Thomas's demand to see the nail marks refutes Jehovah's Witness teaching that Jesus rose in a different body

Please Stop Saying Faith Is Belief Without Evidence 00:32:47 – 00:33:47

Side point made while explaining the Thomas narrative.

Thomas demanded to see and touch 'the mark of the nails' — the same wounds on the body that was crucified. Mike uses this to argue against Jehovah's Witness theology, which holds that Jesus was resurrected in a spirit body different from the physical crucified body. Thomas's demand, and Jesus's fulfillment of it, implies continuity between the crucified and resurrected body.
