I was thinking ... each year we celebrate Christmas, claimed by many to be the day of Jesus' birth. Everyone in the world is getting gifts from others ... even Santa Clause gets cookies and milk ... but nobody ever gets anything for the J-Man himself. This year I would like to get something for Jesus ... to let him know I care. But what to get him?
I know Christmas is still off in the distance, but I like to put a lot of thought into the actual gifts I give. I heard God doesn't play dice ... so I'm guessing the new version of Monopoly is out of the question.
Now, before any of you go blahblahblah telling me to give him my devotion, let me remind you that there are plenty of dogmatic fans of his already ... basically, "he's already got one."

Here are some of my ideas :
(1) Complete Newlyweds (Nick and Jessica) series on DVD ... there are so many channels nowadays, I doubt he managed to catch it. Should put a twinkle in his eye.
(2) A ouija board.
(3) Gift certificate for a tattoo/piercing of his choice.
(4) The Passion of the Christ DVD ... really, it's something that he'd enjoy watching over and over and over and over ... every whipping slash ... every bloody, fleshy rip ... I'm sure he's exceeding proud of Mel Gibson's accomplishment of instrumenting a scat film for mega-bucks ... capitalism at its best, right? And we know God loves the U.S.
(5) An autographed photo of George W. Bush.
(6) The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff.
Anyone else have an idea to add before I start narrowing it down to make the selection in September/October?

It's hard to tell since I did not know him personally. But, according to the myth, he loved sin so much he died for it.
In view of his love of sin, you might try adultery, murdering a few innocent people while holding up (name your favorite place to hold up), or just plain old sin such as lying, cheating & petty theft.
But, the more blatant the sin, the better he will like it.

You could plant a tree or something, save him the work. Name a planet or star for him, those are always popular around the Christmas season, don't think anyone's thought of that yet. Home made cards are always a hit. It shows you made a effort to show how much you care. Parents love it and we are his children. Nothing on the computer though, get out the construction paper and glitter glue, something for the the omnipotent fridge.

Get him an autographed copy of "Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal" by Christopher Moore. Remind him of the good ol' days when being a human was fun.

I don't think he would really dig The Passion of the Christ...you know been there...probably not the best memories.
how about The Last Temptation of Christ?
Tao of Pooh and Te of Piglet are good ideas too
I hear he likes BINGO a lot too

First there's NO "if" God IS all-powerful Matthew one million:23 Jesus is God with us and John one million:one million-three,14 Jesus our Creator and Redeemer, and in Genesis one million God made the primary day night and morning have been the primary day, night and morning have been the moment, so God counts time as from sunset to sunset, the nighttime to nighttime factor is mans suggestions no longer Gods. Genesis two God created the 7th day Sabbath, so that you and Him would come aside from this worlds cares and spend time to be together with your writer, that is for mankind's advantage, God desires a individual courting WITH YOU He is your writer and redeemer its seeing that of Love.

A Quran? Let him read up on the competition.
Ooh, a snorkling kit, in case that walking on water ever fails.

You don't need to give Him anything because everything belongs to Him. He only asks of us that we spread the gospel of salvation...So tell the world that Jesus lives today!!!!
