What Would God Drive?
Most people assume WWJD is for "What would Jesus do?"
But a few enlightened individuals think the initials
really stand for "What would Jesus drive?"
One theory is that Jesus would tool around in an old
Plymouth because the Bible says God drove Adam and Eve
out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury.
But in Psalm 83, the Almighty clearly owns a Pontiac
and a Geo. The passage urges the Lord to "pursue your
enemies with your Tempest and terrify them with your
Storm."
Perhaps God favors Dodge pickup trucks, because Moses'
followers are warned not to go up a mountain "until
the Ram's horn sounds a long blast."
Some scholars insist that Jesus drove a Honda but
didn't like to talk about it. As proof, they cite a
verse in St. John's gospel where Christ tells the
crowd, "For I did not speak of my own Accord ..."
Meanwhile, Moses rode an old British motorcycle, as
evidenced by a Bible passage declaring that "the roar
of Moses' Triumph is heard in the hills."
Joshua drove a Triumph sports car with a hole in its
muffler: "Joshua's Triumph was heard throughout the
land."
And, following the Master's lead, the Apostles
carpooled in a Honda... "The Apostles were in one Accord ."
