[Tablet Translated December 27, 1918]
|
O thou daughter of the Kingdom!
|
Although your letter has not yet been received, yet we do answer
it. Praise be to God, that in Japan thou hast been assisted in the
accomplishment of a distinguished service. Thou hast raised the Call of
the Divine Kingdom and hast led the people to an illumined world and
a heavenly Cause. Thou hast become the cause of enlightenment and
the wisher for the education of human souls. For those regions are in
sheer need of Divine Teachings and are endowed with sufficient capability.
Those souls must be emancipated from the obscurity of blind
imitations and be illumined by the light of heavenly instructions.
Whosoever arises for such a work, divine confirmations shall assist
him and the power of the Kingdom shall be made manifest.
|
Effort must be exerted that the East and West may be reconciled,
that the darkness of bigotry may vanish, that the unity of mankind may
be made manifest and that East and West, like unto two longing souls,
may embrace each other in the utmost love, for all are the sheep of
God and God is the Real Shepherd and is kind to every one.
|
In accordance with the wish of the attracted maid servant of God
to the love of God, Mrs. Maxwell, go thou to Canada and stay there
for a time and then hasten back to Japan for in Japan you will be assisted
and exalted.
|
Some letters are enclosed for the friends in Japan. Forward them.
