On the first of April, 2018, millions of Christians around the world celebrated Easter, the holy day of the year that marks Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, by which he proved that he is the Messiah, and the only way to salvation. In this passage we see that Thomas was at first very sceptical towards Jesus’ resurrection, and refused to trust the ...
But Jesus was not finished with him yet, just like how today he still worked in many of us, who were persistent in sin or disbelief. One week later, to his astonishment, Jesus actually appeared to Thomas in spite of his disbelief, and answered his exact demands, inviting him to touch the marks on his hands and his side, to prove that he was not jus...
All of this culminated in Thomas’ profound confession, proclaiming Jesus as his Lord and his God (John 20:28). This was definitely a fitting occasion to confess Jesus as God, since in this one act he exhibited two of God’s infinite attributes of omniscience and omnipotence, as well as a third divine attribute, the ability to grant eternal salvation...
Thomas, once a strong sceptic of the resurrection of Christ, became a powerful witness to it after seeing Jesus and his hands and side for himself. If Thomas and the disciples really had not seen Jesus risen from the dead and knew it was a lie, they would not have endured prison (Acts 5:17), beatings, torture (Acts 5:40–41), afflictions, calamities...
Jesus then answered Thomas “Have you believed because you have seen me?” as if to say “O you of little faith!” Even if Thomas never got to see the resurrection himself, he still should have trusted in the disciples’ testimony, because Jesus himself predicted his suffering, death, and resurrection before they went into Jerusalem for the last time (L...
This is a truly comforting statement for those of us who are Christians. 2,000 years ago Jesus ascended into Heaven, and we can no longer see him, hear him, or question him. The eyewitnesses of Jesus’ resurrection have also perished long ago, and we can no longer interview them on the details of what they saw and experienced. Yet, in spite of this,...
Furthermore, Jesus’ words assure us that we do not have to have some subjective experience, dream, or vision of Jesus, in order to be true Christians. To the contrary, he assures us that we are true Christians because we trust in his Word, the Bible, because of the Holy Spirit who lives within us. What God has said remains true, no matter what we s...
No doubt echoing Jesus’ words here, Peter wrote in his letter to the elect exiles in the dispersion: “Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory” (1 Peter 1:8). We have not seen Jesus, but we love him because we know that he fully pai...
