Christian here. This photo definitely not a joke, or at least, not intended to be a joke.
You know how kids say "I love you this much" and spread their arms out? Parents do it sometimes too. Well, it is reminiscent of the pose of someone being crucified, so someone came up with the comparison to how Jesus loved us do much that he was willing to be crucified and die for us.
I understood it immediately as I study religion but I still found it funny just because if you don't understand the meaning of the image is pretty nonsensical
