We believe!

John 20:24-31 (NIV)

In the story of Thomas and his questioning of Jesus we find some powerful and relevant truths that can help us every day.

1. Doubt is Real!

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.”

2. Jesus is Alive! He came for us.

“Peace be with you!” 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.”

Luke 19:10 (NIV)

Deuteronomy 4:29 (NIV)

3. Believe!

“28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Romans 10:17 (NIV)

4. Written for us! That we may believe…

“30 Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. 31 But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”

2 Chronicles 7:14 (NIV)
