When he comes, do you really think he’ll get through customs with a 2000 year old passport and no last name?

In a five-minute search, I found two Joshua Bar-Joseph in the Israeli phone company’s on-line database, so I imagine a bit of Identity Theft wouldn’t be beyond His ability 😃

Now getting a visa to the US, that might be a bit more of a problem… But no problem making it to Rome!

Jesus? I’m thinking Iron Man 2.

I could settle on Lebowski, His Dudeness.

Basically, He insists that we all relax.

I thought his last name was Christ. It’s the middle name we’re uncertain of. All we know is his middle initial is H.

It’s tough for Customs to intercept a guy who can walk on water. Besides, he can probably do the Jedi thing:

Jesus don’t need no security line bullsheet. Jesus can resurrect anywhere Jesus wants to.

Zeus: Why you keep calling me Jésus? I look Puerto Rican to you?  
John McClane: Guy back there called you Jésus.  
Zeus: He didn’t say Jésus. He said, “Hey, Zeus!” My name is Zeus.  
John McClane: Zeus?  
Zeus: Yeah, Zeus! As in, father of Apollo? Mt. Olympus? Don’t fuck with me or I’ll shove a lightning bolt up your ass? Zeus! You got a problem with that?  
John McClane: No, I don’t have a problem with that.

When He came back from the dead(according to the NT) He didn’t come in His father’s glory with his angels etc. as described in Matthew,and there are no 2,000+ people living today. So that would have to mean He was coming in His father’s glory durning the first century,at best!!
