While there is no direct evidence in the Bible that would so indicate,
there is a
not-insignificant body of believers who accept a document that so
states, namely,
the Book of Mormon. It is thus not 100% accurate to say that "it would
certainly
surpass the evidence ...", unless "the evidence" is strictly defined as
being the GNT.
There is evidence out there; the question is thus not whether it exists
but whether one accepts it as evidence and how much historical credence
one is willing to afford it.
