What happened to Peter, Thomas and Paul after meeting the Living Jesus ?
Answer:
1. Peter turned from denial to complete loyalty
When Peter was crucified he asked that they turned the cross upside down because Peter thought to be unworthy if they should crucify him like Jesus.
Yes Peter finally fulfilled his words
To go to prison and to death for Jesus
2. Thomas the Greatest Doubter transformed into the Greatest Believer
MY LORD! AND MY GOD!!
No apostle gave stronger affirmation than Thomas
3. Saul the Greater Persecutor transformed into Paul the Greatest Missionary of the Church
Not counting his life dear to himself in the proclamation of Jesus as the Messiah

He Lives
Alan Jackson
I serve a risen Saviour, He's in the world today
I know that He is living, whatever men may say
I see His hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer
And just the time I need Him He's always near
He lives (He lives), He lives (He lives), Christ Jesus lives today
He walks with me and talks with me
Along life's narrow way
He lives (He lives), He lives (He lives), Salvation to impart
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart
In all the world around me I see His loving care
And though my heart grows weary I never will despair
I know that He is leading, through all the stormy blast
The day of His appearing will come at last
He lives (He lives), He lives (He lives), Christ Jesus lives today
He walks with me and talks with me
Along life's narrow way
He…

Further thoughts on Peter, Thomas & Paul
Peter was the greaest d\Denier
Thomas the greatest Doubter
Paul the greatest Perecutor
Peter : see how his denying was getting from bad to worse
1st Denial
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
2nd denial
72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
3rd Denial
74 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.
Thomas
He doubted at the resurrection of dead Lazarus
11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
16 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
See how Doubting Thomas mocked in disbelief.
But JESUS did raise Lazarus from the dead.
14 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
Thomas doubted because he wants all truth to be verified.
3) Saul the Persecutor
He witnessed the stoning of Stephen
He sent many Christians to jail
He breathed out vengeance
He asked for letter of authority to persecute Christians even to other Cities
ALL THREE
Peter the greater denier turned into the greatest witness & defender
32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
Thomas the greatest doubter transformed into the greatest believer
He cried, "MY LORD! AND MY GOD!!"
Paul the grestest persecutor transformed into Christianity's Greatest Missionary & Preacher!
Why?
BECAUSE HE LIVES!
