If Jesus Christ was on Facebook, it would look like this [original source unknown]. This is pretty darn funny – even on Holy Week. Sorry if this is irreverent but too good not to share – especially because it’s funny and most of it is pretty bibically accurate. Some highlights:
- Jesus has 777,777,777,777 fans.
- The Disciples wrote on Peter’s wall: So, Jesus told us to walk up ot people we don’t know, and basically steal their colt and donkey… This is sketchy, don’t you think???
- The High Priests have created a group: How to Use the Temple for piety AND profit.
- The High Priests have given Judas a gift: 30 pieces of Silver.
You can check out it out HERE. You should also check out Jesus’ life according to Twitter. Also very brilliant, compelling, and biblically accurate.

too funny! i’m reposting on my blog!
this is fantastic!
Hi-LARIOIUS! I love it!
Brilliant! I love it!
What if Jesus was on Twitter? What would he be twittering now spending his passion week in Jerusalem?
Just conveyed more of The Story to my son in 5 minutes than in his whole life! All the while laughing together.
@steve:
On a sidenote, you can follow the events of Holy Week via Twitter at http://twitter.com/passionweek. Here’s more about this from John’s blog:
I have created a Twitter account called @passionweek. Beginning this Sunday — Palm Sunday — you can follow along with the events of Jesus’ final week. Throughout the week, the@passionweek twitter account will post a brief glimpse of what Jesus experienced at the time he would of experienced it. The timing is mostly estimated. Regardless, I hope it can give you reason to pause throughout the week to reflect and anticipate what looms on Sunday.
@Steve,
I took a stab at the Jesus/Twitter question a while back; thought you might dig it.
Grace and Peace,
Raffi

Looking through this, I saw Bart Ehrman pop up quite a bit, and a quick Google search lead to his Wikipedia page — http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bart_D._Ehrman — this may be your original source. Or, someone close to him that knows he has a sense of humor. Thanks for posting this!

The Jesus Facebook reminds me of this:
Facebook Genesis

Wow, poor Bart Ehrman
. I definitely chuckled at the Dan Brown stuff, but didn’t expect Ehrman to take it in the teeth quite so much (for those curious, his latest book is called Jesus, Interrupted. A pretty typical take on ‘why the Bible couldn’t possibly be historical’ type stuff). Fun stuff.
Eugene,
that was awesome. Funny, but also deep – Jesus being distressed, Peter leaving the group, etc.
Thanks!
Here is the source: http://www.natebostian.blogspot.com/

The french version is 10 times funnier than this. Still a good one
Study the web site, CLOSELY!

I believe in Jesus. Jesus wont let me down. Jesus must come down as soon as he can to, make this earth more PEACE Place. People hunger for Peace of Mind. There is no permanent peace n happiness in this earth. Oh Jesus Pls help us.

Chinyard’s operation is recognized in drought prone areas; most of the
marginal and poor farmers depend only on agricultural, due to scarcity
of rains land remains fallow. Therefore peasants are not getting
