Ok little confused how do we know that Jesus died on the cross and resurrected? Do we have only the bible or one persons thoughts?Or something about the gospels?

Not sure what you are asking for...
Do you want evidence OUTSIDE the NT? is that what you mean?

you know how some people say that people invented god and Christianity and that all the witnesses to the resurrection was made up?

Yes, and they also invented history and nothing is verifiable. Okey dokey ...

Well, people can say anything, can't they?

If you want to read some serious work on the resurrection, may I suggest the following:
The Resurrection of Jesus: A New Historiographical Approach by Michael R. Licona (Oct 7, 2010)
The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus by Gary R. Habermas and Michael Licona (Sep 25, 2004)
The Resurrection of the Son of God (Christian Origins and the Question of God, Vol. 3) by N. T. Wright (Mar 1, 2003)
Did the Resurrection Happen?: A Conversation with Gary Habermas and Antony Flew (Veritas Forum Books) by Gary R. Habermas, Antony Flew and David J. Baggett (Apr 29, 2009)
Jesus and the Eyewitnesses: The Gospels as Eyewitness Testimony by Richard Bauckham (Sep 22, 2008)

And so much more...

I have all of the above and all are good.
