Based on The Lost Gospel Q by Burton L. Mack., you discover son of God and crucifixion stories didn't emerge until 40 to 50 years after Jesus was murdered. Mark does a brilliant job of extracting the missing gospel Q from the four gospels and extracting a time line for the “Jesus movement.” For those lacking understanding or ability, Mack’s analysis is indiscernible. Prior to Jesus movement leaders circulating those stories, Jesus was regarded as a wise man or sage. Then, we have The Gospel of Thomas. About 40% of verses from Thomas are in the four NT gospels. What remains are physical fragments. Here are some of them: The Gospel of Mary, The Gospel of Peter, and The Gospel of Judas.
