Tonight, we started reading a children's version of the Old Testament with our kids. The first chapter dealt with Lucifer's fall--and Lucifer becoming Satan. Not surprisingly, Andrew was a little concerned by this. (I don't think he'd thought of the concept of a "devil" before). He had all sorts of questions (most of which aren't relevant to this post), but his questions led me to mention that, during the Second Coming, Satan will be bound.
This caught his interest. "When will Jesus come again?" I explained that we didn't know. "What will he do when he comes?" I mentioned one or two things.
Then Andrew asked, "What would we do if Jesus came back and was mopping our floors?"
Um, that's a good question. Not exactly how I would picture the Second Coming, though.
