How do Christians embody the reconciliation of Jesus Christ when caught
themselves in the fray of impasse? They do what God did in Christ in the
reconciliation of the world. They do not hunker down and try to disappear, nor
do they attack and smear. They do not insult. They do not continue in
darkness when the Light of the world shines upon them. They do
not refuse the Spirit of Truth. No. The reconciliation of
the world culminates in its forgiveness, "Father forgive them, for they know not
what they do." In other words, the judgment looks like mercy. The
world was wrong, the world was guilty, the world was deceived;
nevertheless, the world was forgiven. How does this reconciliation look in
the face of impasse? It looks like mercy. Judy, I forgive you.
