Believing Thomas

John 20: 19-31

April 28, 2019 • Rev. Dr. Gerrit Dawson

Inside the faith is the most honorable position for doubters. There is no such thing as standing objectively aloof from all faiths. That in itself is a faith position. It is the position that truth cannot be known, or does not exist. That is a worldview to which one commits; such agnosticism is its own kind of faith, no matter how much it hides under the cloak of “scientific objectivism.” Thomas doubted from the position of having thrown his hat into the ring. He put his heart and soul into Jesus for three years.

Parting Is Such Sweet Sorrow

If God can restore to us the years the locusts have eaten, if he can make the barren woman the mother of many children, if he can bring dead hearts back to life, he can take the broken pieces and make you whole. That doesn’t mean it won’t hurt or that you’re less of a Christian because it does hurt. Rather, it gives meaning to the hurt. It gives eternal perspective even on the worst we could do. In Christ, even our deepest divisions are redeemable. Only look to him who has promised to make all things new.
