Jesus said to Thomas in 20:27: “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side; do not be faithless (apistos), but believing (pistos).” The term “faithless” in greek is “apistos”, that means “unbelieving” which its opositional meaning “pistos” (believing) also appears here.
