Aha! I see what you've done there. Obviously this takes place after your earlier sketch with the whole recurring character thing. Nice touch (in the context of a whole show, I mean!)

I think the 'You haven't been coverting your neighbour's ass, have you?' line wouldn't fit in unless he clearly changed demeanour and became quite worried as he said it. ie, put a few pauses into that line so you don't 'break' the character you've built:

JESUS (CONCERNED): You've... erm... not been... erm... coverting your... erm... neighbour's ass... have you?

and where he asks him about graven images, be more explicit in what he's been worshipping (a golden blind dog or something much funnier than that poor example)

I like that you sort of end it and then have a 'bonus quickie' at the end. That bit could even be a separate sketch, with the two recurring characters meeting up later in a show.

Hope this helps

Dan
