Theology/Halloween Lesson

I was singing a song, "Forgiven of our sins. Baptized by the water. Filled by the Holy Ghost. Washed by the blood of the Lamb." Cal asked, "What do you mean 'lamb?'" I said, "Jesus is called the lamb of God because he sacrificed himself for us. So now we call him the Lamb of God." Cal said, "But Jesus IS God." I said, "Yes, he is God. He's not really a lamb. He's just called a lamb." Cal asked, "How will he grow white stuff on himself?" I said, "He's not really a lamb, Cal." Cal asked, "Will he dress up as a lamb on Halloween?"

And since I had that song stuck in my head, I sang it again....

Cal asked, "Did you just say 'ghost?'"

Great.
