Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Jubilee Year of Mercy
January 31, 2016
Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Rave reviews greeted Jesus’ first hometown homily
proclaiming a year of God’s mercy, but the mood turned violent
when he went on to declare that God’s mercy embraces
outsiders; it rejects distinctions between citizen and foreigner,
acceptable and unworthy, even sinner and saint. Far from being
anyone’s personal possession, God’s kingdom is open to
everyone, God’s love unconditional, God’s mercy boundless. By
this Jubilee Year of Mercy, Pope Francis repeats Jesus’
challenge in today’s Gospel to broaden our
horizons until our vision matches Jesus’
vision of every sinner as a potential saint,
and each suffering stranger as our
neighbor. Jesus, says Pope Francis,
continually went beyond the law, keeping
company with public sinners and even
sharing meals with them to demonstrate
that God’s mercy is “the beating heart of
the Gospel” (Misericordiae Vultus, 12). To
be truly Jesus’ disciples, such
unconditional love and boundless mercy
must also be at the center of all we say
and do.
