Our new kitten has been bringing out his mean side... we're working with him, but he's incorrigible! Today he walked up to the kitty and tried to throw him. I decided to try the *shock* factor on him.
Me: "Jake, if you throw Rameses you could really hurt him. It could even kill him."
Jake: "You mean he would be dead?"
Me: "Yes, and I'd be VERY sad."
Jake: "Okay."
Me: "When we die we're gone. We're not here anymore. We don't come back."
Jake: "But wouldn't he be back the next morning?"
Me: "No. When we die we're gone"
Jake: "But Jesus helps us. He helps us come back."
Me. Stumped for a minute.
Me: "Yes, he does. But not the next day. We'd still be sad about the kitty for a long time."
I'm not sure if I got through to him. But I'm glad he has some type of grasp on the resurrection. :-)
