A controversial billboard featuring Donald Trump and Jesus which has gone viral is to be resurrected after the original sign was stolen from outside a church.
The entire board including its corflute sign and wooden backing was stolen on Thursday while minister Glynn Cardy of St Luke's Church in Remuera was conducting a funeral service.

The cartoon of US presidential candidate Donald Trump standing in front of the crucified Jesus holding a hammer saying 'I don't like losers' has hit a nerve with people around the world after going viral, featuring on overseas websites, shortly after it was put up two weeks ago.
"It went offshore quite quickly with both Republican and Democratic [party] sites picking it up. When Trump was in Arizona last week one of the churches in Arizona had distributed this to their members. We know it is going around the world," Rev Cardy said. It also features on a number of Christian websites including Christian Today and Christian Post.
