Scripture: John 20: 24-25
But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Did’-y-mus, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.
Scripture Commentary: Through faith we believe.
There are many like Thomas in this world today; people who have to see before they believe. If you are a believer, then you do not need proof. Faith is believing in the things you cannot see, and as Christians we have faith in God. Through faith, we feel God’s presence.
Jesus told us he would go to his father, and He would send the Holy Spirit to us.
The Holy Spirit is already residing in you. If you have not accepted Christ, the Holy Spirit is still in you, but it is asleep.
Jesus tells Thomas in verse 29: “Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”
If you are skeptical, but not stubborn, then read the Bible. Study the Word of God.
Questions are good; they will guide you to answers and answers will give you the truth.
