An epiphany—a manifestation of the divine or a sudden perception of a thing’s essential meaning or nature—calls for response, reaction.

When the Magi learned of the newborn King, they sought and worshiped him. So do we. Following Jesus' baptism, John could not help but to tell others about the Lamb of God. In our Baptism, we were made children of God and filled with the Spirit to do the same.

Paul addresses a congregation in conflict. As Christians, Christ has called us out of conflict to be what we could never be on our own. Because of this epiphany, we resolve our personal conflict in the forgiveness He has given to the whole world.
