I Must Have Missed the Holy Book Signing

One of my longtime readers, Caroline, dropped a goodie on my Facebook wall and I shook my head so hard I sued myself for assault. Look:

Signed Holy Bible

It says “signed copy.” *looks around* Ummmm who signed this Bible? Word on the street is that Jesus ain’t back yet so unless I missed something, I’m really perplexed as to the signee. Like completely confused.

Did Jesus have an event at Barnes & Noble that no one told me about? Because that is one newsletter notification I KNOW I didn’t unsubscribe for. Somebody dropped the ball if that was the case. They know I love Christ. I shoulda been first in line for that signature.

Who signed this book and who gave them the right? Was it Morgan Freeman? Cecily Tyson? Barbara Walters? Because those three could sign this book and it’d be justified. Seeing as how they were instrumental in the creation. Barbara typed the book up as Morgan narrated and Cecily was head editor. She made sure no spelling errors were present. If it wasn’t one of this trinity, then I say NAWL!

Maybe it was Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. Either way, I hope they’re sharing the proceeds with Jesus because embezzling Christ’s funds ain’t just gon be jail time but eternal condemnation in Texas at high noon in the middle of summer with no shade and four sweaters on.

So… can someone tell me who signed this copy?

    If I had walked into a book store and saw Jesus sitting at a table signing copies of the Holy Bible, I’d turn around to see if it was raining fire and brimstone (O_o).

    I just wonder which one of us is gonna find this purchased, signed copy in their Easter Basket? I know someone’s auntie is gonna be the proud bearer of this gift.

    Also was it signed before or after it was shrink-wrapped?

      He is Jesus! He can sign it any whicha way, y’know…

    The inside cover said:

    To Luvvie with Love!

    How did I know your name? Whose son am I? Keep the laughter cacklin’ and crackin’!

    Much Love,

      What does the H. stand for? Hebrew?

      • Mrs. Roman
        March 21, 2013 at 12:25 pm

        It stands for Hallowed, apparently. At least, that’s what Christopher Moore said in “Lamb,” but he’s a humor author, so probably not the most trustworthy source.

        • May 14, 2014 at 5:10 pm

          Actually, my friend the pastors wife heard from her 6 year old daughter that it stands for Howard. As in Jesus Christ, Howard be his name!!

        Maybe it’s just a letter used so he could complete forms that need a full name, including middle initial.

        No? Okay then… (._.*}

          His full name is Jesus Hallowed-be-thy-name Christ. Facebook Name Game Proper (y’all know He’s black, right O_o).

          I hope that was a joke. His Biblical name is Jesus Son of Joseph. The word Christ means “the annointed one” and is a representation of his diety as God’s son. It is not his actual birth name.
