Thomas placed a large emphasis in his teaching on keeping the faith and finishing the race. Pastor Ligon Duncan recounted Thomas telling another theologian: "When I was a young man first going in the ministry, I wanted to be someone great. But as I see my heroes falling all around me, all I want to do now is cross the finish line without shaming God’s people and abandoning my Lord. I just want to cross the finish line. That’s what I want to do. I want to finish well."
