It technically doesn't address Jesus as Thomas didn't say "You are the god." You also haven't demonstrated why it needs to be capitalized and why Jesus responded with a rebuke immediately afterwards, suggesting that Thomas is not blessed.
Read the context beginning in verse 7. Jesus isn't the throne-sitter.
“The God” is precisely what he said! Anytime you have ὁ Θεός, it literally means “the God” in Greek, which when translated to English is always written as God. (The only exception to this that I can recall is 2Cor 4:4, where Satan is called “the god of this world”. There may be other examples that refer the deities of other people that I don’t recall off the top of my head.)
Didn’t say that he was the one “on the throne”; I am saying that both the one seated on the throne and the Lamb, Jesus, are the ones being worshipped. Grammatically, they are a corporate subject of worship.
Even if Thomas was meaning to address Jesus, it would would identify Jesus as the god Thomas, but no one else in the Bible. It's not repeatable either. Jesus never taught anyone that he is the God, no one else called him the God, John and Peter didn't believe Jesus is the God (Acts 4:23-31) and many other examples. You're likely misunderstanding the context since the Bible only teaches about the Father being God alone.
In John 20:24, Thomas said “Unless I see the nail marks in His hands, and put my finger where the nails have been, and put my hand into His side, I will never believe.” and after Thomas' "my god" comment, Jesus didn't reply with praise, but rather by telling Thomas he isn't blessed for his doubting attitude “Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
Doesn't say any such thing about the the Lamb being worshipped. It says the One on the throne and the Lamb have praise and honor and glory and power, but no mention of a shared worship. Actually, they are only worshipping physically around the throne where the Lamb is not. The Lamb is probably worshipping God with them if I had to guess.
Wrong!
He didn’t say Thomas wasn’t blessed, he said Thomas didn’t believe the reports that Jesus was risen until he actually saw him at that moment; but “blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
That's a different throne. See verse 7 "He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne." and there is no mention of returning to the other throne. The elders were worshipping at a different throne while the Lamb was presumably either standing off to the side or worshipping God with them. I have a handful of trinitarian commentaries that agree with this by the way. Let me know if you need me to show you.
No it isn't. Did you know believers receive praise in the Bible? You're conflating words again. You attempted to do it with honor in John 5, now you're trying to do it with praise in Revelation 5. I think you're just making things up as you go along at this point.
Thomas said "Unless I see I will never believe."
If we must honor the Son just as we honor the Father (John 5:23), then worshiping Jesus isn’t wrong — it’s required.
John 5:22,23 says the reason why Jesus is honored is because he is the appointed judge, not because he is God. Judgement in the Bible is delegated many times (Exodus 18:26, Deuteronomy 1:17, Psalm 81:1-17, etc) but delegation does not imply deity.
