John 20:27-28. Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side; and be not faithless, but believing. And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
And whether Thomas did put his finger into the print of his nails or not, we cannot tell. Everyone may think as he likes about that. He may have done so, or he may not, but this one thing happened, that he "answered and said unto him, ‘My Lord and my God.’" He made a splendid leap from the depths of doubt to the firm rock of confidence. With two blessed "mys" he seems to grasp Christ with both hands, and in two grand words he pictures him, "My Lord and my God."
