> *Friends, in our Gospel for today, drawn from St. John’s account, Jesus
> shows his disciples the wounds of his crucifixion, and then he offers them
> shalom (peace). It is the juxtaposition of the wounds and the shalom that
> carries power. The wounds alone would leave us afraid, convinced of our sin
> but not of a way out. The shalom alone would leave us with cheap grace, a
> too easy way out. And this is precisely why, immediately after uttering
> that word and showing those wound*s, Jesus sends the disciples on a
> mission of forgiveness:
>
> *"Then he breathed on them and said, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you
> forgive men’s sins they are forgiven them; if you hold them bound, they are
> held bound.’" The Church receives its essential mission and identity as the
> bearer of the divine forgiveness. We have been entrusted with speaking the
> shalom of Jesus to a fallen and hopeless world. But it’s not cheap grace
> that we share. We participate in Jesus’ mission of showing his wounds as
> well. The Church refuses to explain sin away or make excuses for it or call
> it by another name. But when those wounds are revealed, it offers peace.*
