John 20:26-31

1 Corinthians 15:5b

26Eight days later, Jesus' disciples were again inside, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” 27Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and look at my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Do not doubt but believe.” 28In response Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” 29Then Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen me, have you come to believe? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.” 30Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book. 31But these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
