A church in central Auckland is auctioning one of its controversial billboards on Trade Me.
The image of Jesus Christ with a rainbow halo and the words 'It's Christmas - Time for Jesus to Come Out' is being sold by St Matthew In The City.
The auction is up to nearly $800.
It has attracted over 50 comments with some people outraged and others amused.
One person says he's bidding so he can put the billboard through the shredder.
