 It's up to Thomas whether he believes or not. And Lord Jesus, it's up to us whether we believe or not. The disciples had the testimony of Mary Magdalene and those women who were with her. St. Thomas had the testimony of the other apostles. And we have the testimony of the whole church and all the saints and all the martyrs and the testimony, Lord, of the beauty of your teaching, the beauty of the gospels, the testimony of all the miracles of the saints.
