What would Jesus Tweet?

"I'm a Muslim, but I think Jesus would have a drink with me. He would be cool. He would talk to me."  ~  Mike Tyson
 
"Hi, my name is Bill and I'm a social media junkie."  I admit it.  I love posting on Facebook and I love Twitter.  What's even cooler is that when I tweet it automatically links to my Facebook status.  How cool is that?

Most of my tweets are satirical; just like everything else in my life.  Since my transformation into a wise ass at age seven, I have loved getting a rise out of people.  Oh sure, every once-in-a-while, the sincere, caring Bill will surface; but for the most part I just love trying to make people laugh.

So there I was, the other day, just tweeting away about something like a sprained uterus or something and I thought to myself, "I wonder what Jesus would have tweeted if Twitter was around when He walked the earth 2,000 years ago."  I know, it takes a warped mind to be tweeting about a uterus and thinking about Jesus.  Welcome to my world.

I know that He and His Disciples would have definitely been using Twitter if it would have been around.  You realize, of course, that He could have used Twitter back then if He wanted to but He didn't want to reveal the technology 2,000 years before its time. 

Imagine Jesus at the Wedding in Cana tweeting, "Found a new use for water" #waterintowine

I can see Him tweeting life lessons to all of His Tweeps, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you...please re tweet"

Perhaps His most simple tweet would have been right before He ascended into Heaven, "BRB". 

The Jesus Tweet possibilities are endless.  He would have had so much fun poking fun at the Pharisees and getting His message of love out to the masses.  Oh, that "BRB" tweet..."Be Right Back."  I can't wait; can you?

Be Well.
