Thomas is a skeptic.
Thomas is a rationalist.
Thomas is the world today.
Thomas was someone who didn't always believe things right away. He liked to make sure he could see or touch things before he believed in them. Some people believe in things even if they can't see or touch them, but Thomas thought it was important to use our brains to think about things too. Even if we can't see something, we can still think about it and try to understand it.
One day, Thomas saw something really amazing! He saw Jesus, who had come back to life after dying. When he saw this, he knew that Jesus was more than just a normal person - he was both God and a person at the same time.
After Jesus came back to life, he told his disciples to go and tell other people about it. That's how we still know about it today! Even though we can't see or touch Jesus ourselves. We can still use our brains to understand who he is and what he did. And we can believe in him, just like Thomas did.
We saw it and are giving our testimony, declaring to you the eternal life, which was present to the Father and has been revealed to us. (John 1:2)
