Likewise, I believe some are frightened to lean on the Spirit and instead want things to make sense, either by figuring it out themselves or by having someone else reason with them why a thing is this way or that. They are like the Greeks in the above passage.
We should remember that doubting Thomas was an apostle, too. Someone who needs the assurance of an edifice or organization or mentor or teacher or leader today - may not, over time.
So we ought to be patient, because as he says, the ones who are called will know Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
Saintly Spirit-led wisdom, as always--or virtually always! LOL.
Thanks much. Will ask for a booster shot on the patience thing. LOL.
