The Bible describes Thomas as a disciple who expressed doubt about Jesus' resurrection but ultimately declared Jesus as 'My Lord and my God' when he encountered the risen Christ.
In John 20:24-29, we see Thomas, one of the twelve disciples, expressing doubt after the resurrection. He stated that he would not believe unless he physically touched Jesus' wounds. His doubt serves as a reminder of the human struggle with faith. However, after Jesus appeared to him, he proclaimed, 'My Lord and my God,' recognizing the deity of Christ. This response illustrates the journey from doubt to belief, emphasizing that faith is ultimately a gift from God. His story teaches us that doubts may arise, but a genuine encounter with Christ can transform our hearts.
