While they did receive the Holy Ghost at this point, it was not the infilling of the Holy Ghost as on the Day of Pentecost. This was nothing more than Christ imparting the Holy Spirit for ministry in what they were about to do. NO ONE receives more than one infilling of the Holy Ghost and that is happens at conversion. So while they did receive the Spirit from Christ it was not the infilling as they received in the upper room.
29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed, BLESSED are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. 2019, we give thank to Jehovah GOD for this BLESSING.
To really know who Christ is, is to look inside His own Word: John 1, John 20:28, 1 Timothy 3:16, John 14:7-9, Hebrew 1:8, 1 John 5:7,20, isaiah 9:5-6. These are just e few of the many verses in the Bible that describes His greatness.
Brianna, here are some more KJV Bible Scriptures that proves that Jesus Christ was Almighty God. Matthew 1:23John 5:23John 8:58John 14:9-11John 10:30-33John 20:28John 14:6-72 John 1:71 Timothy 3:161 Timothy 6:14-16Hebrews 2:17-18Hebrews 4:15-16Hebrews 1:8-91 Peter 2:24John 15:13Romans 5:8Philippians 2:5-7.
30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book,31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have Life through his name.
Thomas went from cold to hot which is great.... Revelation chapter 3 says it is not good to be lukewarm. Sad to say there is a lot of these lukewarm going on today, they blow nether cold nor hot and I wonder who is really saved. Jesus said you honor me with your lips but your heart is far from me.
A Greater than Solomon is Here( Matthew 12:42, Luke 11:31) Christ is Taking About Himself. Jesus is The Greater Than Solomon. People Came From Faraway to Hear Solomon. Very Few are Coming to Hear Christ.
Alex: David Comforted Bathsheba His Wife-----She Bared a Son---David Called His Name Solomon---( 2 Samuel 12:24) Solomon Means Peace (Forty Years of Peace) A Son Shall be Born---His Name Shall be Solomon, I Will Give Peace and Quietness Unto Israel in His Days( 1 Chronicles 22:9)
YA GOTTA REALIZE THAT JESSE DAVID AND SOLOMON ARE A TYPE OF THE HEAVENLY KINGDOM THATS Y JESUS SAYS I AM THE ROOT AND THE OFFSPRING OF DAVID TH OFFSPRING OF DAVID WAS SOLOMON ( COMFORTER ) BUT THE H.G IS A GREATER KING THEN SOLOMON THUS THE H.G WILL BUILD A GREATER TEMPLE THEN SOLOMON WITH IN US AS OUR BODIES ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE H.G THATS Y JESUS SAID BEHOLD A GREATER THEN SOLOMON IS HERE GB
2 ND SAMUEL 12 DAVID AND BATHSHEBA WAS COMFORTED AT THE BIRTH OF SOLOMON THATS Y HIS NAME WAS SOLOMON MEANING A COMFORTER AND THAT Y JESUS REFERS TO THE H.G. AS THE COMFORTER HIS SEED IS GONNA RESULT IN A BIRTH OF THE H.G. IN US THATS Y HE SAYS THATS WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT THATS THE H,G OUR NEW BORN A COMFORTER THE KINGDOM THAT HAS TO COME AS LIL CHILD. WE ANSWER TO BATHSHEBA GBU .
Where in The Bible are The Scriptures to Support, 12 Times it was Prophesized that Solomon would Come out of David's Loin, in The Old Testament? The Meaning of Solomon is Not Comforter. It Means Peace, His Name Shall be Solomon, I Will Give Peace and Quietness Unto Israel in His Days( 1Chronicles 22:9)
In the O.T. 12 times it was prophecied that Solomon which means COMFORTER wd come outta David's loins and Jesus breathe on them and they received the H,G th COMFORTER,HIS BREATH WAS HIS WORD HIS SEED THAT CAME OUT OF HIS LOINS WHICH WAS THE H.G TH COMFORTER JUST AS DAVID'S SEED PROPAGATED SOLOMON COMING OUTA OF HIS LOINS,ITS THE SEED ( WORD OF CHRIST ) THAT IS GONNA PROPAGATE THE H.G IN US,A BIRTH
This is something to consider: Genesis 1:1 says "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." But in John 1:3 Jesus says that he is the one who did this. So who is right?They both are because God is Jesus and Jesus is God. John 1:1 says it like this: "... and the Word was God." And too, this is what Thomas meant in John 20:28 when he called Jesus "My Lord and my God. Amen.
John chapter 20 happened before the day of Pentecost. Pentecost meaning 50th.
Clouds are an obstruction of vision. The veil was a form of obstruction of vision. All the host of heaven were created at a different time, than Adam and Eve. The host of heaven God brought them into play as needed. Jesus would say to them I knew you from the beginning.
Dear Ray
humbly suggest you study out so-called rapture teaching. Just one scripture to get u started, in parable of wheat and tares, who goes first, and where to ?

Hello Eutychus, WHERE IS MELCHIZADEK? Psalm 90:2 "from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God". Jesus is God, John 20:28, and therefore Melchizadek seems to be an Old Testament appearance of Jesus before He appeared in the New Testament as baby Jesus. Very, very deep.
JOHN 20:11 THROUGH 17 A father CANNOT BE
11)But Mary stood ...weeping:and looked into the sepulchre, 15)Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? 17)Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ASENDED TO MY FATHER: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ASCEND UNTO MY FATHER, and YOUR Father; AND TO MY GOD, and YOUR God.
Anne; thank you for your good words! Without faith it is impossible to please Him! God has ordained that we should be saved by BELIEVING the Word told us by other men. So then, unbelief is disobedience! Jesus reproached the disciples for unbelief and hardness of heart, because they didn't believe those who told them that He was risen from the dead! Faith is about a kind of character toward God.
Thomas was not with the disciples when Jesus came among them and spoke to them and showed them his hands and side. Therefore, when he was told by the others that Jesus was risen, needed faith to believe it for himself. Today, we must have faith to believe that Christ is risen indeed. For without faith it is impossible to please God and with the heart man believeth unto righteousness...( Heb. 11:6).
Hi Cheryl; I think the answer you look for is in the verse itself! "I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written...but these are written that you might believe" The Holy Spirit moved the holy Apostles and Prophets of the Lord to write everything that they did. The Lord has very much more to say to us when we are able to bear it!
30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book,31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have Life through his name.
