What would Jesus Tweet About? #wwtt

An article by Ayelet Noff    6 Comments

This week you guys really rose to the occasion and came up with great responses to our weekly contest. This week we asked Twitterville what would Jesus tweet about.

As with Marilyn Monroe and Ari Gold, it appears that Jesus really does tweet.”

Here are some of the best responses we received:

By far my favorite response came from Raanan Avidor on Facebook. He says that Jesus would tweet “BRB”

Mottipeer writes:  ’Jesus tweet at Microsoft “What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul”‘

Referring to another miracle, tomforemski writes “Jesus would Tweet: I just got pulled out of sea of Galilee – I forgot I had holes in my feet”

Another amusing (but perhaps a bit sacriligeous):  dotmad @blonde20 “My back is killing me”

Many of you wrote sacriligeous comments, such as:  ’Whatever he tweeted, it would only get retweeted for about 3 hours.’ (from ohnperrybarlow). Another interesting post came from Thailand. LukeInTH wrote “still stuck on the cross waiting of die.. boring.. thank god the romans have good wifi.”

Osherlana tweeted in the name of Jesus: “oh my dad”

Christopher Knuffke says that he’s “Not sure. . .guess he would have to answer that for himself!

Clearly Jim Woods knows Twitter. That’s probably why he’s on Facebook:

No, I don’t need to learn how to make money at home.

I already knew what you had for lunch.

And, MUST HEAL FAIL WHALE.

Would Jesus use twitter to spread his gospel? LiviuLica said that he would tweet: “Latest blog post – ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you’, please RT”

Jesus was in Israel, but despite what some think, we don’t ride on camels or speak Yiddish. Nor did Jesus (he spoke Aramaic), but Victor Weigner said that “He would say” VAT IS DIS” YOU ARE ALL MESHUGANA” (he spoke Yidish)…” (Funny, that Yiddish sounds a lot like English to me).

Raanan Avidor who also said that Jesus would tweet “BRB” clearly thinks Jesus would have liked Twitter. As he wrote

“Blessed are the twit, for they shall inherit the earth…” (Matt. 5:5) (Unless Facebook will do something about it)

Rafael Cosentino wrote that Jesus would have tweeted, “Thou shall not covet thy neighbor’s followers.”

When told that the contest ended tomorrow, raincoaster tweeted “Tomorrow is the last day? You’d think Jesus would give us a little more warning.”

If anyone had any doubts, Jesus would have participated in #followfriday. From 7son75: ‘He would have tweeted: “#FollowFriday @Judas. Great, loyal disciple. Always has your back. Not one of those sell-outs. BFF’s!”‘

Asher Idan thinks Jesus would have loved twitter. He wrote:

Jesus love revolutions. Social-Conversational Media is the biggest revolution since the printing press 550 years ago. the same is true abou Socrates and Writing revolution. Socrates and Jesus were murdered

For the last word, I leave you with sageeb‘s question: “are the last words of Jesus, before Twitter crashed, known as “The Last Tweet”?”

Who should we pick next week?
