“O ye firm, steadfast, and faithful Believers!…”
|
O ye
firm, steadfast, and faithful Believers!
|
Verily, I, from this brilliant and Blessed Spot, speak
to you face to face, while ye are in that far distant
country, saying:
|
“O people of loyalty, O people of faithfulness, O
people who are awakened by the Breath of God, O
people who are inhaling the scent of life from the Spirit
of God! The path hath become smooth, the way
straightened, the carpet of the Kingdom is spread, the
Tabernacle hath been elevated upon the Hill of Might,
the powers of heaven have been shaken, the corners
of the earth have quaked, the sun has been darkened,
the moon ceased to give light, the stars have fallen, the
nations of the earth have lamented, and the Son of Man
hath come upon the clouds of heaven with power and
great glory, and He hath sent His angels with the
sound of the great trumpet, and no one knows the meaning
of these emblems save the wise and informed.
|
“Ye are the angels, if your feet be firm, your
spirits rejoiced, your secret thoughts pure, your eyes
consoled, your ears opened, your breasts dilated with
joy, and your souls gladdened, and if you arise to assist
the Covenant, to resist dissension and to be attracted
to the Effulgence! Verily, I say unto you that the
Word of God has assuredly been explained and has
become an evident sign and a strong and solid proof,
146
and its traces shall be spread in the East and West,
and to these all heads shall bow and all souls shall submit
and kneel down with their faces to the ground.”
