8A2-CT Jesus: Fact or fiction? True/false 1. Jesus was a real person 2.

Jesus was only written about in the Bible 3. Jesus was only written about by Christians 4. You cant prove Jesus lived 5. Believing he lived and believing he was Gods Son are completely separate things 6. Theres more evidence for believing in someone like Julius Caesar than Jesus I dont believe Jesus lived because he is a person that some old crazy person made up thousands of years ago so that he could be famous and start up a religion because he believed that some wacko person could be a God!! I do believe Jesus lived because I have been told stories about the prayers he has answered and the way he helps people and I believe all the Bible stories he died to save us I believe in the Holy Bible, Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit I grew up in a Christian community/Church personal experience has shown me that God exist documents have proven Jesus did live he could have lived but not done all those amazing things in my mind I believe there was a kind man Jesus but dont believe in God or think hes the son of God there is historical evidence that proved that his body was on earth there is evidence that he did live and that he died at the age of 33 but I find it hard to believe that he was the son of God I dont think Jesus was Jesus, he was just a guy I like to believe that there is someone there after I die, I dont like the idea of only one God though it is able to prove whether the Bible was right and that people should follow Jesus or believe in him he can help us and our lives my opinion wouldnt change if he didnt live because hes still there in spirit form and guides us in our daily lives It doesnt matter if he did live because it was already mentioned in the Bible that Jesus was going to come back the stories and morals in the Bible will not change if Jesus is real or not I would still believe even though he came down nothing changed True 14 3 2 4 13 10 False 2 14 15 14 4 6

 he can still help us from heaven which he always has he cant prove he was the son of God It does matter if he did live because millions of people believe in him it psychologically gives Christians hope about their religion we wouldnt be aware of an existent God it shapes the society of humanity today and how they live/behave and their thoughts on Jesus he made the difference in peoples lives without him life would be pointless it effects peoples way in which we believe in God Jesus teachings effect the way Christians live their lives everybody can make an impact on things even if they are only alive for one minute a lot of people believe in him and learn about all the courageous things he did and its an important part of their life It wouldnt matter to Christian beliefs if he didnt live because if there wasnt Jesus people would believe in someone else the main beliefs are morals, not stories It would matter to Christian beliefs if he didnt live because Jesus died on the cross and Christians believed the God sacrificed his only son to save the people from sins so they could be forgiven Christianity would be a total lie Jesus was the one who died for us and saved our sins these Bible stories effect the way in which people carry out their lives the beliefs would change completely as he was Gods son and communicated everything from God to the people those events about Jesus are really basic beliefs in Christianity everything leads up to it then people might question how he died to save our sins if he did not live God may be denied without giving proof Jesus was the proof I would like to know the basic beliefs of Jesus because I believe they are good and nice things it would change their opinions Questions How did Mary become pregnant with Jesus if she was a virgin? Could Jesus be part God, part Mary, and part Joseph? Why did God choose Mary? If it was because of Josephs heritage and ancestry line, why not someone else with background of Christian importance? Was Mary really just OK with having Gods child and not her own?

Why did Jesus die and then go back to heaven really soon after the resurrection? Why couldnt Jesus live to a ripe old age after that? Those people who half die or something like that and then come back what if Jesus did that? Did Jesus know he was coming back? How do we know that Jesus is coming back ever again? How did Jesus perform his miracles if maybe he wasnt really Gods son? How come he came back to life 3 days after he died not immediately did he want to create suspense? Did he create the world? Do we have proof that Jesus existed? Why was he the chosen one? How can he see everything everyone does? Whats the difference between God and Jesus? Did God live? Who is Jesus really? How do we know he died where is the evidence? Where did Jesus teenage years go? Hes a newborn then an adult? How? : (
