Jesus, Money, and Abraham Lincoln

Cora, as we passed a statue of Abraham Lincoln in town:  Look!  That Jesus!

Me:  No, that's not Jesus.  That's Abraham Lincoln.

Cora:  Oh.  A-ham Wintin look like Jesus.

Henry:  No, we actually don't know what Jesus looked like.

Me:  Nope.  There were no cameras back then, and only people with lots of money could have statues made to look like them.  And Jesus didn't have a lot of money when he was on earth.

Thomas (sighing heavily):  No, he didn't have much money at all.  That's why we have to take our offering to church every week.
