Are you a self-proclaimed realist who doesn’t believe in things you are unable to see with your eyes, and touch with your hands? Do you doubt the goodness of food even though its smell makes your mouth water, and the sight of it is appealing? will you refuse to call it good until you have tasted it with your tongue, and felt it’s texture in your mouth? In the circle of faith we associate such behavior with unbelievers, but I am also describing many who call themselves Christians as well. They read God’s Word, and lean towards belief, but need to touch it like Thomas did. They wait on the cusp of their salvation for a salty sip of blood from the cup of Christ which will allow them to believe in earnest.
