Christ has died.
Christ has risen.
Christ will come again.

This liturgy concerning the essence of God in human form is spoken often and in many places.

I believe that Jesus Christ has been reborn, has come again - and does so every time a baby is born.  I believe that Christ has come again in every one of us.  When we hold hands at the end of Meeting, it moves me to feel that I am holding Jesus’s hands.

Christ is in every grocery store clerk, every mechanic, and every person without a job.  Christ is in everyone participating in the demonstrations on Wall Street and in every CEO many stories above them.  Christ is in every prisoner and in every prison guard.

This belief, truly held, creates much responsibility.  But it also provides the love and strength to bear that responsibility.
