Have not seen! | |
Some must see to believe; many have never seen yet choose to believe! This is a KJV Bible study guide. John 20:24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. John 20:25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the LORD. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe. John 20:26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. John 20:27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. John 20:28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My LORD and my God. (Now finally Thomas is declaring who Jesus is. Jesus was God; see John 1:1 and 1:14. The disbelief of the apostle is the means of furnishing us with a full and satisfactory demonstration of the resurrection of our Lord. Throughout the divine dispensations every doctrine and ever important truth is gradually revealed; and here we have a conspicuous instance of the progressive system. An angel first declares the glorious event; the empty sepulcher confirms the women's report. Christ's appearance to Mary Magdalene showed that he was alive; that to the disciples at Emmaus proved that it was at the least the spirit of Christ; that to the eleven showed the reality of his body; and the conviction given to Thomas proved it the self-same body that had been crucified. Incredulity itself is satisfied; and the convinced apostle exclaims, in the joy of his heart, "My Lord and my God.)" John 20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. (Jesus tells Thomas, "You believe because you have seen Me." Implying that Thomas never really put his finger in the wound of Jesus, but all he actually needed was to see Him. "Blessed are those who believe without seeing Me." This blessing refers to us today. We only have the scriptures, and we as Christians are believers. Faith and belief comes from hearing the Good News about Christ). Luke 11:28 Blessed are they that hear the Word of God and keep it. (Meditate on it and remember what you have learned). 2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Faith comes from hearing the whole word of God. Are you hearing the word of God where you go to church or are you hearing traditions and commandments of men that make the word of God void? If you are not hearing the word of God then you are wasting your time. These are a few of the many other pertinent verses on this particular topic: Isaiah 29:13; Matthew 15:1-9;Mark 7:11-13. We are commanded to study God’s word, see 2 Timothy 2:15. You can learn things that you will never hear in church). Romans 10:18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. The natural man must know in order to believe; the spiritual man must believe in order to know.
