And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served (that were beyond the flood) or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell: but I and mine house will serve the Lord.
Then the people answered and said, God forbid, that we should forsake the Lord, to serve other gods.
Joshua 24:15-16 The Holy Bible, Geneva 1599

Re: Doubting Thomas: Doubter or Man of Faith?
|
Thank you for the invitation!
My 2 cents? Doubter. John is clear in his Gospel record concerning Thomas, in John 20:24-25 we read:
"But Thomas (who was called the Twin),
one of the twelve,
was not with them when Jesus came.
So the other disciples told him,
"We have seen the Lord."
But he said to them,
"Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands,
and put my finger in the mark of the nails
and my hand in his side,
I will not believe." NRSV
But let us not forget the mercy and grace Jesus showed Thomas the next week...verse 27
Praise God!
Praise God for we are all much like Thomas!
