John 20:23-27

²³if you remit anyone's sins, they have been remitted; and, if you retain them, they have been retained.”

²⁴But Thomas, one of the Twelve, called ‘The Twin,’ was not with them when Jesus came;

²⁵so the rest of the disciples said to him, “We have seen the Master!” “Unless I see the marks of the nails in his hands,” he exclaimed, “and put my finger into the marks, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it.”

²⁶A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas with them. After the doors had been shut, Jesus came and stood among them, and said, “Peace be with you.”

²⁷Then he said to Thomas, “Place your finger here, and look at my hands; and place your hand here, and put it into my side; and do not refuse to believe, but believe.”
