    Thomas is given a sign, and responds in faith.

    John 20.19-31 Thomas (who was called the Twin), one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his ...read more

    Before we hurl accusations at "Didymus," we had better check to see that it is not we in fact who are his twin. There are many who doubt Jesus in on way or another.

    “DOUBTING THOMAS” John 20:24-29 (030427e) A word on verse 23 before we look at Thomas. Commentary writer, Warren Wiersbe said the following: The “remitting” power given in v. 23 does not apply to Christians today, except in the sense that we retain or remit sins as we give sinners the Gospel. ...read more

    Using Thomas as an example of resurrected faith overcoming blinding doubt

    I know we all have heard about Thomas. “Doubting Thomas;” poor ole doubting Thomas. The guy has caught grief for 2000 years and my guess is that he will catch grief for the next 2000 years – or until the Lord returns. To be honest, I feel for the guy. Our tradition has singled him out as having ...read more

    A look at Christ’s resurrection through the New Creation imagery of John, with a look forward to our resurrection.

No wondered he smiled when I tried to give him a tip!" 9. "I was putting another denarius in the chariot meter!" 8. "With ...read more

    Would You Believe...? Series

    John repeatedly explains how critical "believing" is to the Christian. In fact he stresses faith nearly twice as much as the other 3 gospels. Why?

    (We opened with a 50 seconds cut from Don Adams in “Get Smart” - the episode called “Mr. Big” found on youtube.com - where Maxwell Smart goes into his “Would You Believe” routine.) “Would you believe?” It was one of the funnier skits that Don Adams developed for his sitcom “Get Smart”. And what ...read more
