[zevrael]

For the sake of one person (me) please don’t stop making these videos. These are wonderful! I enjoy them so much and appreciate your hard work. Blessings!

I understand humans feel the strong need or desire for physical proof to understand or believe something but Jesus did so many miracles for people right in front of their faces and they still didn’t believe so it makes me feel as if we Christians had 10000% physical proof for people it still wouldn’t matter they’d still deny God. I don’t feel as if anybody should rely so much on physical proof.

[ambersoke]

Your videos have brought me closer to Christ! I thank you for your content!!!! ❤

I guess u forgot to also say the latter part of st Thomas's journey. He went to India to preach the good news and later became a matyr there. I am south india and my church is St Thomas mount, a place where St Thomas was killed by a spear. I am happy to have been born in the locality where St Thomas came and gave his life for the love of his master so that the people in India may hear the good news and be saved by the redemption of Christ.

I think that people are too hard on Thomas. I don't particularly like it when people call him, "Doubting Thomas." I would like to see how much faith they would have had in Yeshua's divinity.

[fernandomarquez]

Some of us need to understand how faith works in each individual, .

[johnalmasy]

The details of Thomas's life is very important the fact of the matter is you have Thomas was teaching gnosticism Jesus's death and Resurrection didn't affect him at all
