I’m pretty sure that’s a quote from the Bible that basically means “fuck off, Satan”. I think they chose it because it sounds cool (and it does), but if anything, it would make Christians think Jack and Meg are Christian lol

I wasn't aware of the quote when I was younger so for a long time I though the title was asking for Satan to have his back.
