    Waiting To See

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 19, 2023
     | 1,215 views

    The Lord Jesus intentionally chose a skeptic as one of the 12. Jesus proved beyond any shadow of doubt to the rationalist, Thomas, that He was resurrected from the dead. Thomas died preaching Him in India, because he knew that, "Nailprints don't lie!"
