Faith is believing in the spiritual that we cannot see but know in our spirit to be more real than what we see with our physical eyes. The more we trust and believe in JESUS CHRIST the more we are entrusted with spiritual truths through the dear helper given to us when we first believe…the HOLY SPIRIT. There is no greater gift given to man than to know Him and to be known by Him.
In the measure that we believe we can receive from the very heart of the Father.
Thomas affirms what Jesus has been alluding to throughout the Gospel: Jesus is more than a teacher and a master—He is God! Faithlife Bible.
In awestruck wonder, Thomas not only believed that Christ was risen from the dead, but he also saw that the Resurrection proved His deity. NKJ Bible.
John 20:26–29 (NKJV)
26 And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, “Peace to you!” 27 Then He said to Thomas, “Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
Luke 1:45 (NKJV)
45 Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”
