ) who created the heavens the earth and all the fountains of water .
Cross reference that with the Sabbath.
The seal of GOD is in the Fourth commandment.
Keep it in your heart ( mind )and body.
