Not Seeing, Yet Believing John 20:24-31 Pastor Keone

Trivia Question: What state is known as the ‘Show Me’ state?

John 20:24-25 24 Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."

John 20:24-25 Thomas is a realist! 24 Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it." Thomas is a realist!

John 20:26 26 A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!"

John 20:27 27 Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe."

‘Stop becoming an unbeliever and become a believer!’ John 20:27 27 Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe." ‘Stop becoming an unbeliever and become a believer!’

John 20:28-29 28 Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!" 29 Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."

We are the blessed who have not seen, yet have believed! John 20:28-29 28 Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!" 29 Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." We are the blessed who have not seen, yet have believed!

Takeaways It’s okay to ask God for proof. The decision to believe or not believe is always before us. When we believe, we are recipients of His special blessing.
