What makes you think Jesus (god) was NOT a fictional character? Of course, you cannot use another fictional piece of writing to prove that a fictional character within the fictional book was not fictional. That leaves you with only one solution; prove that the fictional piece called bible is not fictional. Or maybe you may wanna go deeper and claim that the fictional book called bible is a word of a fictional character called god and thus cannot be fictional. This will bring you back to the first point, ie, What makes you think Jesus (god) was NOT a fictional character?
Confused?
You should be! Bcoz this is a same vicious circle of shit you theist keep rolling in with no chance of escape into the reality.
