Love for God is now being proclaimed on social networking sites as well. RIP Jesus Christ has become a trending topic on Twitter on the eve of Good Friday, the day when Christians the world over believe the son of God sacrificed his life for us, the sinners.

While some people have tweeted saying Jesus is not dead since he resurrected, there are others who think this Twitter trend is disrespectful and ridiculous.

The trend started when a Twitter user posted a tweet “RIP JESUS CHRIST” on April 1 followed by another tweet “RIP Jesus Christ of Nazareth” by another user on April 4.

However, this is not the first time that RIP has become a trending topic.

Earlier celebrities like Rihanna, Demi Moore, Eddie Murphy, Justin Bieber, Rowan Atkinson and Adele too have been victims of Twitter death hoaxes.

While RIP Jesus Christ is trending some people are thanking Jesus for sacrificing his life for the people.

Here are some tweets that have appeared on Twitter after RIP Jesus Christ started trending on the micro-blogging site.
