1 Corinthians calls us to wait expectantly for the revelation of the Christ. The revelation of the Christ comes in time, through evolution, but it’s not automatic. We’re also called to think. Advent calls us to re-pent; the actual meaning of which, in Greek, is re-think. Our conscious expansion of awareness of the divine presence – how God lives and acts among us in our time – helps incarnate the Mystery we call Christ.
