Have you heard the old expression "Your such a doubting thomas?" Ever wonder where it came from? Mmmm...could be that this is where it originated from. One of Christ's own disciples who doubted.
Thomas' missionary work took him to Persia, China and India. He died in about 72 AD in Chennai, India but he is best known for not believing Christ had returned after the ascension and had to place his own hands upon Christs wound sites to know it was Him. "Doubting Thomas"
