We live always in Advent. We are always waiting
for the messiah to come. The messiah has come,
but is not yet fully manifest. The messiah is not
fully manifest in each of our souls, not fully manifest
in humankind as a whole: that is to say, that just as
Christ was born according to the flesh in Bethlehem
of Judah, so must he be born according to the spirit
in each of our souls.
