Today the Traditional Catholic Church also celebrates the Feast of Holy, Saint Thomas, Apostle. He was the Apostle that doubted our Lord's Resurrection. Then he was invited by Jesus to place his fingers into His Holy Wounds. Suddenly he entered into an ardent faith, exclaiming: "My Lord and my God!" He became a great Apostolic missionary. He was also called Didymus, or the twin, he was also a fisherman of Galilee. After having been received among the apostles he accompanied Jesus in all His journeys, and uniformly showed docility, zeal, and love towards Him, particularly on the occasion of His going to Bethany, and having seen Lazarus raised from the dead by Jesus. For when the apostles were afraid to go thither, because the Jews desired to kill Jesus, Thomas, full of courage , said, “Let us also go, that we may die with Him” (John xi. 16). His faith, indeed, wavered for a moment in regard to the resurrection of Christ; but no sooner had Christ satisfied him thereof by showing His wounds, than he cried out with firm faith, “My Lord and my God.” Saint Gregory thereupon says, “God overruled the doubting of Thomas to our good, since that very doubt has profited us more than the ready belief of the other disciples, inasmuch as thereby Christ was induced to give so much clearer proofs of His resurrection, in order to confirm us in the belief of it. Saint Thomas showed the firmness of his faith by the innumerable labors which he undertook, and by the sufferings that he endured for Christ. He traversed the most extensive and remote countries, and preached Jesus to the Armenians, Medes, Persians, Parthians, Hyrcanians, Bactrians, and other barbarous and wicked nations, enduring in the course of his labors, with astonishing firmness, the greatest sufferings for the honor of God and the salvation of men. Finally he came to India, when, in the city of Calamina, or Meliapor, he underwent a glorious martyrdom, being pierced through him with lances, by order of the idolatrous priests, as he was praying at the foot of the cross. He faithfully pasted away in the first century. So much did the apostle do to repair a single fault; but we, who every day commit so many what do we do to repair them? 🤔️
