Technically both are accepted, but the first example is cleaner.
Jesus' balls were on fire.

Actually, it would be Jesus's. When something ends in just the apostrophe, it is plural possessive. e.g.
Those dogs' owner is an asshole.
That dog's owner is an asshole.
Jesus's owner is an asshole.
"Jesus' owner is an asshole." ... That's wrong, unless we're talking more than one Jesus. And I think that would be Jesi anway, right?
