New Testament

John 20:22-26 English Standard Version (ESV)

22. And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

23. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you withhold forgiveness from any, it is withheld.”

24. Now Thomas, one of the Twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

25. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.”

26. Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”
