Agnus Dei John20:1-9
+Areadingfromtheholy
GospelaccordingtoJohn
On the evening of that
first day of the week, when the
doors were locked, where the
disciples were, for fear of the
Jews, Jesus came and stood in
their midst and said to them,
"Peace be with you." When he
had said this, he showed them his
hands and his side. The disciples
rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
Jesus said to them again, "Peace
be with you. As the Father has
sent me, so I send you." And
when he had said this, he
breathed on them and said to
them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you
retain are retained." Thomas,
called Didymus, one of the
Twelve, was not with them when
Jesus came. So 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 nailmarks and put my hand
into his side, I will not believe."
Now a week later his disciples
were again inside and Thomas
was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and
stood in their midst and said,
"Peace be with you." Then he said
to Thomas, "Put your finger here
and see my hands, and bring your
hand and put it into my side, and
do not be unbelieving, but believe." Thomas answered and said
to him, "My Lord and my God!"
Jesus said to him, "Have you
come to believe because you
have seen me? Blessed are those
who have not seen and have believed." Now, Jesus did many
other signs in the presence of his
disciples that are not written in this
book. But these are written that
you may come to believe that
Jesus is the Christ, the Son of
God, and that through this belief
you may have life in his name.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord
Jesus Christ
