According to the American Heritage® Book of English Usage, Random
House, and The Chicago Manual of Style, Jesus' is correct, and
your personal preference to use Jesus's is VERY WRONG. Please
fix your personal problem and reply. thanx a ton.

I hope you are not suggesting that "Offices's" is a correct possessive.
