4 John, To the seven Churches which are in Asia: Grace be with you, and peace, from Him Who is, and Who was, and Who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne;
5 and from Jesus Christ, Who is that faithful witness and that first begotten of the dead and that Prince of the Kings of the Earth. To Him - who loved us and washed us from our sins in His blood
6 and made us kings and priests to God, even His Father—to Him, I say, be glory and dominion forevermore! Amen.
7 Behold, He comes with clouds. And every eye shall see Him (indeed, even those who pierced Him through). And all kindreds of the Earth shall wail before Him. Even so, Amen.

19 The evening of the same day (which was the first of the week), when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, “Peace to you.”
20 And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. Then the disciples rejoiced, having seen the Lord.
21 Then Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you. As My Father sent Me, so I send you.”
22 And when He had said that, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Ghost.”
23 “Whoever’s sins you forgive, they are forgiven them. And whoever’s sins you retain, they are retained.”
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve (called Didymus) was not with them when Jesus came.
25 Therefore, the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in His hands and put my finger into the mark of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe it!”
26 And eight days later, His disciples were inside again and Thomas with them. Then Jesus came (when the doors were shut) and stood in their midst, and said, “Peace to you.”
27 Afterward, He said to Thomas, “Put your finger here. And see My hands. And put forth your hand and put it into My side. And do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
28 Then Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord, and my God!”
29 Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you believe. Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
30 And Jesus also did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this Book.
31 But these things are written so that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. And that in believing, you might have life, through His Name.
