Faith in LORD Jesus Christ 2082Whatever. Either way, you still don't know much about it. Aren't you supposed to read it or something? He was (allegedly) a follower, a disciple of Jesus, he never doubted the existence of God...

The Holy Bible is HIS Word and not mine.
It is clear indicated that Thomas believed only what he saw.
Thomas doubted what he did not see.
It is written that when told about the risen Christ Jesus, he replied that he would not believe it until he had placed his hand into HIS side and finger through the holes of HIS hands.
Thomas stopped being an atheist when he declared:
"My LORD and my GOD!" upon seeing the risen Christ Jesus.
Indeed, Jesus affirmed that it was the seeing that led to Thomas believing by HIS saying, "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe."
My LORD is the living Word of GOD.
You will be in my prayers, dear Steve whom I love, in Jesus' most precious and holy name.
May GOD continue to draw you closer to HIM.

For those who are put off by the signature, my advance apologies for how the LORD has reshaped me:
Prayerfully in Christ's love,
Andrew
