    Kind of a dumb question but..

    Okay so I’m reading through numbers right now, and we keep going back to the fact that a fitting sin offering is a goat. And since Jesus is also technically a sin offering on behalf of our sins, why do we call him the Lamb of God? Isn’t he kind of the Goat of God? Lol dumb question but I’m curious

    1 Corinthians 7:25-40. What does it mean??

    25 Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is. 27 Are you pledged to a woman?

    Where to find Christian Friends?

    Okay so I get along with a nice amount of people, that isn’t the issue. The problem in that I have one friend that is Christian. That’s it. All my other friends are atheists and agnostics.

    Matthew 22:41-46, question

    So in this verse I partially understand how Jesus is laying the beginnings of introducing himself as the son of God. However what confused me was how he was arguing against himself being the son of David, because isn’t he a descendant of David? If anyone could clarify that would be wonderful.
