Replying to a comment on:

In Christian Country Crosses are borne. Old is resurrected as new, And bibles bear the owner's name In gold leaf embossed with The glory that is the Lord; Sermons speak of sin, One must tithe the soul. Compunction is the order of the day; Seated in the pews Satan is staring at creeds Crucified each day by vanity.

The crucifixtion of Jesu marked His transition from a 14th level cleric to an 18th level spirit mage. Following the Resurrection, those that saw Jesu said He had changed; Mary, who met Jesu at the tomb, at first mistook Him for the gardener (18th level spirit mages are often confused with gardeners because their primary weapon is Shatner's Scythe of Destruction). It was only when He had spoken her name that she realised it was Jesu.

John 20, 15: Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

Moreover, as an 18th level spirit mage, Jesu had acquired several new special moves. He was able to walk through walls:

John 20, 19: Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

He could cast the invisibility spell:

Luke 24, 30-31: And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

And He had an in-built napkin facility, thereby allowing Him to dispense with external napkin units:

John 20, 6-7: Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
