Jesus Christ is not a figment of imagination. He is incredibly real and I have personally experienced Him in several ways.
The day I truly came to faith in September 2021 I felt Him reach into my heart and pull out the unforgiveness that I was having trouble releasing; by this alone I know that He is real, but I have much more than this!
The fire of the Holy Spirit that I feel burning in my heart every day tells me that He is real.
I have felt the overwhelming glory of His presence three times, and that tells me He is real.
The forcefield of love and peace I feel all around me since I came to faith tells me He is real.
The peace I feel in my heart tells me that He is real.
The healing He performed in my scarred and wounded heart from years of bullying, rejection, and abuse tells me that He is real.
The joy I feel every day tells me that He is real.
The way He comforts me and helps me to stop crying within 5 minutes if I'm in tears while I'm praying tells me that He is real.
The way I feel like I'm being hugged when I read the Word of God tells me that He is real.
The way I felt His power during prayer in April of this year tells me that He is real.
The way I felt His strength during prayer in July of this year tells me that He is real.
The way He has grown my patience tells me that He is real.
The changes He has made in my opinions, perspectives, thoughts, and in my heart and mind tells me He is real.
The hunger I have for Him tells me that He is real.
The discipline that I have been given not to fall back into my old ways and habits tells me He is real. I could not possibly do this on my own without the help of the Holy Spirit.
If it took more time I could come up with many other examples, but I think this is sufficient.
The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
Revelation 19:10 KJV
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: FOR THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS IS THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. (Caps are my own emphasis.)
Jesus already died on the cross to pay for your sins, so that you may receive grace and inherit eternal life. All you have to do is believe that He is the Son of God who did die for our sins, was buried, and resurrected on the third day. Then turn from away from sin, ask Him for forgiveness, and ask to be baptized with the Holy Spirit.
He can do some, all, or more of the things He has done for me for you too, and He gladly will if you will accept Him and let Him into your heart.
What are you waiting for?
