[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in our Gospel today Jesus says matter-of-factly, before healing
the paralytic, "Child, your sins are forgiven." Shocked, the Pharisees
respond, "He is blaspheming. Who but God alone can forgive sins?"They were
quite right, *of course, which is the whole point*. If you had hurt me, I
could with some legitimacy offer you my personal forgiveness of your
offense. But if someone else had harmed you, I could scarcely offer that
person my forgiveness for his sin. *The only way that such a statement
could be anything but blasphemous would be if I were the one who is
offended in every sin. And this is what the Pharisees correctly intuited.

*G.K. Chesterton said that even those who reject the doctrine of the
Incarnation (like the Pharisees) are different for having heard it. *The
claim that God became one of us changes the imagination, compelling a
reassessment of both God and the world.

*This odd assertion is made, implicitly or explicitly, on practically every
page of the New Testament.*
*Therefore, when Jesus forgives the paralytic’s sin, the Pharisees respond
that only God can forgive sins, thereby, despite themselves, professing
faith in the Good News.*

*Krisztus lelke, szentelj meg engem! Krisztus teste, üdvözíts engem!
Krisztus vére, ihless meg engem! Krisztus oldalából kifolyó víz, moss
tisztára engem! Krisztus kínszenvedése, erősíts meg engem! Ó, jóságos
Jézus, hallgass meg engem! Szent sebeidbe rejts el engem! Ne engedd, hogy
elszakadjak tőled! A gonosz ellenségtől oltalmazz engem! Halálom óráján
hívj magadhoz engem! Add, hogy eljussak hozzád, és szentjeiddel dicsérjelek
téged, mindörökkön-örökké. Ámen.  (Loyolai Szt. Ignác)*
