Peace Be With You: Jesus Appears to His Disciples (John 20:19–23)
On the evening of the first day after His resurrection, the disciples gathered behind locked doors. Jesus suddenly stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” He showed them His hands and His side, and they were overjoyed at seeing the risen Lord. Again He greeted them with peace and gave them a mission: “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” Then He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.” He also entrusted them with the authority to forgive sins, declaring that those whose sins they forgive are forgiven.
