Bible. John
020:025 So the rest of the disciples told him, "We have seen
the Master!" His reply was, "Unless I see in his hands
the wound made by the nails and put my finger into the wound,
and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it."
020:026 A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas
was with them, when Jesus came--though the doors were locked--
and stood in their midst, and said, "Peace be to you."
020:027 Then He said to Thomas, "Bring your finger here and feel my hands;
bring you hand and put it into my side; and do not be ready
to disbelieve but to believe."
020:028 "My Lord and my God!" replied Thomas.
020:029 "Because you have seen me," replied Jesus, "you have believed.
Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
020:030 There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus
performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not
recorded in this book.
020:031 But these have been recorded in order that you may believe that He
is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing,
you may have Life through His name.
021:001 After this, Jesus again showed Himself to the disciples.
It was at the Lake of Tiberias. The circumstances were as follows.
021:002 Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of
Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of
the Master's disciples.
021:003 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." "We will go too,"
said they. So they set out and went on board their boat;
but they caught nothing that night.
021:004 When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach,
though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
021:005 He called to them. "Children," He said, "have you any
food there?" "No," they answered.
021:006 "Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you
will find fish." So they threw the net in, and now they
could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.
021:007 This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is
the Master." Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words,
"It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt--
for he had not been wearing it--put on his girdle, and sprang
into the water.
021:008 But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they
were not far from land--only about a hundred yards off),
dragging the net full of fish.
021:009 As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there,
with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.
021:010 Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they
had just caught.
021:011 So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore
full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there
were so many, the net had not broken.
