No historical record of Christ? Haha yet do people ever consider that the
Year of their calandars is calibrated give or take some years to the birth
of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Which was calulated when? By whom? Was the calculation correct? A sixth
century guesstimate is hardly an historical proof of Jesus Christ.
There is indeed a historical record of Jesus, but you have no clue what that
comprises.
Everything Christ did was in fulfillment of the Scriptures documenting for
you that God is with us always.
Fulfilling scriptures is quite an easy task when one can search the sources
of these prophecies some years after they were made and then compose a
narrative that claims to fulfill the prophecies.

What he said:
So while "Jesus Christ" can not be truthfully found in the records of
history,
it can easily be concluded that the character "Jesus Christ" of the
New
Testament was based on a compendium of Yeshua Ben Pandeira and
Apollonius
of
Tyana, and which is really not a bad thing either, since the teachings
of
"Jesus
Christ" are, when applied in a manner that does no harm to any other
people for
their own beliefs, perhaps as good a set of teachings as any in the
world
today,
and throughout history.
