Did Jesus Exist? An Essential Guide to the Evidence Jesus Existed

Excellent question! There are lots of archaeological evidences (ancient writings, reports, accounts, etc.) of the existence of Jesus. One of the most prominent is found in the writings of Josephus (a text called Testimonium Flavianum, found in ‘Antiquities’ from AD 93). There are some good articles in the Archaeological Study Bible that point to external accounts. Also, the True U DVD and book series “Is the Bible Reliable?” covers some extra-biblical material on the evidence of Jesus’ existence. Frank Turek has some good info in his book “I Don’t have Enough Faith to be an Atheist.” These are the first resources that come to mind.

Please explain how John 1:1 and John 1:14 agrees with the above scripture using the proleptic doctrine you have espoused in your post. I noticed that Bro. Norris left this scripture out of his book, I AM A Oneness Pentecostal Theology as well. On page 12 he says that oneness pentecostalism has evolved and that it is more recent oneness construals that are used as a basis for oneness doctrine. Your article seems to reflect this thought.

oh 6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. Please explain how John 1:1 and John 1:14 agrees with the above scripture using the proleptic doctrine you have espoused in your post. I noticed that Bro.

That is incorrect.

I believe what you meant to say is, ”
The pre-existence of Jesus is his Deity. The humanity, the Son of God, only existed in the plan and mind of God until he was conceived in Mary’s womb ….in Nazareth.”
