Was Jesus real?

Can we trust what the Bible says about Jesus?

Eye witness reports

“Luke manifests an incredible array of knowledge of local places, names, conditions, customs, and circumstances that befit only an eyewitness contemporary of the time and events. All of these have been confirmed by historical and archaeological research to be true of the persons, times, and places mentioned by Luke.” Indeed, “were it not for an ungrounded, anti-supernatural bias of the negative critics, the gospel accounts would be unquestioned as to their historicity.”
-Norman Geisler

What do other historical documents say about Jesus?

About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man. For he . . . wrought surprising feats. . . . He was the Christ. When Pilate . . .condemned him to be crucified, those who had . . . come to love him did not give up their affection for him. On the third day he appeared . . . restored to life. . . . And the tribe of Christians . . . has . . . not disappeared.
-Flavius Josephus, Testimonium Flavianum

Nero fastened the guilt . . . on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of . . . Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judaea, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome. . . .
-Tacitus

They were in the habit of meeting on a certain fixed day before it was light, when they sang in alternate verses a hymn to Christ, as to a god, and bound themselves by a solemn oath, not to any wicked deeds, but never to commit any fraud, theft or adultery, never to falsify their word, nor deny a trust when they should be called upon to deliver it up; after which it was their custom to separate, and then reassemble to partake of food–but food of an ordinary and innocent kind.
-Pliny the Younger

It is not objective proof of God's existence that we want but, whether we use religious language for it or not, the experience of God's presence. That is the miracle that we are really after. And that is also, I think, the miracle that we really get.
-Frederich Beuchner

What did Jesus accomplish?

Are all sins judged equally?

23 Yes, all have sinned; all fall short of God’s glorious ideal; 24 yet now God declares us “not guilty” of offending him if we trust in Jesus Christ, who in his kindness freely takes away our sins.
-Romans 3:23-24 TLB

Is there forgiveness for breaking the 10 commandments?

Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is ultimately the denial of the power of God at work in our lives expressed by our rejection of Jesus.

Hell will be remembering every single thing God did through out the span of your life and you still said, NO!

Once since is forgiven is it totally gone or will we have to answer for it at the rapture?

God didn’t just send Jesus to save us from Hell, he sent Jesus to save us from the Hell we invite into our lives when we sin.

Can one be a practicing Christian and a Buddhist follower?

Jesus cannot simply be liked, you either kill Him or crown Him in your life.
