THOMAS DECLARES JESUS AS GOD, AND JESUS DOES NOT DENY BEING CALLED GOD

 

John 20:28

Thomas answered Him, “My Lord and my God!”

When Thomas said this, the Lord Jesus did not refute it or say, “I am not God.” Instead, Jesus responded:
“Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” (John 20:29).

If Thomas was lying or mistaken, why didn’t Jesus correct him? Instead, Jesus affirmed Thomas’s declaration of faith.

All faith traditions agree that Jesus never sinned and had no sin. To claim divinity falsely would have been blasphemous and sinful. Therefore, by accepting Thomas’s declaration, Jesus affirmed His divine identity. This serves as undeniable biblical evidence that Jesus is God.
