Is the Biblical Jesus Christ a man-made invention?
Is the Biblical Jesus Christ a man-made invention?
I've no idea, I'm ultimately agnostic on that question.Is the Biblical Jesus Christ a man-made invention?
Matt 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.No, it would take someone greater than Christ to invent Christ.

I think we can trust the Sermon on the Mount to be the words of Jesus. If people would just learn that much about the teaching of Jesus that is a chunk of change. Jesus stared out with 70 disciples, then that was reduced to 12 and the inner circle of John James and Peter were three. So it really depends which of those three groups we want to find ourselves in. If you want to join the inner circle that is going take more faith then if you just want to be a part of the 70.Is the Biblical Jesus Christ a man-made invention?
We can just read the Bible. We have the Holy Spirit of God to be our Teacher and our Guide. We do not need man to teach us. Even Moses 3500 years ago had all of God's plan of restoration & salvation. Nothing has been added to what we received from Moses. I use that as a check and balance to be sure we have a proper understanding of the New Testament. We may not have the understanding Paul had of the Old Testament but we can still understand well enough to know that our interpretation of the New Testament is accurate.I think that he historically existed but am unsure of the claims surrounding his powers. It's been a lot of centuries since then with a lot of distortion man-made or otherwise. It's very challenging to know what is true. At present its not a question I concern myself with.
I am sorry for your disbelief.I'm feel quite sure that a real person named Jesus existed. But he was the son of God only in the sense that each and every one of us is the son of God.
Please, don't be sorry for me. I'm very close to my Beloved God. I have a deep belief in God with an awareness of Christ that is not limited or bound to a single person or place but is Cosmic in nature as the Light of God reaches into the very fabric of this Creation.I am sorry for your disbelief.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
I personally think he exists.. Seems to have some discernible raw and logically consistent psychology to him. Obviously I don't believe in the supernatural aspect though.
