Apostles John and Peter preached Jesus as the stone to all people in the below verses. Acts 4:10-12 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Only the stone saves which is also the chief cornerstone.
And these apostles encountered threats and so on from the people. Some apostles fell away later and some held on strong. Are you brave enough to spread Jesus as the stone who provides salvation no matter what?

What is the argument, I agree with this....

Jesus is a mythical character. Even his alleged home city of Nazareth is a myth. It didn't exist in the 1st century.
More a case of relying on a house of cards than a stone. Sorry.

Many historians of Him era confirmed Him existence! Sorry but there is no contemporary historian who mentions him or any of his alleged miracles. Not a single one. No Roman records of him. No artifacts. Nothing.
Later references (Josephus, Seutonius, etc) are mostly interpolations by Christian forgers and, at best, just record what Christians believed. None of it is a first-hand account of anything.

Even the Jewish Talmud mentions Jesus and Him followers....they insult Him and His miracles.. like His Jewish opponents, the Pharisees in the texts of the Gospel. His enemies confirmed His existence...His crucifixes and miracles. Though they have their own heretical understanding of this situation. In addition, the tomb of Pontius Pilate was found!

This is the view of mysticists. Are you into mysticism?

welcome aboard fellow freethinker to our beloved community Thank you very much. I was just banned from a theist-managed forum run by a Soup Nazi-like character (Seinfeld). That makes me a refugee I guess. I hope this forum has more impartial moderation.
Are there any better quality theists here than the ones I have encountered so far? I was hoping for some intellectual stimulation.
